keepturningleft Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 A programme on BBC2 yesterday called Nation On Film about amateur films from the 1930's, featured a few seconds of speedway. I couldn't identify the track. Did anyone else see it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team Man Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 I saw it too, unfortunatly I didn't tape it. It looked like Late 20's early 30's as they were douglas machines and they were leg trailing, in one sequence they had big Stars on their backs if anyone can recall that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone Posted March 12, 2005 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 The BBC has a website where you can download film clips from the programmes. Try :- .nation on film It mentions a a 30 second silent Motorcycling - Scrambling shot. As I'm not au fait with downloading film clips perhaps someone else can try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
