Moto Meister's Tom Mayfield
jetted do wn to Racing World set
on winning the Open Pro race and did . O pen Pro Ron Tebbs
had been getting up at 5:30 a.m . every
morning to jog before sch ool . hoping
to get ba ck into top conditio n before
meeting up with someo n e like
Mayfield. Tebbs' Dad used to be the
assistant track coach for USC and has
been helping Ron improve his sprints
and, more importantly, is m aking sure
he doesn't let up. Tebbs is truly in
training.
When the gate dropped in the first
moto of the O pe n Pros it was plain
th at the race was between Mayfield
and Tebbs. After Tebbs squeezed his
way through the hole he and Mayfield
let go with suc h m oto madness tha t by
the end of the fourth lap they were
dicing together with a 4Q·second lead
over the rest of the pack. Ma yfield
passed Teb bs and secu red the fro nt. so
Teb bs ba cked off knowi ng t he
upcom ing secon d moto was the hot
one.
That n umber two mo to saw
Mayfield grab the holeshot with Tebbs
truckin' his hot hustling Husky close
behind putting the press ure on hard.
It was anybody's race until Tebbs got
nailed with a fla t and that was that.
Tebbs. who had worked so hard to get
in shape . was defeated b y the
elements. Mayfield finished a cool
m inute in front of second place Jim
Ervin. Ervin still went home second
over all because Tebbs didn't finish .
Jim Tarantino got a last place start
in th e first 250cc Pro moto. He popped
a wheelie' off the line which cost him
valuable seconds as he cut his throttle
to set his Suzuki down . But with a
tuned-in attitude of " I'm going for it ."
he blasted through the traffic all the
way to the front. It wasn 't until he got
far enough ahead to begin passing
lapped traffic that he got into trou ble
and then on ly for a moment as his
front wheel washed out. causing him
to spill , but Tarantino was back on his
wheels before any competitive traffic
could get by.
Tarantino took t he second 250cc
Pro moto with a fla t ou t holeshot·to·
th e·checkers win to ta ke home the first
place mo ney for the d ay. Tara ntino is
presently looking for a , top notch ·
sponsor. Bre t Meyer was second
through the flags in both motosfor the
overall in that position and Mike Boyd
drove home third .
Bret Meyer also raced and won in
the 125cc Pro class . In the first m oto
