SACRA MENTO , CAL., Aug. 27, 1972
- It was all the way for two brother s,
Bob and Billy Grossi, this Sunday at the
Cal Expo Fairgro unds Motocro ss put on
by Dirt Diggers North MC. In the Open
Expert motos, Bob Grossi (Hus) jumped
out in front on the starts and just flat
out pulled away for 20 minutes ,
winning both motos. The second place
fmisber , Dave Langho m, pursued the
leader for a while, but was maintai ning
for the most part to guarant ee a "for
sure" second.
The course was amazing ly fast with
the dust kept to a minimu m. As a
matter of fact, the course was so fast for
one fellow (Grossi) that he was able to
lap all but.two riders in the last moto.
For Billy, it was a Ii ttIe tougher . In
the 125 Expert class, Billy was beat in
the first moto with Pete Scarlett on a

Penton leading Grossi through half the
race. Grossi manage d to get by the
Amateu r but couldn 't catch Mike
Jenning s, the leader. Howeve r, on the
second round, Bill tried some of his
brother 's tactics, grabbin g the lead at
the very start and staying there for the
remaind er of the moto. Mike Jenning s
took a second, giving Bill the win for
the day, with the fastest times.
In the 250 Expert event, Bill Grossi
took a first place leading the field from
the start as Jim Turner (CZ) kept the
thase going at a quick pace. Jim Turner
was able to take away the chance of a
sweep by the Grossis when Billy's bike
started soundin g strange in to the frrst
lap, leaving Bill almost a lap down for
the remaind er of the race, thus giving
Turner the final flag for the win.
