BAKER SFI ELD, CA, DEC. 19 •• Total Enclosed $ for events With a lighter th an normal turnout due to th e hol idays, 'i n ten se as ra ci rig ' Am erican Motocross Enter- I • Name prises held the second MX rac e of the Grapevine Challen ge Ser ies. The 125cc Pro class saw a ction between Montana McCoy and An dy Ellis in the seco nd moto . Ellis, a new member to th e Pro ra n ks, stayed righ t on McCoy's rear fend er. Andy and Montana go t " big sky" as the two cri sscrossed their lines around the track. As the two headed down th e back stra igh t, Ellis tried a hot inside lin e through a left hander. It worked and Ellis held the lead a ll the wa y for the win. But with a first moto third, Ellis' win was on ly good for second overall. McCoy scored the overall with a 1-2 tally. Th ird overall went to Curtis Page (2·3). The 125cc Junior racers blasted down th e front stra igh t in their firs t moto with Mike Hukill in front and Tom Holt in second. Holt chased Hukill fo r half the moto. With three laps left , Holt made h is move, sett ing Hukill up with an inside pas s. Hol t ope ned it up and took hi s Butch Cambell tuned Suzuki to a first moto win. Hukill brought his ma chine in for second. Mik e Hawks and Lance Kirk had a tug of war over third with Hawks having more pull. Johnny Ginn (Yam ) rounded out the top five. Moto two was a repeat start. Hukill has the quickness and co ncentration on the start and it shows. This time, when th e halfway point ca me , Holt was nowhere near the leader. Seems a malfunction ing fuel val ve sent h im on a second moto vaca tion . Th is left Hukill all alone for the win. Johnny Ginn took over second fro m Mike Hawks, but his 5-2 score was only good enough for third overall. Second overall went to Hawks (3-3). I AMA Number· Exp.
