Silva scoots to CMC Tumbleweed • win By Jerry Parsons LEMOORE, CA , APR. 20 Randy Johnston, Doug Silva and Ron Hutcherson all came away winners from Tumbleweed Park's CMC motocross at the Lemoore N.A.S. track. Due to a shortage of Pro riders, Randy Johnston (125cc Pro) was forced to ride with the Open Intermediate class and take the overall win . This seemed of little concern to Johnston as he rocketed off the line in third position. Doug Silva (C-A) and Jim Holmes (Yam) used thier Open class machinery to pull an early lead. By lap two, Johnston had jammed by Holmes and set his sights on Silva. Johnston worked hard fighting to find a way past Silva. Lap three found Johnston cutting past Silva and starting on his way to an easy win. Holmes was passed about the halfway point and Gary Wilson (Suz) took over his spot . These positions remained th e sam e to the checkered flag with Johnston taking the Pro win. Silva and Wilson took first and second respective- ' Iy in the Open class. The second moto started with Silva pulling the holeshot again and Johnston running third . Johnston soon moved into second and Silva was now johnston's target , but this time not an easy one. Johnston tried to overtake Silva every lap , but could find no openings. By the halfway point, Johnston found a way. Silva was not going to give up this race as easy before and started to press Johnston. Silva started to fade a bit towards die end but still gave Johnston a race. Johnston and Silva finished first with Wi lSon and Holmes following them in . The 250cc Junior class blasted off the line with Mark Cross (Hon) pulling the holeshot. Eulis Haselden (Kaw) and James Cochran (Suz) followed hot on Cross' ta il. Ron Hutcherson (Yam) soon overtook Cochran and moved into third spot while Haselden overtook Cross for first . Soon Hutcherson also overtook Cross and now held second. John Williams from K & A Cycle Center was moving up and had taken over third spo t. Haselden finished first with Hutcherson and Will iams second and third. The second moto started with Robert Drewy taking an early lead followed by Hutcherson and Rodney Church (Suz). Cross and Williams had both fallen in the first turn, leaving Cross out of the race and Williams in eighth position. Hutcherson soon passed Drewry and began to stretch his lead . Haselden had moved into th ird position about the halfway point and by the end had moved into second. Hucherson finished first, Haselden second and Drewry third. Results 5Occ: 1.
