PA 17751 717f726.4921 The 125cc Pro class at DeAnza Cycle Park saw Craig Gonnley pull off an impressive two moto win in spite of some slightly unusual conditions. Gormley scored th~ moto on~ bol~· sbot ov~r th~ Honda trio of Scott Manning, his brother Troy Manning and Don Gri~we. It wasn't long before Gormley was way out in front while the three Hondas were glued to each other. Scott, who rides for Super Seer goggles, always h~ld a slight lead while Troy and Griewe traded back and forth almost every lap. It was near the end of the rac~ when Scott unexpectedly had the lead dropped into his lap when Gormley pulled off the track. It seems Gormley, who was far out in front. thought he was even farther out in front and stopped to correct a problem with his leathen (his zipper was down). The horde of Hondas got by, but Gormley simply took care of his businesa and remounted to pass them all and take the win. Scott was second over Griewe and Troy. The next moto was a rerun of tbe first, except for the leader's ~mergency stop. Gormley led every lap while th Hondas battled for second. Once again the results read Gormley, Scott Manning, Don Griewe, Troy Manning, and Rick Rodgen (Kaw). In the first 250cc Pro moto it was Todd Baldwin (Yam) and Griewe (Mai) out in front of tbe fint two laps while Matt Tedder (Suz) held third. On the third lap Tedd~r fell and gave the position to Danny Burtt (Yam) who held it to the end. Baldwin was having a hard time staying in from of Griewe until the final few Laps wben the Maico dev~loped some dectrical troubles. Tbe order as they crossed the line was Baldwin, Griewe. Burtt, Paul Thede (Suz) and Tedder. It was in tbe next moto that things got a little strange. Tedder was riding two classes and he was preny tired when b~ got off the track after winning tbe Open Pros. So tired in fact, that be didn't notice tbat he had the wrong bike on the line at th~ start of the 250cc race. The 400 made mincemeat of tbe rest of th~ pack as it shot up the start hill and soon he was fmnly in tbe lead. But Greg Zitterkopf (Mai), who had crashed in moto one, was in second (fint 250?) and pushing bard. A couple oflapslater Tedd~r, who still hadn't realiz~d he was on the wrong bik~ and would certainly be dis
