With two nine mile loops left out of an eight loop race Trehal went out with mecllanlca1 problems. Then Robins himself crashed hard and Buzz Busey took over the lead. Busey only led for about a half mile and the fire in his bike went out. In the meantime Robins had gathered himself and his mount back together again and snatched the lead and held it to thef1nlsh•. The Trailblazers set up the classes so that 200cc machines on down were lightweights. A total of 64 lightweight division riders started five minutes behind the big bikes. As if the dust wasn't bad enough, the leaders, instead of following the course markers, started following some trail riders that had gotten into the race course area. Consequently everyone but five riders missed the check on the back side of the course. OVerall lightweight winner, Bob Sorenson, didn't lead tbroughout the race but he was the first man to finish with all of the required helmet marks. Sorenson must have reallY been paying attention out there. The course consisted mostly of dust since the weatherman frowned and there wasn't even a hint of a breeze or rain and dust blanketed the whole area. At the starting area the riders faced 100 yards of brush and then turned onto a fast road. Leaving the road it was into some tough sagebrush and onto a foo S- turn road with a few deep ruts tbrown in. From then on it was another sandy road. a downhill with a 90 degree turn at the bottom and into the check. Leaving the check and a ste,ep downhill behind, the course turned onto a fire road that was definitely rough. On top of one of the rises some Wl1ucky riders fOood some cement pipes- just to the outside of the course and crashed. After going tbrough some trees and inore brush the riders turned Into a deep. narrow ravine, wide enough for just one bike and about two hundred yards long. If one rider fell everyone else used' him for traction to get up to the road into the finish check.
