The positions of the National
Points race were assured of rewrite
as such notables as Dick Mann,
Gene Romero, Jim Rice, Dave
Sehl, Jim Odom, Mark Brelsford
reached the Main Event. A lot of
surprises occurred including a near
upset win by a

After last week's stunning
perfonnance at Indian Dunes,
another strong effort· by the
Americans hosting the 250cc
European corps attending the
summer Inter-AMA motocross
series was half-way expected and
it occurred again as the Yanks
invaded the top five overall
finishers while many of the
Europeans had to settle for spots
far down on the finishing list. The
report appears on page 6; photo by
Annie Brokaw.
