1933's First Speedway Test (1933)

[@johngaller278]

Fantastic film ! How I wish all vintage racing was documented so well ! Amazing !

[@thebluesbrother]

The quality of the film is amazing...

[@tc19948]

Not a Douglas or Rudge in sight, what a difference 3 or4 years had made! Interesting mention of the changed start procedure, I am not sure if just the gate was new or the clutch (as opposed to rolling) start itself. Thank you very much for posting!

Brilliant history, thanks for sharing

[@anthonybagnall4885]

[@smoggysads]

Incredible footage

[@johnshrimpton135]

When speedway in GB was huge right up until the 80's , shame how its ended up ..

[@bebmeister656]

Agree 100%

[@DiegoRuiz1991]

How and why did it fall apart?

[@frenzalrhomb6919]

@@DiegoRuiz1991 Probably be the fact that nobody really has to turn up the events to see them, and just wait until it comes up on KZbin somewhere, and see it for free, even if it's 80 years later!! 🤣

[@smoggysads]

Cos mainstream broadcasters like BBC preferred poncy stuff like golf n tennis

[@williamnethercott4364]

Deep track and quite a lot of leg-trailing. Thanks for posting.

[@anthonycurr3161]

When did leg-trailing start dying out?

[@neil997]

Over 80yrs ago but the handlebars and style of riding surprisingly similar to 2015

[@DiegoRuiz1991]

Not that similar... The handlebars in old motorbikes (and old speedway too) were curved backwards like bicycles

[@geoffreypiltz271]

There's mixture of riding styles, both the old left leg trailing and modern left leg leading.

1933 rok a jakość transmisji i komentarza lepsza niż w TVP SPORT w 2014 roku :/

[@rusin_ale_polak]

Ja jestem zachwycony tym co zobaczyłem i zaraz bede szukal podobnych materiałów :)

[@vicsaul5459]

When chaps wore their hats at jaunty angles, outrageous

Great film...of course, the Aussies should have won, you Poms must have cheated!😋 Reminds me of that great English movie, Once a Jolly Swagman....about pre and post war London speedway. Dirk Bogarde and Sid James were in it.

Kiedyś nie przebierali w słowach jak dzisiejsi zawodnicy czy komisarze torów , że tor nie nadaje się do jazdy ,zle przygotowany itp: :) .

[@laskos8285]

Zacznijmy od tego że kiedyś to był żużel. Teraz to nie to samo.

[@EnglishVeteran]

English Team flying The Union Flag! Nothing changes!

[@dennisyoung4631]

J. A. Prestwich engines?

Much more exiting than modern speedway.
