OTHG at DeAnza
By Glenn Worrall
The 250cc Pros also featured furious racing and constant changes.
Eric Sackett, who was on the gas all
day,streaked to the front of his class to
start the first moto. But in the end it
was scrappy Pat S'hields with tlle first
moto win. Shields exploded to holeshot the second moto, but Sackett
motored right on by. Johner Kight,
back on the track after a long layoff,
was also jousting for the lead. Sackett
looked quick, but the Motorcycle
Tire Center/Dixie Kawasaki-sponsored rider couldn't stay on two wheels
for any length of time, and crashed
two or three times during the moto.
This opened the door for Scott U nderwood. Underwood, racing on an older
model M-Star, wasted no time in
winning the mota and wrapping up
, the 250cc Pro title. Shields finished in
second with Kight third and Sackett
fourth.
Honda of Las Vegas' Chris Trickle
popped the holeshot in race two
ahead of Frank Singer and Hodge.
Trickle held the throttle open and
continued to lead but Singer, Pacino
and Flores fell in behind him to form
a four-man freight train for the lead.
On the white £lag lap, Flores had
battled past Pocino for third place.
The tOP four positions stayed the
same for the rest of the race. Overall
results put Flores in first, Singer
second, Pacino in third.
