Ledbetter leads thewayat Lightweights' 0.37 scrambles _ season opener the 11th Annual Motorcycle & Accessory Trade I;xpo By Maureen Lee Feb.....ry8.10 ELSINORE, CA,JAN. 20 In the Astrohall - adjacent to the Astrodome. Hundreds of Exhibitors & thousands of new products. Motorcycles? Come and see the 1980 models from BMW, Harley-Davidson, Suzuki, Honda, Kawasaki, Yamaha, Italjet, Moto-Guzzi,. Ducati, KTM, Can Am, Garelli, . Sachs and Vespa. Also, an incredible accessory line-up. The lure of the Super Bowl didn't keep everyone home Sunday; many of the scrambles faithful were all in their places and hot to go for th~ first run of th~ ~ason. What our futur~ flaurack and TT rid~n would do in District 37 without th~ hard ,working Lightw~ights w~ don't know ... just about nothin', that's what. Curtis Cannon stan~d off th~ N~w Y~ar right by taking th~ Mini class thr~ straight, follow~ by Br~nt Bow~rs (2-2-2) whil~ Jason Bell and Don Ambr~ swap~ third around with Bryan Barrick, B~II coming up with it. Again, it looks lik~ th~ 125cc class is going to be popular and although th~ Amat=n and Ex~ns ran tog~th~r, th~ w~r~ mixing it up. Mark ~ bett~r (2-3-1) won it, th~n cam~ Da~n Hulb~rt with a third and two ~onds_ Jimmy Snow won th~ ~ond moto but also had two fourths which lost him third ov~rall to Cunis Cannon's 1-5-3 . Du~ to all th~ h~avy rains th~r~ w~r~ som~ rough spots which ca~d a f~ rid~rs som~ probl~s, and K~ith Guth~ry suff~r~ a possibl~ brok~n wrist in practic~. Th~ 250cc class is going to b~ a scorch~r again this ~ason. Tommy Walton won th~ first moto, with Pete Ham~ breathing in his ear all th~ time, then Joe Steff~n who was also defending against Bud Carroll: For th~ next two rounds Steffen worked his tail off to get two firsts and therefore the overall win, while Walton and Hames swapped the oth~r spots around witlJ Carroll and Randy Bird. The battle is Oft for that numbn one DiStrict platel And since it's that time of the year, w~'d lik~ the Scr~n Actors Guild to consid~r Tommy Walton's performanu after his get-off.
