SOOSUPPORT Jim Pomeroy flashed in there with Heiki and Pie..e until he dropped it. -- The 500 Support guys split up all three motos, but Ron Pomeroy's'(Bul) two seconds and a first far out distanced everyone for the overall. Mike Hartwig (Hus) took an uncontested first'moto, with Pomoery second and Rex Staten (Mai) an ascending third. Pomeroy took the start to finish win in the second moto, while Staten lost his pipe while looking for second place. Since Hartwig failed to fmish moto two, Pomeroy looked strong for the overall. Between the second and third motos Rex Staten had this to say, "I'm either going to stuff them or myselL" Well, he managed the former. He streaked away from everyone and wen t on to win by nearly a half a lap over securely second· place Ron Pomeroy. This was the first .of the Inter-AMA series and didn't - exactly start off spectacularly. A series of crossed wires and misunderstandings turned up a satisfactory, at best, event. The upcoming events might do weU to shine a bit more. RESULTS, 250: 1. Pierre Karsmakers (Yam) )-1. 2. Brael Lackey (Kawl 4-2. 3. Jim Pomeroy (Bul) 3-3. 4. Heiki Mikkola tHus) 2-5. 5.
