AMEMiniMX: Johnson, Lozano take wins By Judy Gree nberg VALENCIA , CA , APR. 20 Riders were out in force for the ' AME Minicycle Association's Friday night races on the mini track at Indian Dunes, The Suzukis of Lance Johnson and Ron Caldwell geared the sscc g-II Stock Juniors into act ion as th ey diced for control of th e pack . Caldwell com manded the first moto , while Johnson fought h is way forward . An early try to ta ke second from Ca rl Tignino was halted wh en Tignin o broke away , leaving Johnson to fend off Buddy Dumo. A few laps later came another cha nce for J ohnson to tak e a stab at T ignin o. He moved to -his sid e at the tower tum , a nd into second over the ju m p . T ign ino went down as he tried an insid e pass . ope ning th e way for Dumo to finish th ird. T he second tim e the ga te belonged to J ohnson. Ca ldw ell kept constant p ressure d own the stra ig h ts , and mov ed to Johnson 's sid e in th e turns , bu t he hel d his g ro u n d . Dumo con trolled t hird , while Len Robertson and Marty Ricka rd repea ted th eir first moto fou rt h pla ce ba ttle . W ith the checkered in sight, Caldwell made a last effo rt , bu t J ohnson's wheel remained in front for th e overall . What was the m ain a ttraction in th e l l th e ve n t t h a t made the guys abandon their bikes and head trackside? It was th e new S3cc Powder Puff class. Deana Lynch holeshot the first moto with Terry Lozano and Dena Paugh close behind . When Lozano mi s-shifted, Paugh got the break she needed to take second. At the sight of th e white flag, Paugh pressured Lynch a nd moved in front. Lynch went down when she tried to take it ba ck in the final ess, and Lozano fin ished second. Lynch aga in took th e early lead out of the second gate, with Lozano right on her tail. Paugh snapped her clutch and rode the course, stuck in low gear, as she watched the battling duo of Lynch and Lozano fly by. Lozano shot th e inside of the m in i sweep to take the lead . As she sta rted to put some ground between herself and Lynch , she spu n ou t of control. long enough to find Lynch breathing down her neck. It _was tight, d own to the wire. but Lozano held it and captured the night's overall win . • Resu lts PEE WEE EX: 1. Kevin Sam ford (Suzl : 2. Matt Blackl ock ISuzJ 3.
