Marty Miller 17531 and John Greenway dice through Corona's whoops. Classes: 125, 250,Open; Ages: 30·37, 38 and over third ahead of Dave Fernandez (Yam) and Don Griewe (Kaw). In round two Miller made a c;omeback, getting the holeshot and leading all the way to the checkered flag. Fernandez was putting in an excellent ride for only his third Pro race and held down second until lap five when Breker took over. Reisinger's pace was slightly off what it was in moto one and by the end of the race the best he could .manage was fourth behind Fernandez. That gave Miller the overall with Breker taking home second place money. The 125cc Pros were taken by Suzuki West's Craig Dale. Dale has been coming on stronger and stronger every week but Riverside Suzuki's Rick Stout has been hot too and between the two of them they put on a good show. Dale pulled the first holeshot while Stout was in fourth but it didn't take long for the two riders to find each other. Breker and his small bore Husky had their work cut out for them with a mid·pack start but he too managed to cut his way up quic)$h and by lap five he was sitting in fourth behind Dale, Stout and Todd Peterson (Suz). Breker followed Peterson for several more laps before moving into third where he finished. Moto two was Stout's turn to get the start. He went into the first turn with Peterson, Breker and Dale filing in behind him and the race became a four way contest. Dale moved up to second on lap three, but both Peterson and Breker remained right on his tail. Stout led the group almost all the way through the race, but on the lap bc=fore the white flag came out he got out of shape. The mistake cost him three places and he finished behind Breker who was in third behind Peterson. Results MINI BEG: 1. SIeve Morehouse (Kaw); 2. Roger Ebling IKaw}:'3. . .old Grigsby (Suzl.
