Bettencourt scores at Tulare H-M By Bob Hill TULARE, CA , APR. 19 Chad Bettencourt had the horsepower and the speed to take the 250 and 500cc Expert wins at Tulare's first half-mile of the season. Paul and Doug Garrison had the track in super smooth shape for the first of six half-miles to be held a t Tulare this year. The 250cc Experts had plenty of talent, both loca l and from down south. After two heats and a semi, the stage was set for the main. Mike Garrison (Garris on Roofing-Yam) , Pete Hames (Bill 's Pipes -Yam), Mike Vital (Tulare Muffler-Yam), Rob Ely (Shafter Yam-Yam) and Steve Monger (Tulare Muller-Yam) all jammed in to the first comer with Bettencourt coming out of the second comer leading. Bettencourt got the drive down the back straight and into the third and fourth comers followed by Garrison, Hames and Vital. The positions stayed the same for all five laps with Bettencourt crossing the finish line about five bike lengths ahead. The 500cc Experts had all the people on their feet as there were some different breeds of bikes other than the singles. Rodney Sullivan (Kings Cyclery ) and Rob Selvy both had 350cc Yamaha twins. Also riding after a couple of years off was Scott Dink ins of Porterville. Sullivan got the holeshot followed b y Merle Barnett (Eddie' njoes-Yam). Bettencourt (Birkle-Yam) , Dinkins and SeIvy. Barnett fell in tum two with Sullivan taking the lead. After the first lap it was Su llivan in first with Bet tencou rt righ t behind. On the white flag lap, Bettencourt got under Sullivan in the fourth tum to squeak by for the win. The Open Money race looked like a good show until practice was over . J im Keener brought out his new XR·750 for the first time this year. A crash in the second comer ended his chances for the night. John Burnett's XR-750 dropped a transmission in the first practice so the Yamaha/Harley-Davidson battl e wasn't to be as Doug Ga rri son (Ga rris on Roofing-Yarn) led wire to wire over a field of Yamahas.
