Two straight for Schwartz
at Speedway USA

VICTORVILLE, CA, MAY 8
A sellout crowd watched Bobby Schwartz score
his second straight victory at Speedway USA
Saturday night. Schwartz, who is in his 20th
year of speedway competition, battled his way
to the Scratch main event win after an altercation with Eddie Castro in the six-lap Handicap
heat race which led to a lot of unkind words,
some threats, a little shoving and eventually a
two-lap grudge race which Schwartz won.
As he entered the track for his showdown
with Castro, Schwartz was greeted with boos
from the charged-up crowd. On his victory lap,
one fan cried out. "May the Schwartz be with
you."
The Scratch main pitted Schwartz against
John Aden. Steve Lucero and Scott Brandl Uke
a man possessed, Schwartz shot to the front
from his number two starting position and led
flag-to-flag. followed across the finish line by
Lucero, Brandt and Aden. in that order.
One rider who didn't measure up to his normal front 'running performance was former
National Champion Mike Faria. Faria placed
third behind Schwartz and Aden in the second
Scratch semi which moved him to the Scratch
consolation race that he won over Castro and
Andy Northrup.
The night's closest finishes were Lucero's
half-bike length win over Brandt in the first
Scratch semi and Jim Estes' "inches ahead" of
Brandt in the Handicap main evenl
Missing from action this week at Speedway
USA were National Champion Chris
Manchester ~ho was racing in northern
California and first-year Support class rider
Angela Hale, who suffered a broken leg while
racing at Perris two nights earlier. Ms. Hale will
be sidelined indefinitely.
