Just read through the article and pictures Racer X did of the speedway races at Costa Mesa Speedway. Holy hell, that looks like a good time! Well done, Davey

I was there last saturday. Me and my girlfriend had awesome time(She's in the video btw)
Things happens fast in those events
No shit, fishing line and bubblegum wrappers for bikinis. Not enough the cover the nips, and barely enough to cover the lips.
And the racing never disappointed. Those guys go for it.
Bought a RMZ250 from a guy a few weeks ago and this was in his garage. I was there a long time just listening to his racing stories.

I've always wanted to try it since watching that.
It was always part of the show. Like Nitro at Nhra events. That smell. It smelled like racing. Addictive. Maybe worse than drugs.
Motocross lost alot of that when it set the rules to make 2 strokes not competitive in their classes.

You get paid per point mostly,doing a deal at the start of the season but there's a league in Sweden on Tuesdays which you can earn at again,and many of the top guys do the Polish league on a Sunday,the schedule can really heavy but lucrative.Put it this way,I raced pro for quite a few years,never did the Polish League but made a living at it ok,sadly it put me in a chair but wouldn't change it,when it's going well there's no better job than racing bikes afterall
Hey live Speedway on now,British Elite League at Arena Essex,probably the smallest track over here actually Sky Sports 2

Used to go every tuesday to Leicester when i was a kid , no silencers or dirt deflectors back then .
I live 15 mins from Brandon, but not been for ages , but never miss a match on TV , as its ideal midweek entertainment , GP's i can take or leave , although i have been to Cardiff, when Woffinden came in for a reserve ride in heat 20 , and led for 2 1/2 laps..the roof nearly came off.
Sorry you took a bad one , who did you ride for and when , will have seen you at some point for sure.
My ride:
Great to see Leicester running again in the Elite League but I think Coventry's days might be numbered,I was at Rye House,Edinburgh,Oxford,Ipswich and Exeter,my crash was at Newport in 2002,Oxford 98/99 and Ipswich 2000 Elite league would've been on Sky Sports I guess,
Jake only lives across town,Guy sponsors a lot of riders,Jake did a Grasstrack last year,it's only a matter of time before he has a skid,that'll be interesting!
You should give it a try if you can Phil,what a buzz,totally alien to anything else though Supermoto included!
