In one of the mor e p opular classes, Avera rounded the first tum in second pla ce in the 17 rider strong 15-24 class. Steve Dumond led the way , but his advantage would only last until the second lap when jeff Neilander, who had earlier passed Avera , slipped by Dumond ror the numbe r· on e p os ition . Shortly thereafter, Avera nipped Dumond ror second, the n Avera set arter the leader, Neilander. Avera and Neilander battled for the lead until Avera passed Neilande r in a comer. From that point on, the moto was all Avera's, as he moved out to a four-second lead . Neilande r he ld on ro r seco n d , while M ike Decker finished third after slip p ing by Dumond. Avera rocketed into the lead to start the second moto ahead of jacob Fogg. Doug Watson. Dave Wincott and Decker. Fogg quickly shot by Avera for the lead on the opening lap . Watson and Wincott battled for third until Wincott went d ow n ta ki ng Decke r w ith him. Th is moved Jason Peres into fourth with Wincott remounting in firth . Meanwhile, Fogg motored away from the pack to take a seemingly easy win. but a 12th pl ace finish in the first m oto relega ted him to sevent h overall. Avera, who fini shed second, scored the overall win ahead or Watson, Peres and Wincott. Later in the da y, Avera returned to the track and wo n both 125cc motos.

By the fo u rth lap Yezek's Team Green Kawasaki was right on jones' rear whee l and the crowd got to see a great race. Yezek tried to force jones into an erro r but jo nes would n't bite. With the close action ou t fro n t, Buehl slowly closed on the leaders, and when the whi te flag ca me ou t, he was wi thi n tw o seconds of the leader. jones did n't hold back on the last lap and he took th e ch eckered fla g tw o bik e lengths ahead or Yezek. Buehl grabbed third and Reed fourth. jones and Yezek got the jump on the pack in the second mota, whil e Buehl was stuck back in n inth. How ever, Buehl sliced his wa y thr ough the field and by the end of the first lap he had h is Yamaha up to third place. Jones mad e a minor bobble on the second lap a n d Yezek roared into the lead.
