VALLEJO, CALIF., Sept. 18, 1970 - John Gennai from Los Gatos won again to make it two weeks in a row in the 250cc Expert class at the Vallejo Speedway sportsman TT races. John Green, pictured above leading Jim Foley, cooled it to take a second in the 250cc class and then garnished top points for the night by grabbing first in the 500 Expert class ahead of Foley. If Green had made any mistakes in the 500cc class, Foley was there to take the lead. Green made no mistakes. Usually a hard charger, he was out of character with a smooth, flawless ride to win. Entries in the big bike classes were higher than normal. A trio of Triumph riders, led by Mark Lane form Pittsburg, California, finished 1-2-3 in the 500cc Novice class with 25 entries. Likewise, Triumphs were 1-2-3 in the 650cc Expert class with Duane Spencer from Fremont winning. Friday night sportsman TT races are to continue through October 23rd at the Vallejo Speedway.

The see-saw battle between the duo began at the start when they had their bikes sliding in full lock turns, wide open in the corners and were passing I each other in the corners during each go.around. Riding side by side like twins, they were grinning with enjoyment as they experienced the art of true full-out racing. In a fitting finish, Turner squirted ahead in the last corner of the final lap and beld for the win. If this were not enough for the viewing audience, the 250cc Handicap fmal was a perfect dessert. Lowell Moural took the early advantage followed tightly by Joe Allen.

On the fourth lap, Allen began challenging Moural while Turner's Triumph had finally caught fire and was blistering through the pack to take over third. With an ever-opened throttle, Turner continued to gain ground on the front runners and finally subdued them on the last .lap of the last oval. Into the stretch, it was Allen on the outside, Turner inside and Moural sandwiched between driving for the checkered.
