.Pittman, Roberti hit triples
at PIR Road Race
By R uss Cazier
PORTLAN D, OR, AUG. 18
J oe Pi tt man and Shawn Roberti each wo n
three classes at the O rego n Mot orcycl e Roa d
Racing Association mee t at Port land Internationa l Raceway. P ittman won hand ily in
Open Producti on , b u t it too k him four laps
to grab the lead in 750cc Prod uct ion, as Mark
McDaniel and Sha wn Roberti stayed close (or
the rest o( the 10 lap race .
In th e O pen Su perbike class at (irs t it looked
like another easy wi n for Pittma n. b ut Keith
P inks taff ma de i t close o n th e last lap by
sneak in g up th ro ugh a pa ck o ( lapped ri ders.
Shawn Roberti ra n aw ay with th e 600cc
Superbike class win, but it took h im (ive laps
to ge t to the fro nt in th e Midd lew eit:ht
Supe rbike d ivision. The 600cc Pr oductton
ra ce was red-fl agKed (o r a two-bike crash at
the sta rt-fi n ish fin e, but Ro bert i qu ickly
rega in ed the lead on th e restart a nd cruised
hom e fo r th e win . Rob er ti's best race may hav e
been his th ird pl ace in the 750cc Superbike
class o n a stock bi ke aga inst· a str ong field
o( modified machinery.
Zlock Racing 's fo ray into the world o( non Suzuki mo tor cycles paid o ff (or Pinkstaff ,
provid ing him a very (ast Kawasaki ZX7 and
a relatively easy win in 750cc Su perbi ke class.
Pinkstaff said , .. It 's ta ken us th ree races to
get everyth ing dialed in , but it wor ked very
well today."
Best two man race o ( the day was probably
between David Roo kaird and David Lanigan
in the 650cc Bat tle o ( The Twins . In both
seven lap hea ts, the wave start a nd m ix of
bikes saw them in to lap ped traHic by the
(ou rth la p . a nd th ei r private battle was
co mp lica ted by a host o ( slower riders to weave
through. Lanigan wo n the (irst hea t, barely,
and Rookaird won the second, barely, and the
overall.
