Millers master Salome 100 By Bred Butz SALOME, AZ, FEB. 22 Husqvama support riders Mark and Kent Miller blasted their way to fIrst Open and fIrst 250cc at the fifth annual Salome 100. Taking home another win for Southwest Motorcycle Sales, the top three riden smoked it to the fmish in record time. This year the ftnt lap looked lilte a remake of last year with Paul Bennett leading followed by Darryl Hutchins and Mark Miller. By the first pass through the pilS Mark Miller had moved to first with Bennett and Hutchins closely behind. Only five to' 10 seconds separated the top four. Scot Harden (Hus) was running second on time but not physically because of a poor start position. By the third checlt on the second lap Bennett had dropped to fourth with Hutchins leading and Mark Miller less than a second behind. By the time the Experts made it to the h.ome check on the second lap Mark Miller had the lead with Hutchins and Bennett close behind. On time Harden was second and John Imbriale (Yam) was fourth. With the Experts coming through for their last lap it was Mark Miller in the lead with Kent Miller right on his tail. Hutchins had run out of gas and Bennett had suffered a bad crash. Harde.n was still running strong although he was back in the pack. It looked like a remake of the 1980 Salome when Kent ovenook Mark on the last lap. But when it came time for Kent to pass Mark he got in traffic and feU, losing a shoclt and having to settle for second. At this point in the race Kent and Scot were running an even race. Scot picked up a flat tire shortly thereafter, making him drop a position to Imbriale. That was how the race ended up with Mark Miller fIrst, Kent second, Imbriale third and Harden fourth. Malting a fine showing after his Parker 400 Class 58 win was Dave Miller in fifth. Results OVEfIAU; 1. - . . MilIor 1430 Hull; 2. Kent _ I2!iO Huol; 3. John IrnbriIIe 1486 Yom); 4.

ORDER Factory Husky rider Scot Harden continued his domination of southern Nevada racing with an overaU victory in the Boulder City 7ud'1I7-..J 1537 E. Walnut. Pauclena. CA 91101 12131 795-2711 Dirt Riders·sponsored hare scrambles. Harden has won overall in three of thf four races held this year, and he didn't enter the other one. The day was definitely a case of man against the elemenlS, with a steady 'rain leaving only 54 fmishers of the 114 starters, and only half of the finishers riding all four loops in the 104 mile event. The cry of the morning by the sponsoring club was "when we want rain we get rain." The night before a light rain had indeed settled the dust, promising a rare good visibility ride, but by 10;50 a.m. race day the rain had returned with a vengeance, and some of the pit crews suggested that we stop wanting rain and start enjoying it. By noon, amid a steady downpour, nobody was enjoying iL As the Experts left the line at 10 a.m., it w.as "Holeshot" Anthony Pasqualotto leading ~he paclt. Anthony has led every race this year, but so far hasn't been able to take the checltered flag in the lead. Harden, who passed the smoke in about fifth place, quicltly moved up behind Pasqualotto. The charging Maico rider held off the factory Husky for about 10 miles when Harden rolled by in a high speed straight. Tony tucked in behind Scot and the two moved off to hide from the rest of the pack. By the end of three loops Harden had nearly a three minute lead over Pasqualotto, who pitted and discovered a crack in the swingann. He left for the final '26 miles with little hope of catching Harden, but with a comfortable 15 minute lead over third place, Doug Stadtlander. Finally, only a few miles from the fmish, a thrown chain gave Anthony his second mechanical in as many races. Harden took the checltered flag nearly 25 minutes ahead of Stadtlander. In the 250cc class Fred Hansen ap' pears to be approaching his old fonn after a severe injury in Baja had sidelined the Husky rider for most of 1980. Hansen took. the win ahead of Steve BecIt and Mike Welch brought his Can-Am into third. The 125cc class gave Husky/Sportsman Cycle-sponsored Daryl Fo\lts a come·fram-behind victory with Floyd Bradley and Randy Hunnycult rounding out the top three, aIao Huskymounted. The cold, wet weather left the course strewn with water-cooled biltes, who had filS keeping up to operating temperature. Ron Loomis took top Over 58 honors and eighth overall ahead of top Over 50 rider, Casey Fo\lts. The strange weather led to some strange resullS. A 125cc Novice, Ron Purvines, picked himself up from a start line crash and rode to a victory ahead of not only all the eighth-liter Novices, but also in front of top 125cc Amateur Art Deloml •
