Steady Eddy scored an -J impressive win on his Triumpb In the U Expert Main, edging out Thad Lawrence for the vIctory. The Novice MaIn went about as expected with Gary Kapus taking the lead and bolding it througbout the race. Randy Scott was well in the pack at the start of the race but be moved out and took after Kapus and In the last two laps It was nIp and tuck for the two rIders. In the Amateur Main Darrel Cotton was In the lead most of the way, then he made a slip and went down. He got right UP again but was only able to pass two rIders out of the field that had gone around hIm. He finished 8th. The Expert Trophy Dash had three national numbers In It. Sonny Burres, CI) t; Mark W1ll1ams, and Eddie Mulder. Mulder could not get his machine rwming for the dash so it was run off between Burres and W1ll1ams. Wllllams won by a hair. Mulder was running again by the start of the main. Sonny Burres got off first and was In the lead most of the race with Mulder, Lawrence, Adams and W1ll1ams close behind. Near the end of the race Mulder flna1lY jumped out Into the lead as Burres went too wide on a corner. Thad Lawrence also passed at that time. That put Burres In third position. This was the way that the race finished. Mulder was hard pressed by Lawrence and we all thought he might make it passed him on the last lap but It was not to be. Mulder put on a good drive and Lawrence just couldn't get passed him. (Results on page 22) Action Hot At Ashland By Donna Tait Miss Washington Presents Brass By N.A.
