First time Pro victory for Rutherford By Tom Corley ORANGE, CA, JUNE 10 Cen tuI)' Motorcycles-sponsored Tim Rutherford achieved his first 125cc Pro victory in today's California Racing Club motocross at Saddleback. Dan Bolle Racing's Edwin Arnet went two-for-two to take the 250cc Pro honors, while Yamaha's Rick johnson made a rare appearance and left with the 500cc Pro title. Rutherford is a former Mini Expert who made a recent comeback and advanced quickly to the Pro ranks. Rutherford battles the likes of Ron Turner at Ascot, but this time he decided to try a daytime event - and it paid off. The line-up included some very fast competition, including long-time Pro Gary Denton. In the first moto it was a two-man battle between Simpson!T&O Yamaha rider Richard Fleming and Suzuki of Riverside's Denton. Disastrously, those two hots hoes tangled on Webco Hill. Rutherford was following Denton so closely that he plowed right over Denton. This incident caused both Fleming and Denton to discontinue racing for the rest of the day. Rutherford took the win over Ray Romero, Rich Truchinski and Charles Osterday.
