CA !10731 One of the most impressive night- . time motocross series ever held came to a close this Friday evening at Indian Dunes. Tne American Motocross Enterprises Bosch Summer Series had its final bout and after six straight successful races., promoter Jerry Shore would like to thank the more than generous sponsors of the series including the Robert Bosch Co. . Electro Helmets. Spectro Oil andJD Engineering. A consistent 300 riders a night showing took place during this spectacle and the final event had a fantastic full-house turnout with 25 different classes. The Pro showing was superb and the 500cc Pro thriller was certainly something to watch . The most advertised racer around this track is probably Greg Robertson and his win this time in this class showed just why he gets a write up from th e press . Kolbe Cycles has taken a keen interest in Robertson and their total support is paying off . Greg ate up the 11 other competitors in both motos, taking first overall a decent cash prize to boot. Jim Tassano listed his bike as being a MAC but whatever he rides he does well. Jim scored a 4-2. which gave him the second place green over third place Andy Janning of Sepulveda. Steve Rawson headed off the rest of the angry pack, which included Mark White (Hus). Bill Hagen (Yam). Greg Torgerson (Yam), Rusty Hunt (Yam).
