Speedway career

edit

Kubíček reached the final of the Speedway World Team Cup in the 1963 Speedway World Team Cup.[2][3] He has also reached the final of the Individual Speedway Long Track World Championship on two occasions in 1974[4] and 1976.[1]

Like many Czech riders of the time, the Czechsolovak authorities rarely allowed riders to compete for British league teams but they did allow club sides such as Prague to tour the United Kingdom, which allowed Kubíček to race in Britain in 1967.[5]
