"I must admit 1 did feel kinda bad each moto
when 1 got the holeshot," grimaced Chuck Sun.
"The bikes are now putting out eight more
horsepower than when we first raced them at
Anaheim last November. Then,
once I got out front, it was hard·
Iy a contest. It's a lot easier throw·
ing a 200 pound works bike
12
through a corner than the 230 pound
production bikes I used to race."
At the Prairie City round of the CanAm sponsored CMC Golden State
Series. Team Honda's newest star
pulled out runaway back-to-back mom
wins for the overall victory in the 250cc
Pro class. In what was just his second
race for Honda. Chuck Sun scort"d his
win riding a non·watercooled vl'rsion
of the RC250·80 Pro-Link works monoshocker during a shakedown cruise for
the upcomin/t Sup('rcross St"ries. "Rising'Sun" Chuck had arrived and was
ready to pass his nicknamt" on down to
ynun/ter brotht"r Ron.
