Northern California-Northern Nevada-Oregon-Washington-Idaho-Utah-Alaska-'
had a jet motor strapped to his back
side. Wargo was in no fl?Sition to lose
another overall title wIth mechanical
problems as Wargo blazed to two un'
contested fint place rides followed by
Rick Ryan and Jack Barton.
Rich Dezog rode his Maico to top
honon in the Open Pro class with
some very impressive moves to score a
big win. In the fint moto, all the bikes
crowded into the fint tum with Jerome
Heiberger taking the lead with Dezog
acting as Heiberger's shadow and John
Scruggs racing into the third spot. At
the finish, it was the same order with
Heiberger taking the checkered flag,
Dezog in second and Scruggs taking
third.
The second moto saw the word
consistent put to its meaning as Dezog
ran smooth as silk and passed fint
moto winner Heiberger who had
engine problems to take an easy
victory and enough points to take the
overall title followed by John Scruggs
and Doug Noell.

Day, Chandler
tame Experts at
BoladoST
By Merty Scott
HOLLISTER, CA, JULY 25
Keith Day, just off his thirdplace finish in the Novice road
race at Laguna Seca the weekend
before, continued his domination
of the 250cc Experta with a wire-to·
wire win, and Doug Chandler made it
a sweep for the Salinas Kawasaki-Suzuki
team by taking the 500cc Expen main
event on a Suzuki DR500 at the
Bolado Park cushion short track
tonight.
Despite the National Qualifier being
run the same night at Lodi, most of
the top District Experts were on hand
in the Mini cia•. With the Nationals
being run in Michigan, it just isn't
worth the trip. Everyone around District 56 knows there is no question who
would have taken the top honon at the
Nationals in the Mini classes as Winkie
Freitas continued to dominate, stnolr.·
ing the 85cc Experta on the Dave Birdtuned CRSO Honda and looking like
he was going to make it another one of
his famous double wins with a big hole·
shot in the lOOcc main. But the dis·
gusted Winkie pulled in with engine
troubles before he could finish the fint
lap in the 1005. Steve Mayfield took
second in the 85cc class and third went
to Danny Cahoon in his first Expert
ride, beating some good, established
Experts.
Craig Johnson took over the lead in
the 100s after Freitas pulled out, and it
was no contest as he took the win over
John Nunez who made a seventh lap
pass of Dean Vincelet who flOished
third.
Eric Green took a wire-to-wire win
in the 250cc Novice main event over
the hard charging Todd Beecher.

ORANGE COUNTY'S LARGEST
DIRT BIKE HEADQUARTERS
Once again, it was P.J. Sanchez
blowing away the 250cc Junior field,
winning by half a lap. The Experts
better be aware, and the Junion can
breath a sigh of relief because P.J.'s
now an Expert. Jim Wallace was
second with a fine ride.
After the 250cc Expert heats, everyone was looking forward to the big
match-up between Keith Day and
Billy Scott (both were big winners in
their beats). It never materialized; Dan·
ny Moore made sure of it by taking the
holeshot followed by Day and Scott.
Day made the pass for the lead going
into tum three and was home free.
The race for second was a battle
throughout with Moore holding off
Scott every lap. Scott really went for it
on the final lap, but it was to no avail;
Moore held him off at the checkered.
A fmt-lap crash brought out the red
in the 500cc Novice main. When they
got started, the win went to Kurt
Schiffner over Franlr. Randazzo, the
early leader who made one mistake
going wide in four which cost him the
lead. He recovered for a well ridden
second.
Mark LaCossa, following in cousin
Don Castro's footsteps. took the 500cc
Junior win on his 560 Bultaco over Lee
Yetter.
The 500cc Experta was a battle be·
tween Doug Chandler, Day and
Moore. Day was off on the green over
Chandler and Moore. Doug and Keith
were really going for it up front with
Danny right there waiting for a mistake.
Chanlder was able to work the Suzuki
DR500 past Day on lap seven. Day
went for it too much on the white flag
lap and went down. The win went to
Chandler and the Salinas KawasakiSuzuki DR500 over Moore's Honda.
A sad note was the loss of a good
friend earlier in the day as Geoff Lowe
of Salinas was killed at a Pro race in
Minnesota. Our deepest sympathies go
to Geoffs family. Anybody who knew
Geoff knows there was nobody with
more desire and heart to race. We all
will misa Geoff for he was a friend to
everyone, and the memories of the
good tiems we had will stick forever.
So, Godspeed Geoff. and we know
your spirit will be with us throughout.
