Speedway – Bomberka

Speedway Bomberka: Fun on Reverchon-Cobra cars

At the heart of it is the familiar bumper cars routine: you get into a car, take the wheel and choose your direction. Other visitors drive across the same area at the same time. This constantly creates new routes and encounters. On a clear track, you can take a wider turn; when traffic is heavier, you react to the cars near you.

One special feature of this installation is its Reverchon Cobra cars. The specialist Ride-Index database specifically lists this type of vehicle for Bomberka's Speedway. This vehicle design is therefore one of the features that can be used to identify this particular bumper car hall. However, the car type should not be confused with the manufacturer of the entire hall structure.

The different bumper cars belonging to the Bomberka family

The Bomberka family name is associated with several bumper cars in the showman's world. In addition to Speedway, Ride-Index lists Rallye Star and Insider as separate entries. Rallye Star is a different hall structure with its own history. Insider is also listed as a standalone two-pillar bumper car. So sharing a family name alone does not mean that historical photos or technical details can be freely transferred between these rides.

The Speedway No. 1 operated by Thomas Roßkopf from Bad Kreuznach is also a different ride. The two attractions share only a similar name. The links with Tacke and the Reverchon Cobra cars are the defining features of Bomberka's Speedway.

History: Previously operated by showman Tacke

The documented history leads to Minden. Ride-Index names Tacke as the former operator of the Speedway until 2012. The ride was then attributed to the Bomberka showman's business. This means the same bumper car can be traced through at least two periods under different operators. So if you are looking for historical pictures, don't just look for its current name; also search for its earlier period with Tacke.

A change of showman does not automatically mean that a ride has been rebuilt. The sequence of operators described in the specialist register is part of the history of a particular two-pillar ride. This distinction is important for bumper cars, as similar names, cars and façade designs can be found at different fairgrounds.

Who is Speedway Bomberka for?

If you want to steer for yourself when you visit the funfair, this Speedway offers the classic bumper car experience. Riding together with friends is especially fun, as the other cars keep things unpredictable. Any age restrictions for children and the option of riding with an accompanying adult are displayed at the ride itself. In our attraction overview, you can compare other standalone bumper car rides.
