JamesHarris Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 Hi, I'm doing some research into World Finals and after a bit of help please. Does anybody know what the track length was in Malmo for the 1961 World Final? Many thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sotonian Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 I've always wondered why Malmo was chosen in the first place as I don't believe it was exactly a speedway hotbed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norbold Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 Aha, I thought, I'll be able to answer this as I have the programme for the 1961 World Final.....but, sadly, the track length is not mentioned anywhere in it. Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry. We USED to have the programme, but my parents dumped a lot of the stuff when I was a kid... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sotonian Posted September 22 Report Share Posted September 22 The 1967 WTC was also held in Malmo. If it was the same track then maybe that programme could help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, there is a Swedish guy called Omar Nilsson who lives in Sweden and posts old photos regularly. He may be able to help you find this information if it's available in any Swedish Speedway archives. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
