dice for tile Iud spot.
Henry Sc1Iram of. Vancouver, Wash.
was out to top bis last years record.
With the track bard and fast with just
a llttIe dust, the top sportsman riders
_re out to try for top booors at the ftrst
Lucky Spokes race of this season.
They were all good fast races with no
ODe dominating the field.
Henry No. 59, Triumph, in the OPeD
class was the 1968 A.M.A. Western Reglooal Sportsman Cbampioo with 110
points.
Henry was track cbampion In the 0Pe0
class last year with Bob Burnstein No. 19,
also Triumph mounted close behind.
These hoo will be two of the open class
riders to _tcb this year. Both ot them
should be among the top sportsman riders
of. the year.

lIgIttwelgbts ftrst, then the big boys and
the ultra-lIgIttwelgbts last. Unless they
have a persooal Interest In a rider,
people who Jl8.Y to watch a scramble
come to _tcb the big bikes, not the
tiddler division and if you've been kee1>Ing your eye on the situatioo think back
a btt. When the btg bikes were In their
glory was when you saw spectators lining the fences. The big bikes dropped
off and so did those paying fans. If you're
an ultra-lIgIttweight, don't get mad, we're
one too, but the paying people woold
much rather see big booming Triumphs
and Beezers than a pack of lOO's bv!
So we have to get the btg classes built
uP again.
Another suggestion we're really all
for ts sure to cause some yelling and
screaming. That ts, all existing tracks
sbould be slowed down by adding turns
and obstacles and allowing the surface to
deteriorate somewbat. New tracks should
be laid out as scrambles tracks, NOT
TT trackS, and do a_y with TT events
altogether. Once again before getting too
uPtight on this, think back. Crater Bowl,
Rusty Nalls,
Pedro, Spencer Park,
they weren,'t TT scrambles tracks, they
were scrambles. And look at the CJIa1I.ty
of. rider they produced! Those guys
learned how to ride, not road race, and
U you don't remember those days, it
produced people like Bud Ekins, Jim
Goldsmith, Jim Hunter, Skip Van Leeuwen, Eddie Mulder, Nick Nicholson, Don
Surplice etc., etc., and even though some
of them consider themselves "Old Timers" bow they can still give anyone a
good go for their money. While those who
cut their racing teeth at ooly Prado Park,
well, you learned to go fast and we'll admit we're a "Prado Park Wonder" ourselves. Can go like beck when it's smootb
but face some ruts and the throttle gets
turned the wrong way. Off!
It ~ a dark night for regular scramblers at the monthly Ascot TT. Just about
everyone bad troubles. Terry Moriarty
got caugbt on the line with no fire and no
plug, (ftre your mechanic!). Fred Ed~ds blew, Ben Fakkeldy got a bad
start, Ted Longwith fell off maJ
