Mateusz Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 Cracking meeting from Poznan. Thought Bydgoszcz had it in the bag with a couple of heats to go. I nearly had a heart attack watching this match. Expected another easy win but what we got was a last heat decider! Some Bydgoszcz riders looked like complete amateurs in first heats at this tricky Poznan track... Thankfully Polonia made it after all. Don't forget to check out www.itv24.com.pl tomorrow night PS. Damn, I start loving these Division 1 away meetings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mateusz Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 Thanks for that, just found out it has been cancelled. But the result's been approved (must be 8 heats at least). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subedei Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 Isn't that the second Gdansk meeting to be ratified after just 8-9 heats? I think last week was exactly the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, I would be more than willing to send you some from Ipswich to say thank you for the excellent service you bring to the UK.

Just let me know if possible :-) Hi Lawrence, unfortunately my team (Wimbledon) no longer run. I have only been to a couple of meetings this season and the only program I have is from the British U-21 final which I will gladly bring along. If it's of interest. We are really looking forward to the weekend, it can't come quick enough. I'm sure Rico will do the introductions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradford Ace Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 Just watched the Gorzow v Leszno meeting this afternoon & was quite surprised at how small the track is there compared 2 what u expect Polish tracks 2 be like. Having seen most of the Ekstraliga ones now & also quite a few in the 1st Division it looks to be the smallest & tightest circuit i've seen so does anyone have the actual track sizes in metres 2 compare?? Cracking little stadium tho with a lovely stand down the back straight that makes viewing very good i would guess. Not the best ever but pretty decent & good 2 see the master Mr Gollob carrying on from where he left off last week at the GP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iris123 Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 (edited) TBH i watched a few meeting from Gorzów last season and none were very good.

Stockholm is 372, used to be 387 and had been for ages, until someone decided to measure it another time last season. Wonder where those 15 metres went? Any track under 300m should be banned!
