'holes'hol, and he took the early lead!,
The first lap saw Kawasaki's Corsetti
in a tow with Gresham, Gray and
Yamaha's -Dave Kerr following. For
the first few laps, the racers were single file; but on lap four, Corsetti
passed Gresham along the back
straight. As the two battled coming
out of turn four, Gresham had the
better drive. Gresham stuffed his wheel·
under Corsetti's, and as they exited
tum two, Gresham had regained the
lead. Meanwhile, Gray was having
troubles adjusting to his borrowed
motorcycle and Kerr had pulled off
with mechanical problems.
At the halfway point, Gresham
went on to win the main, with Corsetti and Gray rounding out the field.
In the 250cc Novice main, Yamaha's
Garnett Estes had an outstanding
start. After completing the first lap,
Estes led with Kawasaki's Shane Oldham giving the older Estes some heat.
Estes led the entire eight laps, but he
almost lost the race on the final lap.
The former minicyde racer Oldham
made a last-effort try going into turn
three. Estes stayed inside, but Oldham
tried a "John Allison" outside move.
He almost lost it, but he held on 10
finish second. This gave Estes his
second victory in a row.
