OUTDOOR LIGHTING FOR TOP-LEAGUE SPEEDWAY TRACK GRINDSTED SPEEDWAY KLUB, GSK LIGA, DENMARK

Project benefits:

  • Extreme brightness with wide and asymmetric light distribution:
    This luminaire type ensures outstanding, uniform and reliable lighting with high lumen output across the entire speedway track. The individual adjustability of each floodlight’s beam angle on every mast optimises rider safety and visibility, enhances the audience experience, and supports high-quality video recording at any time of day.
  • Dimmable floodlights:
    For standard training sessions or track maintenance, the lighting can be dimmed and adjusted as needed – helping to avoid unnecessary power consumption.  
  • A Worthwhile Investment:
    The highly efficient LED floodlight luminaires reduce power consumption and enable a rapid ROI with low energy costs.
  • Durable, weather-resistant and cost-effective solution:
    With an IP66 rating, the luminaire is perfectly suited for Danish weather conditions. A robust and long-lasting solution at an attractive price point – offering long service life, low energy use and minimal maintenance.

In 2024, Grindsted Speedway Klub installed 32 high-performance LEDVANCE luminaires on their speedway track, ensuring optimal lighting, top-level safety, broadcasting quality and a strong experience for spectators. The solution is robust, energy-efficient, and built for the Danish climate – earning high praise from both riders and club management. 

THE CHALLENGE

Until now, Grindsted Speedway Klub had no permanent lighting system – only renting floodlights for special occasions. Competing in Denmark’s top league, the club had ambitious goals and required evening racing capabilities. The aim was to acquire a reliable, high-quality lighting system at a cost-effective price. Rider safety, spectator experience and video recording quality were all top priorities.

THE SOLUTION

Grindsted Speedway Klub installed 32 adjustable LED luminaires of type FL MAX LUM P 1200W 757ASYM50x110WAL, featuring a modular design with separate power supply and high-efficiency floodlights delivering up to 135 lm/W. Investor and sponsor Gorm Pedersen, who is also project developer and current director of GSK Liga, learned through his professional network about LEDVANCE’s offerings. In close cooperation and with guidance from LEDVANCE, the club selected the ideal solution. Installation was handled by a local electrical contractor to support the regional economy. Final beam alignment was carried out by LEDVANCE.

BENEFITS

The technical advantages of the selected luminaire include especially powerful brightness and asymmetric light distribution, which covers large areas without causing glare, light pollution, unwanted shadows or dark spots. This significantly enhances rider safety and supports excellent video recording quality. Long service life, energy efficiency and the durable, flexible, modular design with minimal maintenance were also key factors in the decision. An added benefit is that the lighting has zero upward light output (ULOR = 0%), avoiding unnecessary light pollution in the surrounding area.

SUMMARY

The LEDVANCE FL MAX LUM P 1200W 757ASYM50x110WAL was the ideal choice due to its strong light output and wide beam spread – perfect for speedway and other high-speed sports where visibility and sightlines are crucial for both safety and performance. Its asymmetric and flexible light distribution ensures even illumination without flicker, dark spots or misleading shadows. The lighting quality enhances both spectator experience and video recording.This is a first-rate solution for the price. The luminaire’s durable design and long lifespan minimise maintenance costs and ensure reliable operation in Danish weather conditions. Riders at Grindsted Speedway Klub have expressed great satisfaction with the result – and the solution has already been recommended to another Danish speedway track, which LEDVANCE is now considering for a similar project.

At Grindsted Speedway Klub, GSK Liga – competing in Denmark’s top league – we partnered with LEDVANCE to deliver maximum safety and comfort for our riders while also meeting the expectations of spectators and media in today’s competitive entertainment landscape. We chose this particular lighting solution because we knew from our network that LEDVANCE has a strong reputation for quality products with high functionality and durability. Throughout the planning and communication process, we enjoyed excellent cooperation and a productive exchange of ideas and solutions that fit our budget. Both investors, riders and the installation company were involved throughout, aiming for a long-term solution – and we’re all very satisfied with the result.
