A fall in the second moto foiled Aircone rider R oger Bartling's (Suz) chances for a big win in the 250 Intermediates which went to John Criswell (Su z} of Tea m Junk; while the brothers Whiting - A .j. and Matt - d iced it out betwee n t hemselves to d ivvy up the top two spots in the Mini Experts.

He got off the line in about second place, and when he was ready to make his move into the first tum, Co rey ran ou t of room a nd into the weeds which put him dead last.
