HOUSTON , TX , OCT. 8
.Over 225 riders revved their
engines off the line at Houston's
finest motocross course Sunday,
end ing another Rio Bravo two day racing program for the week .
"Shaggin' Shau n" Kelly and Jerry
Surber wrung t hei r we ll -tuned
m achines ou t to top the 250cc and
125cc Expert competition. Kelly had
his toughest battle with old foe Glen
Johnson .
.
Promoter Red Walling was
everywhere at once as usu al, starting
the events , announcing them, holding
'court at riders' meetings, grading th e
. track, and ' handing out the cash and
trophies too! Although the entries were
below normal for the event, the ra cing
a ction was lo p p ed only b y the
beautiful crisp fa ll weather.
Changes made to the track du ring
the week included some nifty downhill
off-camber drops that kept the rid ers
on their toes. The well-rnaintained
track is in a park- like setting of natural
terrain with such added attractions as
an Olympic-sized swimming pool,
huge game room , showers , permanent
restrooms and a large conession
building with lots of good seats for the
convenience of riders and spectators.
The best lit night motocross track in
the country is on the same property
with full track visibility and
comfortable bleachers open for racing
on every Friday night.
