You've all heard of Subbuteo the Flick Football game ? right ! Well subbuteo Speedway was cycle speedway with a difference you had to blow your two metal speedway riders round the track first one round the steel post and rang the bell was th winner .
The main reason is to rest their hands and/or adjust their clutch lever. Since the bikes have a single gear, releasing the clutch means the back wheel starts to turn and if the bike was not leant over on the footpeg (thus raising the back wheel off the floor) the bike would move forward. The clutch is easily adjustable to ensure that the level feels right to each individual rider and is adjusted each time a rider is making a start.
I think its Paul oakenfold :-D hope that helps

The last Speedway meeting held at Wembley Stadium was the FIM World Speedway final on 5 September 1981. It was won by the American Bruce Penhall.
The main FIM dirt bike race classes are the MX1 class, 450cc class where 450cc four strokes and 250cc two-strokes are eligible to race, the other main class is the MX2 250cc class where 250cc four strokes and 125cc(now up to 150cc) two strokes compete.
Less well known is the MX3 class where 650cc four strokes race with 500cc two strokes.
Most production dirtbikes fit into one of these classes, the exceptions being open class bikes like the BMW GS's and HP2's and KTM 990 Adventures and Super Enduros among other manufacturers big touring trailies, and various enduro, trail and fun bikes e.g. the KTM 300EXC, Honda CRF230F, etc.
Depends on where you ride and your definition of fast, 60 on asphalt is not that fast, however 60 on a jeep road in the woods is plenty fast.
In stock condition it will run about 40 miles per hour.
Different final drive gearing could be applied to raise this figure considerably.
A factory spec Kawasaki KFX 400 will run about 85-90 mph. This is without any modifications to the body or engine, which can alter the speed with for the faster or slower.
