mor e of a battle, with Marty Hernandez taking
second in the first mota but falling to 10th in the
second to fini sh fifth overall. Greg Brydie had
his problems in the first mota, finishing 13th but
came back strong to take second in moto two ,
still not enough for a trophy . Shane Anderson

consistent, going 4-3 and 3-4, respectively for the
third and fourth place trop hies.

well as a 250cc Beginner and winning the first
mo to . Andy Bohr was second after a fourthplace start. Bohr came on strong early to take
first in the second moto while Anderson fin ished th ird behind John Rogers. Rogers had a
slow start in the first moto and worked his way

enough to give him the third p lace trophy.

in front all the way for first overall. The second place trophy went to Anderson.
Willie Giroir had his wa y in the Senior class ,
winning both motos. Carlos Almada was third.
