Garrett wins six in a
row at Dunlap
DUNLAP CYCLE PARK, CAL.. FEB . 9
Pro rider Milan Garrett (1\lon) won
his sixth straight 250 Expert race
Sunday at the Dunlap Motocross.
In the first moto, Milan went
Arnold Pennt fighting his way for first
against John Dongberry in the 125
Amateur class.
The race for first in the 250 Expert
class was between J im Turner (Bul) and
Kevin Henry (Bul). Each shared the
spotlight at one time or other, but with
ea ch of them having bike trouble and
mud baths, Turner proved to be the
better mudder,
Mark Nessler (Mai) was the only
Open Novice to finish, while Joe Elkins
(Bul ) took two firsts and the Amateur
honors. Open Expert was won by Brian
Jodry (CZ) but not without pressure
from Kevin Henry and Richard Smart,
both on BuIs. Again mud and bike
troubles proved the deciding factors,
giving second to Smart and third to
Henry.
