.Shaw captures three at Moroso RR
By Joe McKa y
WEST PALM.BEACH, FL,APR. 28
R ick Shaw reac hed Victory Circle in three
events at"Mor oso Motorsports Pa rk , in the
third ro u nd of the Florida Mot or cycle Road
Racing Seri es.
.
Sha w started his day in th e GTO So lo
Enduran ce 50-Mile even t by outdistancing
secon d- p lac e finisher Rick He rndo n an d
third-p lace Fra nk Kin sey. Shaw came back o ut
in the H eavyweight Su perbike class a nd again
too k the checkers first 10 a hard-fough t ba ttl e
with Gl enn Barry . On the last lap , Shaw
p ulled out a slig ht lead over Barry a nd Tam
Soroh, who was five seconds behind Barry .
Wh en it came time for the $1000 Shoot-O ut ,
Sh aw took 0 [£ after Rick Hern don, who got
the ho lesh o t. Herndon knew Shaw was
co m i ng and figured that some kind of a lastlap pass was in the works. T rue to for m, Shaw
set h im up in tu rn five as the two dece lerated
from 160 mph 1065. Shaw o ut bra ked Hern don
o n the i nside, forcing him to widen h is arc
co m in g into the co rner. Shaw got by for the
lead, one that he wou ld not give u p . John
Cox 1II had one of hi s best raci ng days at
Moroso as he pus hed bo th Shaw and Herndo n
for the entire five-lap dash, making several '
a ttempts to pass bot h of them com in g ou t of
the draft o n the lo ng back straight, Cox took
a shot a t the lead one last time on th e final
lap, but slipped 0[£ the track. He recovered
without losing third place just ahead of Mi ke
Barnes. At the checkers it was Shaw by a bi ke
length over Herndon, with Cox , Barnes and
Joey Co le ro u nding o ut the top five. Shaw
