That was a good time, It has been so long since I have been to a Speedway race! Lindback is my new hero. He was the only rider that seemed to get anywhere riding the outside, too bad it ended the way it did. I am also bummed that Sayfutinov couldn't make it, that kid is impressive.

Austin Novratil .. expect big things from this kid

Hans Andersen running a little wide

villageidiot · 12-31-2012, 12:35 PM

out of all the youngsters coming up from the USA, i think Austin has a good shot. he rides fast, smart, and with enough guts to make it happen. now if we could get hm on some better equipment, hed be a real threat.

ricky is making it happen over there, and i am stoked to see some of our young kids coming up.

when i was riding speedway in the early 2000's, i remember being at maely's ranch, and little ricky at age 8 or 9, would go out and run the 500cc bike better than i ever thought i would ever be able to.

i knew he was going to go places, and it looks like hes doing well for wolverhampton

What kind of horsepower do these things have these days?

villageidiot · 12-31-2012, 01:35 PM

If the event doesn't at least get posted to youtube after the fact, it might as well have not happened.

villageidiot · 12-31-2012, 01:45 PM

actually, it was broadcast on a webcast/ppv situation on industryracing.com

villageidiot · 12-31-2012, 04:08 PM

So good

r77toy · 12-31-2012, 07:39 PM

How much would you have been willing to pay?
Nationals at Costa Mesa were $20
1/2 mile at Pomona was $44
I've never seen a Speedway event in the US with the pits so accessible.

villageidiot · 12-31-2012, 07:45 PM

Pomona was 75 bucks with full infield passes and was able to watch from inside turn 2.

I'd have paid easily 40 for a grandstand seat for Saturday.

I'd pay 150 a seat for a speedway gp on us soil, on a "proper" size track

JeffS77 · 01-01-2013, 09:36 AM

for a real GP I would be willing to go up to $100+ if it was at a real stadium on a real GP sized track.
