laps later, Thornton yielded to Hall
and finally Tyler. Round two started off Anderson,
Cropper and Thornton. On lap two,
Cropper laid it down and was last
going. Jeff stated that he has fallen
more in his few appearances at
Woodland than he has all summer.
He'll figure it out in self defense
because he has found out that clawing
his way through the pack isn't ;all that
easy.
Up front, Anderson was alone again,
but Thornton and Tyler had a tight
battle going for second. Tyler had
taken over, but Thornton was right on
him when they came over the jump
coming out of the woods, and
Thornton pulled a horrible high side.
His first comment was, "I bit my
tongue." (We all know it would be a
disaster if Stacy couldn't talk.) Tyler
held second, and Hall was third at the
flag.
'
Anderson's performance in the
250cc class was almost a repeat. He
was led briefly in both motos by Rob
Watilo (Yam).
Watilo got the scratch in the first
moto. Anderson took an inside line to
move by in one of the tight sections,
but the line ran out, and Rob was by
again. Before the lap was out
Anderson found a workable pass and
was gone. Eric Eaton (Mai) held third
off the line but went down and had to
really work to earn an eventual
second. Watilo held thir4 at the flag.
Anderson led the second moto for a
lap, but Watilo was in front on the
second loop after Anderson took a side
trip off the course. By the next lap,
Anderson led again and was off. Eaton
scratched at the back of the lack but
made it to third in one lap an went by
-Watilo two laps later.
Eaton came back to dominate the
Open class.
