I was wrong
« on: April 23, 2011, 10:08:09 pm »
After having no interest of ever seeing a speedway bike in the flesh and thinking "Eric Bana's take on Nascar...turn left....turn left"
Well i have to admit i was wrong  :D
They were fantastic even to the point of copping and eye full of dirt trying to take this pic :D


So to you speedway and dirt trackers...i salute you  ;)

It takes a man to admit they're wrong mr Monaro, especially as wrong as that but at least you've finally seen the light.
Those last two shots are of Allan Jones, any sightings of Firko on the flattracker?

Monaro set aside a day next season to view the  Vic classic speedway titles at Broadford and see them really racing together! ;) Four blown Vincents and JAP 88s  bellowing on the start line................ :o

He was having dramas with the ignition on Sat. Dunno if he sorted them.

The good thing about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember what you said.
