Munson aces Dealer's Challenge at SIR Motocross By Sh ell ey Ross SEATIll, WA, JULY 20-21 Dealers and rid ers from all over the Pacific Northwest turned out for thi s year s Dealer's Challe nge, at-Seaule Interna tio na l Raceway Motocross Track, with Jamie Munson holding all the aces in b oth th e 250 and Open Pro classes . 1 In hi s first 250cc Pro moto, Munson grabbed the holes ho t, with Scott St effy and J oe G reenwood bat tling for the second position. Munson set th e pace a nd after th e second lap had attained a comfortable lead. Mean wh ile, Steffy was experiencing bike tro ub les and had fallen ba ck to fifth , allowing Greenwood to ta ke ove r second with his brother Mike rounding out th e top three. Mu nson increased his lea d by 10 seconds to finish ahead of J De G reenwood, who took second followed close ly by Mike Greenwood in third. Mu nson 's nex t mo ta was th e Open Pro. Again he blasted ou t of th e gate to pull the ho leshot followed closely by Aaron Shardlema n. Mu nso n ma intained his lead u nt il the third la p, w he n Shardleman too k him out on the corner, befo re the set of triples. By the time Munson go t his bi ke restarted, he was in last positio n. He set ou t after the !,:,ck and within a half a lap had passed two riders an d was gai ning o n two mor e. He passed Peter T readwell and Brett Bierek in a corner, at the same time and was clos ing in on the leader Aaron Sha rdleman. By the fourth lap he was breathing down Shard leman's neck . Feeli ng th e heat, Shardlema n turned a nd saw Munson ri ght on his tail. Shardleman mu st have realized that stuffing Munson th e lap before was a mi stake, because Munson instead came up a longside Shardle ~ ma n a nd stayed with him going into th e corner, as if 10 cha llenge him. Shardleman slowed do wn further . Munson, however, was not u p for a rematch, so he roosted pa st h im an d went o n to fin ish first, well a head of Shardleman, who took second with Bierek bringing up third. Wi th Munson ha vin&: won hi s firs t two motos in eac h class, thiS appear ed to h av e set the pattern· fo r the rema ining motos.

The rugged clay co ur se at Carlsbad can ha mmer a rider to a pulp even o n mo dern suspended bikes , but i t is especially difficult in the Vintage class, wh ere the bikes are at lea st 10 years ol d. Grabbi ng th e hol esh o t in the firs t mot e was Louis Ha rker aboa rd a per fectl y-restored CZ. Engel ha rd t was in seco nd fo llowed by Keith Brown o n a Triumph. Brown 's da y' quickly soured as his bike began to spu tte r o n th e first lap du e to ca rburetio n problem s wh ich lat er forced him to reti re. En gelhardt pressured Harker for a co up le o f laps befor e s to r m i ng into th e lead o n hi s Honda El sinor e. ' T he next rid er to ch a llenge H ark er for second wa s Lee H olth. H olth pa ssed Ha rker briefl y but wa s repassed a shorttim e later. At the .ch eckered it was Engel hardt by a bi g margin over H arker , Holth and Guy Ward. Holth grabbed a bi g ho leshot at the start of rnot o two with En gl ehardt right on hi s tail. Ward was o n ly a short distance ,back o n h is Bu ltaco Pursang. Ward pounded the Bu ltaco, but it was no match for Englehard t's Ho nda as h e shot by for good. En gl ehardt took the moto win followed by Holth and Ward. "I'd like to tha nk San Diego Cycle Supply," said Englehardt, "without them I wou ldn 't be able to k~p this thing tog ether ."
