Description

THIS discussion group is dedicated to the years between 1928-80.

IT COVERS vintage speedway racing (1928-39) and the years 1945-1980 as well as the 'war years' 1940-45.
Other aspects of speedway dealt with are sidecar racing, grass track racing, long-track racing, ice racing/ice speedway, midget car racing and cycle speedway.

MEMBERS are encouraged to use the following sections - Files, Photos, Links, Polls, Classified Free Advert - but adverts must be within the objectives of the forum. The guide to these can be found via the HOME box on the left.

ATTACHMENTS: We regret that the sending of attachment photos via email is banned. The ban is essential because while various virus scanning procedures are in operation, in isolated cases a virus infected attachment could escape the checking system. If this happened, it would leave the group open to virus' carried on attachments. These, in turn, could infect both the sender's PC or laptop and that of any member who opens an infected attachment. THE ONLY SAFE WAY TO SEND PHOTOS TO THE GROUP IS VIA THE WELL-TESTED USE OF THE PHOTO ALBUM SECTION.

PHOTOS DISCLAIMER: We do not own copyright of photos appearing in the PHOTOS albums. We do not wish to infringe any copyrights. If you are the copyright owner of any Photos appearing contact us for a photo credit line or, if you wish, we will remove the photo(s) immediately at your request upon proof of copyright.

THIS discussion group is not profit or reward based, no sales are made, nor is a fee made for membership.
