but Gene had always taken the point
position back before· the start finish
line. Roberts took the lead on the II th
lap, lost it momentarily on the
following circuit, and then took it for
good. Once out in front he managed
to open up some breathing room and
romped past the checkered flag on the
20th lap with about a 15-second lead.
Aksland, who'd been omnipresent
ill third through the race, also found a
way by Romero -doing it on the 13th
lap - and pulled a small gap in the
seven remaining laps. The first three
were nearly lightyears in front of the
rest of the pack.
Schlachter had finally gotten away
from Martin and he finished fourth
(Rich would later duplicate the feat in
the Superbike Production race).
Maron was fifth over Cooley, Emde,
nonhern Californian Dave Garoutte,
John Bettencourt and Miles Baldwin.
Robens' win gave him his first
Wrnston Pro Series points of tJ.1e year,
while Aksland's second place finish
moved him into a tie for seventh place
in the standings. "On the din tracks
we've been having some problems,"
SB!d Skip, "but we're coming back in
the second half to show 'em how it's
done."
