North's Burns fast at Corona High School MX By Nate Rauba CORONA, CA. DEC. 2 It was a battle between North High School teammates and opponents tonight at Corona Raceway that provided some of the best action yet in early season high school competition. North riders Scott Bums and Chad Barnes led the 125cc Senior class through the first tum of moto one, only to tangle and go down exiting the sharp corner. Teammate Scott Mapes maneuvered around the mishap and into the lead with Upland's Tony Strangio in hot pursuit. The two pulled away to battle for the lead, never more than a few bikelengths apart. Mapes appeared to have a slight advantage on the uphills, but Strangio always managed to close any gap coming into the corners. Near the end of the third lap Strangio made his move, pulling alongside Mapes coming out of the hills and into the infield. Strangio couldn't hold the tight inside .line exiting the corner, drifting out into Mapes' rear wheel and crashing. Colton's Kevin Montgomery moved into second, but was too far back to make a charge at Mapes. Strangio remounted in time to salvage third behind Montgomery and Mapes. After resting a race, Burns once again came away with the holeshot in the l75cc Senior class, this time staying up through the first turn. Tustin's Greg Trachy tucked in behind, with Mapes in third. Trachy tried to get by Burn, was shut off a few times, then finally got by at the end of lap two. His lead didn't last long though, for a lap later he crashed, dropping to fifth and allowing Burns to retake the lead to the finish. Montgomery moved in on the closing lap, but couldn't quite get to within strikingdi lance before the checkered flew. It was a North sweep through the first turn of the second 125cc Senior moto, Barnes leading the way followed by Burns and Mapes. Barnes was out to make up for his misfortune in the first moto, and promptly ran away with the race, leavingBurns and Mapes to fight for second. But there was no real battle after Mapes got by on the first lap and left Burns on his own to fight off Strangio for third. This time trangio attacked on the outside but was repeatedly held off. Burns finally gave in near the end of the last lap when trangiosqueezed b¥,Qn the! . f) ~de4Q ,take thud Moru- gomery also got Burns at the end,' relegating him to fifth. Another brief break and once again it was all North out front of the second I 75cc Senior moto. This time Mapes led the way. with Barnes and Burns in pursuit. On lap twO Barnes was knocking at the door, but Mapes held him at bay. Another time around and they remained wheel to wheel. Barnes went to the inside on the long uphill, but was shut off at the top. When Mapes came outofthe hill, he was all alone, Barnes having crashed. Mapes was able to cruise to victory on the final lap, with the attention shifting to the duel for second. Montgomery was all over Burns, but this time Burns held his ground to finish runner-up and take the overall victory. The l25cc Pros and Intermediates were a combined class tonight and provided some interesting raci ng. Twd Pros, Cagiva's John Berg and Malcolm Smith/Yamaha's Vince McMahon, squared off against seven Intermediates. Sunwest Yamaha/ Team Tamm-rider Mark Decker grabbed the holeshot in the first moto and pulled a small lead over Wafer Schaeffer (Seer/Answer/Honda) and Berg. McMahon came around in last, having done an intentional dead engine start. Schaeffer held Berg back, allowing McMahon to close in on the second lap. only to and drop to seventh. Midway through the moLO Decker was still out front and Schaeffer still held Berg off. Jason Rincon (Rincon Kawasaki) got by Berg and began to pressure Schaeffer. McMahon was back on the ga and passed Berg, then had to fight his way by Rincon and Schaeffer. On the final lap he caught Decker, who put up a gallant fight to stay out front before surrendering the lead. McMahon and Berg must have not liked battling the Intermediates as they went (-2 at the start of moto two. Decker, Rincon, and Schaeffer were close on the opening laps, with Schaeffer dropping back slightly as the other two dueled. Rincon caught Decker at the halfway point, then I).eld him in second for the win. Schaeffer ended up in fifth by moto's end. Decker got the overall, and Rincon's 4-1 was good enough to get him second overall. • Results HIGH SCHOOL MINI NOV: 1. David Farris (UpI}: 2. Billie Paugh (L.S.); 3. James Moore (Nor). 100 SR; 1.
