.*EMMA*. Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 Good Luck Finland and Kauko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomhaines Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 I can see this one being quite a battle. Finland have gone pretty well in previous SWC competitions. The Germans are usually strong and the Italians have home advantage. Don't know anything about Latvia, but i assume they are favourites to finish 4th?

mauro2107 Posted June 30, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 I'll be there - anyone got tips for finding the stadium? (we'll be in a hire car heading from Verona) Hi, Out of the airport you take motorway direction VENEZIA (VENICE). After 40 km. you take exit at MONTEBELLO VICENTINO. You follow sign LONIGO (about 5 km.) and when you will be in the town you follow the signpost SPEEDWAY or IMPIANTI SPORTIVI. Track is located apprx. 1 km. to Lonigo centre.

TwoMinuteWarning Posted June 30, 2004 Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 LATVIAN TEAM :1. Andrey Korolew 2. Kjastas Puodzuks 3. Leonid Paura 4. Nikolay Kokin 5. ? Great to see Latvia continuing to enter the SWC, even though they have only one track. Pity the USA aren't in it any more. Nikolai Kokins seems to have been riding for a long time - how old is he?
