the lap times of Shorts and Phillips, maintainin"g a 50- to 55-second lead on Lockhart. Both Atwell and Rentzell ran in the I :27 to I :28 bracket with occasional times dipping into the 26s. With the race for the overall lead continuing between ew Haven and Lockhart the GTU lead con-' tinued to stay with Out Be Out. While holding onto second in GTU, Sport Cycle pitted and spent an unusually long period in the pits. With Roe out on the jam-Up entry and closing on Sport Cycle, jam-Up moved around Sport Cycle for second before the Sport Cycle FZ could get out of the pits. Out Be Out held a two-lap lead on jam-Up which would last to the end of the race. As the race neared the final hour the skies began to darken and storm clouds moved in. The pits were a Ourry of activity with New Haven, Lockhart, and Taylor Racing gelling rain tires mounted in case they would be needed. Also in question at this point was the fuel situation with both Lockhart and New Haven concerned about having enough to finish. Lockhart's pit crew looked at New Haven's and vice-versa, both waiting for the other to make a pit stop. With about 20 minutes left in the race it started to sprinkle, making an already slippery track even more so. Lockhart talked of bringing Shorts in to top orr the tank, hoping e Haven would also pit. RentzeLl slowed his pace and Shorts closed on the New Havenl Du n 10p/N D/Spectro/Coswonh GSXRllOO. "It's a cat and mouse game right now," said Lockhart's Phillips. "I think we can finish on what gas we have; he's been out an hour and a haU," said ew Haven"s Duguid, adding, "The last lap is K~vin's WOrSl." Shorts' charge wa .too little too late as Remzelltook the checkers, followed by Lockhart, Team Dean, Taylor Roadracing and SBeL Enterprises, all Suzuki GSXR-moumed. In the winner's circle both Lockhart and New Haven' gas tanks were almost dry. Following the GT winners, Out Be Out Racing came JamUp and Sport Cycle Racing. Rentzell continued his winning in Sunday's sprint races by dominating Formula One and Two and taking firsts in Unlimited and Heavyweight SuperbikeExpert alternating between a Suzuki GSXR 750 and using the. same Yamaha FZ600 Rowe and Sloan rode in the endurance race to win F-Two. Spoiling Rentzell's near-perfect day was jimmy Adamo, who made a last lap pass in turn three to win the Middleweight Superbike race. Adamo al 0 won the Super Twins race and Formula Twins race. - ~ o ....... AMA Amateur Youth MIX National Championship 1st: Mercedes Gonzalez, Kaw.
