bill361808 Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 For the Russian guys on this forum. Do you know if there are any plans for more teams to be formed over there. My wife's from Volgograd and we visit a couple of times a year, would be good if something was going on in the area. Motor sport is catching on there, kart club formed and racing on a circuit laid out in the car park of the football stadium. Car 1/4 mile drag racing on an old airstrip, plenty of youngsters are car and motorsport mad. We've just got back and have been given a tour of various activities which will again be run from April to September. Several sites in the city would make for good speedway.

We visit a couple of times a year, an express train trip from Volgograd to Vladivostok takes 7 DAYS. It's a slightly bigger country than England.....................

iris123 Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 (edited) 7 teams competed in the league this year. Those were Togliatti, Oktyabrsky, Vladivostok, Balakovo, Salavat, Rivne and (another) Balakovo. Looks like the league is down to just 5 teams this year.Togliatti,SK Turbina Balakovo,Vladivostok,Salavat and Chervonograd(Ukraine)which is near to the Polish border and a fair trek from Vladivostok!!!

I was thinking of those articles when he led a campaign in the SLP at the end of 2005 to try and save Wimbledon Speedway. Did you participate in that effort with a response... The first "Russian' rider I saw was 'Igor Baranov" at New Cross in the early 1960s. Guess things have moved on since then under Mr Putin? What exactly does your comment in Russian text mean? So far as I can make out it reads as follows: The national league of [spidveya] represents the rating of the racers of the open command championship of Russia on by the [spidveyu] Can you confirm for me? Many thanks. Edited April 9, 2008 by speedyguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had a rethink - it says that 'Sprouts Elder rode for Wimbledon in 1930.' (joke of course!) I think it translates as 爸 妈 哥 弟 姐 妹 对 不 起 没 关 系 谢 明 天 休 息 会 儿 吧 as we say in China! Yes, that could be P1928's Russian quote translated into Chinese. Edited April 10, 2008 by speedyguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HenryW Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 The first match in the new season was completed a day late today, and "new" boys Chervonograd took a relatively easy win over Togliatti, 51-39. Togliatti only had one man able to win races, with Saijfutdinov grabbing 17 from 6 rides. His only defeat came at the hands of Shakter's top man, Magnus Zetterstrom, who bagged a 12 point max. Andrey Karpov also joined Zetters on 12, but took 5 rides to get that score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
