TwoMinuteWarning Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 According to the latest entry on the blog at http://speedwaymalaysia.blogspot.com/ , Linden Warner is helping with the training in KL. I'm sure there are plenty of Rye House fans around from the late 80's / early 90's who will remember Linden! This is not the first attempt to set up speedway in Asia. That was in 1930, in Singapore - see http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/space4/singapore.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedwaymalaysia Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 thanks for the tiscali site which showed that the first race was held in singapore in 1930... it looked like it was a one-off attempt of one race... the malaysians will have to re-angle their claims to as follows: "Organising the first Asian Speedway race in the modrn era of Speedway racing." or "Organising the first ever Speedway championship in Asia." ...both these statements are true.

whowasthatberntpersson Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 I'd love to visit Malaysia again, to watch speedway will be a huge bonus. Hope speedway kicks off in Malaysia, a truly great country with fantastic food and friendly people..and not that far from Australia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sir Lunchalot Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 I see the first 500cc bike ridden by a Malaysian has "Sitera" on the back of the saddle, wonder where Ivan got that from ? Actually it's a crying shame for me, I was in Kuala Lumpur in the last week of June for work ... three weeks too early You would never believe where our office is in KL, Technology Park in Bukit Jalil not far from the sports centre !!
