Team Green's Tim Michlitsch
(Eastside Kawasaki/Chuck Sun Apparel/ATK/LRD) found himself up
frontas the first stanza of 125cc class
rounded tum one. Behind him WP
Racing's Eric Hall, Yamaha's Jim Anderson and Kawasaki-mounted Steve
Oster were in the next three spots, dicing for position. Anderson's bike
started sounding funny during lap
two. putting an end 1O his chances.
Hall succumbed to hard-charging
Ted Holt, giving Holt the second
spot and on lap three. Oster was left
with a broken collarbone after fighting a losing battle with the whoops,
moving Marvin Waldo and Jim Wiant
in the founh and fifth spots.
Michlitsch. Holt and Hall separated
themselves from the rest of the field
with that order holding to the finish.
The second moto was a MichlitschAnderson duel for nearly the entire
race. After Anderson got by Holt and
Hall during the second and third
laps, he zoomed in on Michlitsch's
rear fender to begin a come-frombehind effon that wound up just
shon. Michlitseh took his second win
and the overall while Anderson, Holt.
Hall and Waldo rounded out the top
five..
The Larson brothers, Phil and
Mike, made their first-ever appearance at PIR, and what an appearance
it was. After dueling with Michlitseh
for a couple of laps in the first 250
race, Phil blew by and walked away
to take the win. Michlitsch kept up
the pace for second. Mike Larson was
third. with Maico's Scott Tyler, Honda Suppon's Dave Hettinga and KTM
rider Rod Keller third, through sixth.
:rhe second molO left long-time
PIR racers and workers in awe as
Michlitsch. Mike and Phil Larson
and Anderson put on one of the most
exciting races anybody has seen
around here for a long time. Michlitsch left the fray with problems on
lap two, leaving Mike, Phil and Anderson to put on a great show. On lap
six Anderson sped past Phil with a
nice pass and moved up to challenge
Mike. Phil had lost no ground and
was right behind the Yamaha-supponed Anderson. Anderson got past
Mike on lap eight and was able 1O
stay ahead of Phil. who also passed
his brother on lap eight, ror the
remainder or the race.
