O'Connor did in Snyder 8.69-159.85 to 9.10-159.29. The final was somewhat anticlimactic when Holden came up with a broken magneto and O'Connor soled for the win. The last race of the weekend was a real ground-thumper. Davis was to face off with Gleason. Davis fired the fue!er and it sounded as fierce as a funny car. Gleason lit the whisperquiet Turbo and burned out halfway down the strip. Both riden sta~ ever so carefully and then came the green. Two di~ shot out of the bole as one blurred machine. One hundred yards out and they were spoke to spoke. Then, littk by little, Davis' monster started to edge over to the center line dividing the two lanes. Davis had to cut the power enough to straighten it up and Gleason was by for the win, 8.49-165.44 to 9.04-158.00. Spectator attendance was good and the number of Pro entries was double that of last year's race. Dragbilce has guaranteed a third race for Fremont next year. Results 34 VOUTH elIMINATOR: 1.
