spiegal Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 Just back from putting together our 2008 Speedway tour to California. Some amazing racing at both INDUSTRY HILLS and FAST FRIDAYS. Also met up with teh promotions of Costa Mesa and Victorville. More passing in 1 race than an entire Elite League match,some brilliant promoting ideas and enthusiasm. Kids of 8yrs racing between the main events and believe me they can race, and some wonderful 15 year old talent. Add full stadiums, 180yd tracks,super food..not the cr*p we get, 30 races a night and for way less than what you pay for a PL fixture.And the very top names incl Hancock,Hamill,Schwartz,Larsen,Venegas,Faria,Bast etc.etc. Best of all was to see and chat with the legendary John Cook who is now almost fully fit and as interesting and friendly as always. Maybe Phil Rising will allow me page in the Star to fill you in with the details......but one last point On leavinG Fast Friday's the promoter Dave Joiner was at the main gate thanking everyone and "Looking foward to seeing ya'all next week....now that is class.

SteveEvans Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 Was good to meet up with you at Industry Hills, and can't wait for a load of Brits to come to watch the racing at Victorville on next years tour.

SW17 Bulldog Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 I know of speedway in New York, but other than that is it all West Coast. In Florida in October, and clutching at straws but anything in that area? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Florida in October, and clutching at straws but anything in that area? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The only likely speedway in Florida will be at Daytona next year. Probably organised by the French Canadian rider Marc Gauthier and Brad Amburgey. There was a plan for speedway at Dade City, Florida, in 2008 - with Gauthier and Colin Sanders running things. However, since Colin's accident that plan has probably been shelved. Track owner at Dade City is former flat-track rider Randy Yoho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And areawise, that's bigger than England. So, there is some traveling between the tracks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
