he Class C flat tra k equipent was brought to Baylands
aceway Park to ride a track
sed all season long by the Class
speedway racers. The experimem
as very ucce sful and the emhusism of fans and racers was as positive
nd jubilant as the nights' best rider,
ob Damron. Damron rounded out
the 1986AMA Camel PTa season with
wo very solid finishes in the Junior
.vision and tonight he further proved
t at he is keenly tuned to the demands
of racing.
At the Clash of the green light in the
final Damron was into the first corner
with Cory Perreault, a hot new prospect from San Jose. Perreaults' hard
oharging style brought the two rdcers
LOgether several time in the early
running but neither fell. The smooth
as silk track and wide racing surface
allowed the riders a number of lines
through thecorners.1L was because of
this that Damron was able to sct up
Perreault; he'ttake Perreault into the
corner hard and use an outside line
which invited Perreault in low. Damron then would make a point out o[
the corner and dive back underneath
Perreault coming out. Their baule
carried them 20 feet in front of the
pack of 10 other competitors.
Damron carried the lead to the
checkers jlnd Perreault was able to
hold off Kris Kiser. For the early pan
of Ihe final Frank Sandwz held third
place behind Perreault but a near
brush with the wall in the third turn
allowed Kiser to take the posi tion
away. Damron and his Rotax were
picture perfect.
