HUNTINGTON BEACH, CAL, Nov. 2With well over 100 riders in attendance,
the H,B. park estabUshed ~elf Sunday
as one of the better motocross courses
in southern Callfornia. The reception
from both riders and SPectators was so
enthusiastic that track owner Don England has decided to put on another one
in two weeks on November 16. Racingon
a track that provided a little bit of all
types of terrain except heavY dust and
rocks, the riders proved their ability to
adaPt to different tracks. The mudhole
was a challenge of a different sort and
instead of being deep and impassable, it
was long and slick. It seems that the
ground is hard and clay-like and the water
dumped on it only sinks down so far and
this leaves a slick layer on top that gave
the riders no end of adhesion problems
as it took a lot of riding ability to get
through it with any speed.
