Warren settled into the lead with Brooks and Frank close behind. As the race progressed, Brooks pulled slightly away from Frank while staying glued to Warren's rear fender. Brooks made a strong attempt to pass Warren on the final lap but came up a few turns too short. The second semi was a reaJ thriller and had- the crowd on its feet the whole race. It began when Dubach shot into the lead and developed a quick, good-size lead. But the real battle was over second between Suzuki's A.]. Whiting and Honda r~der Guy Cooper. Cooper held second early in the race, while Whiting pursued. During the second lap, Whiting stuffed Cooper in a turn and took over second, but Cooper sailed by Whiting a double-jump later. Shortly after, Cooper and Whiting tangled in a turn with both riders going down. Yamaha rider Scott Manning then motored by the downed riders and into second place; while Cooper remounted right behind him. Whiting picked back up in fifth. Now the fight was between Manning arid Cooper. The two riders fought tooth-and-nail until Cooper got caught in a mean tank-slapper and crashed out of contention. Meanwhile, Whiting had worked back into third and started pressuring Manning. With the white £Jag in sight, the two were inches apart. Dubach easily took the win, while Manning finished second, a wheellength ahead of Whiting. P.tronlze the.. fun ..rvlce Mond.·ret nd ..nice f.cllltle..
