IRacing Honda in front for good as they left the second turn, with George, Harold Hillard, and Brian Hall behind. By the middle laps, Hall and Max George were heatedly battling over third and that went to Max by a length. With Dave Lesnick and Joe Heberling taking the 250 and 500cc Amateur classes again, another rider took his first win ever in the l25cc Amateur final. Gary Foard's win was set up when Mike Sponseller, who has dominated his class all year, elected. to sit this one out. Sponseller did let Harold Dorsey borrow his bike after Dorsey's broke in practice. Dorsey put the borrowed bike in front, but Foard was by at the end of the opening lap, with Travis Nuckols and Brian Strong following Dorsey. About halfway through the race, Dorsey slid out, giving Foard a winning cushion of almost a strai,?'htaway. r Results 500. EX: 1. Eric George (H-D); 2. Rob Majeski (H-D); 3.

Larsen triumphs at Ascot Spdwy By Scott Daloisio GARDENA, CA, OCT. 10 Josh Larsen won a thrilling three-rider runoff and became the-1986 Junior Speedway National Champion at Chris Agajanian's Ascot South Bay Stadium tonight. Larsen, a 14-year-old from Newport Beach, California, became the fifth different winner in as many years. Even though he was matched against a number of l6-year-olds he was one of the pre-race choices by the experts. Trinon Cirello, the 1984 champion, started off the evening with a win in event one. Larsen (Fishing Boats U nlimited/Cirello Racing/Tripp ElectriclTuna, lnc.lBell Weslake) won event three over David Busby who fell and was shaken on the 'first try to run the event. One of the pivotal races of the night came in event six when Cirello and Larsen were matched. On the first try to run the race they tangled and wentdown hard in turn three bringing out the red-flag. Miraculously neither rider was injured and they both made the call for the restart and Cirello led it tape to checkered with Larsen a close second. Busby came back from his first round defeat to post a win in the second round of action. After two rounds Cirello and Billy Felts were tied for first with six points each while Busby and Larsen both lurked one poim behind. Busby simply scorched the field in event nine while Cirello won over Tim Gewecke in event 10. Third spot was taken by the cushion-riding Felts. Larsen ended the round by winning his second race of the evening by a wide margin. Cirello looked to have the championship going back home with him, . but Busby held him at bay all the way in event 14.
