Passing room in th e woods was minimal a nd Adams was lucky enough to draw th e riding number beh ind Bob Steffan and his fellow Shamrocks . wh ose trai l etiq ue tte is am on g th e best in the District. Adams' Honda teammate Jay Tullis won th e 175cc " A" clas s with 12 points lost and saved th e day for'Adams when Mike's speedometer broke at the 90 mile point. T he Open "A" class was won by J im Wil son . Jim en tered as a n "A" rid er but sin ce he didn't have a D·37 Enduro ca rd. steward Larry La ngley made him ' rid e as a "B ." After the sco res were in . it was obvious that Wilson was " A" caliber , so refe ree Counts reclassified him and riding partners Bob Br ooks and John Barnes back to "A" and they won the "A" team trophy.

The most -often hea rd rider co m ment was , " I I~~ t lots of points , but I sure had fu n. Following th e .trophy presentation Su nd ay eveni ng , several UEA mem bers ca rried Jerry Coun ts to the creek a nd threw him in . Ironica lly, that will probably be his only reward for one hell of a lot of hard work. • Nat iona l Model (347) Grand Prix Mode l (3 18 ) "I TS TR ICK !" Jim Pomeroy " #1 IN PROTECTION !"
