Seidel, but after about 10 minutes of
the 20-minute moto Bollon slipped"
down in a berm and was unable to
finish. While Martin was running
second he started jumping a set of
jumps that were not meant to be
doubles. He nailed them lap after
lap, proving this might be the edge
he needed to beat McCabe in the
second moto.
Moto two started just like the first,
except Martin was close behind
McCabe when they approached the
tree line jump section. McCabe shut
down for the double while Martin
upshifted to fourth and made a
spectacular pass. McCabe got right
behind Martin's bike and again, his
conditioning paid of£. About halfway through the molO, McCabe
motored by Martin to take a double
moto win over the former Japanese
National Champion. Seidel again
finished third, .giving him a third
overall for the day.
Moto one of the SOcc Minis
bro'ught a race that had three lead
changes with all three riders on
different. brand machines. Jason
Sybert, aboard a Honda, was out
front with Wayne Wilkie on. a
Kawasaki chasing him. Tony
Haynes and Mall Smith, both on
Yamahas, raced hard to stay behind.
Sybert slipped down on the big
tabletop letting all three of the next
riders pass. With Wilkie in the lead,
Haynes started to reel him in. Wilkie
stalled his motor, letting Haynes run
for the checkered flag, leaving Sybert,
Willie and Smith finishi~g second,
third, and fourth.
Second molO action had Sybert
pull the holeshot again. Haynes got
right behind Sybert with Wilkie
following close beh~nd in third.
Haynes' experience on the demanding Desoto track worked in his favor
as he passed Sybert on the roughest
section of the track. Haynes took a
double moto win with Sybert second
and Wilkie third. Kimberly Sybert
wound up with fourth overall.
