Clue, Some great speedway riders came from a place with a very similar name.

That's because it isn't Limehouse.

It's none of those. Wimbledon is probably the closest, geographically speaking

The closest so far by a signifiant margin, but not spot on.

Peckham Rye, stairwell to Inner South London Line Queens Road-bound platform.

Not Peckham Rye.

Based purely on the answers and clues so far, Denmark Hill?

hmmm!
Afraid my speedway knowledge proved to be a bit too historical!
Bring back Ove Fundin, I say!

I can't remember when I was last at the Speedway, but it was some time ago. The popular song playing was 'Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft'.

I've been to Speedway once, it was at Odsal Top stadium and I couldn't understand why the middle of the track was grass. It was good fun, though the smell of petrol engines still doesn't compete with warm cylinder oil and burnt coal.

I can't remember it, just the smell of Redex and two-stroke oil. I'd still rather hot cylinder oil and burnt coal, especially with a hint of bacon.
