February 18 I EARN $JOO.OO OR MOREl • I The he ight of the European invasion on to the American motocross scene was i n the early 1970's w it h the popular TransAMA Series . In 1971 , fo r example, no American f in ish ed in t he Top Ten standings. So, the fo llowing year, when Sweden 's Ake Johnson won t h e ser ies , people were not surpr ised . But t hey were surprised i n t he way he won. It began on October B, 1972 at St . Peters, MO. Ake won t he t hird race of the series. He won again in Georg ia t he next weekend, and made it t hree i n a row in Flori da. His fourth came in Houst on, TX and n um ber f ive st ra igh t at Car lsbad, CA. Joel Robert held th e recor d of six i n a row in 1970 and A ke t ied him w it h another w in in Phoe nix, AZ.. Th e record was broke n t he f oll owing weekend at Puya llup, WA and added to at Liver more, CA on November 26. Th e f ina l race of t he se r ies was at Sadd leback Park , CA on December 3 and Ake won aga iri, making it nine Trans-AMA eve nts in a row. Cons ide r ing t ha t second overa ll Roger DeCoster was the 500cc World Champion and t hi rd overall Heikki M ikkola was soon to be 500cc .World Champ, it was truly an amazing win streak.
