Th ere was no d oubt that Billy O lso n was the

tha t fact after Olson pos ted 1-1 mot o finishes?
After a two- ho ur de lay because of rain, the
firs t Micro Min i moto got und erw ay as Olson
p ut his Yama ha into the lea d followed by Bill
Krusmark, An thony Gardner and joe Ettesvold .
Olson set a blis tering pace that the others jus t
cou ldn't match . Olson scored a seemi ngly easy
first-m ote victo ry over by Kr usma r k and
Ettesvold, who passed Gardner for third.
In the seco nd moto, Ettesvold was the first
ride r through the first tu rn , but it wasn't long
before Olso n had the poi nt. Olson, once again,
too k the checkered flag goi ng away, w hile
Kru s mark wo r ke d h is way in to second a n d
Cha d Sorem in to third.
In the Mini Jr. class Isaac Will was qu ick to
p ut his Honda to the lead in the first comer fol·
Jowe d by Rand y Pa lm er an d Mitch ell

LaRa mme an d the rest o f the pack. Palmer went
on to win followed by Will and LaRamme.
In the second mo to, Will ho leshot, agai n,
on ly to be displaced by Palmer, but this time,

Campbell cleans up at
Perris Night Motocross
By Tony Alessi
PERRIS, CA, JULY 10
Pr yor Campbell won th ree o ut of four motos
tha t he entered en route to the overall wins in
the Vet Novice and +35 Novice classes d uring
round four of the GA Win a Truck Series, held
a t Perris Raceway .
Campbell raced closely d uring the two +35
Novice class mo tos with Gary Will and Greg
Pagan.
Campbell's fonnula for success was simp le:
lay low du ring the openi ng laps, the n cha rge
like gang busters in the last half of each mo to.
Campbell posted two comma nd ing wins in the
+35 class over Will and Pagan.
Ca m p bell se emed to take a d ifferent
approach in the Vet Novice class, which may
have been considered the more-competitive of
the two classes that he raced. Campbell pulled a
monster ho leshot in the first moto and ran away
with an easy win. Mark San dmizer gave chase
ea rly in the race, b ut got mo re and more sq uirrelly as the race wore on .
" I d id n' t eat all day and I was weak," said
Sandmizer.
Cha rging fro m ou tside of the top five was
CT Falk, wh o eventua lly worked into the runne r-u p p osition behi nd Campbell. San dmizer
fa d ed to fifth a t the fin is h behin d S te v e
Wisem an and David Holland, who fin is he d
th ird and fou rth, respec tively.
The second rnoto sa w jim Perry ou t front for
the first half of the race. Wiseman was makin g a
retu rn to MX after a n early retire me nt and
seemed full of energy. Wiseman p assed Perry
near a rocke r sec tion, after Perry bobb led and
laid his motorcycle on its side. Wiseman po ured.
it on and went on for the mota win ove r Perry
a nd Campbell. Campbell earned the overall win
with his 1-3 rnoto finishes.
Ernie Garcia scored his first win of the series
in the +25 Beginner class. Garcia and Chris Gallo
had a ba r-to-bar ba ttle throu ghou t the first
rnoto, w ith Garcia keeping his th rot tle pegged
for the win.
Th e second mo to saw Ga rcia chase down .
and pa ss a very tired Chris Craft for the moto
and overall wins.
john Or tiz rode a good race withou t the luxury of a sea t, and finished behind Almangos a nd
Danny Farr, who rounded out the top five.
