Jon Nelson. Manley got by Fowler in a tum to take over the lead on lap two while Stanton had moved into fourth, followed by Frank, Watts, Matiasevich and Kawasaki rider Frank Brundage. Manley dropped out with a dead ignition on lap two, and Stanton passed Fowler to take the lead. Stanton was out front and still pulling away as the moto drew to a close. On lap eight Stanton was followed by a fading Fowler, Yamaha rider Jeff Mabery, Kalos and Nelson. Davis, who had been running in the top five, tangled with Fowler, fell and remounted in sixth pJace. On the last lap Maybery and Kalos had passed Fowler, while Davis had charged into fifth. Stanton won the moto followed by Mabery, Kalos, Fowler and Davis. Suzuki's Surratt nailed the holeshot in the second 250cc moto and . increased his lead with every tum. He was trailed by Stanton, Kiedrowski, Frank, Davis and Mabery. Surratt's lead was gone by the end fo the second lap when a nasty bump popped the front tire on his RM, allowin~ Stanton to move into the lead. Kiedrowski was in a' solid second, followed by Frank, Davis, and Matiasevich. The top four remained the same for the rest of the race, while Mabery and Watts moved into their finishing positions of fifth and sixth, respectively, when Matiasevich got off hard in a sweeper and dropped out of the race. At tbe end of the first lap of the first moLO in 125cc Pro action Pascarella had control of the lead followed by Moore, Craig, Kiedrowski, Yamaha rider Mike Young, Mabery, Davis, Kyle Lewis and j\1atiasevich. By the end of the third lap Moore had moved in on Pascarella and waited until the fourth lap to strike. At the bottom of the large tabletop jump Moore went to the outside and simply carried a harder drive out of the tum and moved into the lead. At this point Davis had moved up'to fourth, and began to surge on the leaders. Kiedrowski dropped out when his bike quit, while Lewis held on to the fifth spot just ahead of Matiasevich and Doug Dubach. On the eighth lap Lewis bobbled and let Matiasevich and Dubach by. Matiasevich got on the gas and moved by Davis for fourth, making the order Moore, Pascarella, Craig, Matiasevich, Davis and Dubach. Matiasevich made a last lap char~e on Craig, moved up alongside CraIg and passed him on the inside of a sweeper. A little further down the track Matiasevich hit a nasty lip on the end of a small jump, got radically sideways in the air and highsided when he landed. Moore took the win just ahead of Pascarella, Craig was back in third and Davis took fourth. Fifth went to Dubach who charged to the finish and almost passed Davis in the last tu·rn. When the gate fell for the second molO Manneh beat everyone to the first tum ou t the start was called back. Young led Manneh on the restart with Davis, Craig, Pascarella and Lewis following. Rounding a long sweeper Manneh's rear tire lost grip which allowed Davis to get by and stay right with Young. Young and Davis battled for the lead and pulled away from the pack until Young's Cagiva broke, giving Davis an I I second lead. Manneh was now in second and being chased by Pascarella. On the seventh lap the top three remained tbe same and behind them was a trio of riders running very close together. Lewis led this bunch followed by Moore and Dubach. After running close through several turns Dubach made his move and passed both Moore and Lewis within two turns. Up front Davis was all alone and Pascarella had moved into second. On the last lap Manneh, who held third, was being chased down by Dubach and when Manneh went wide on the last straight Dubach went inside and rocketed into the air and passed him. Davis cruised under th~ checkers for first and Pascarella siezed two turns from the finish line, which cost him the overall victory. Dubach came through second ahead of Manneh, Moore and Manley who had just moved into the fifth spot. In the first molO of the 125cc Junior division two class Ricky Lutz jammed to the front of the pack and never looked back. Mark Stuen held contra] of second for two laps until Scott Schroeder got by and began to close on Lutz. Time ran out before Schroeder could close in and Lutz took the win. . Todd Starks performed flawlessly in the second moto taking the win and overall victory after his third place finish in moto one. The 500cc Junior class was dominated by Kawasaki-mounted John Cameron. Chuck Bagwell was leading the first moto when he crashed and gave the win to Cameron. Cameron took the second round too over Bagwell, who claimed second overall with 2-2 scores. Jon Nicolaus _ was third overall via 3-5 rides. '" t- ... Q,) ,.0 o .... U o Ty Davis (11) chases Mike Kiedrowski in the first 125cc Pro moto.
