DEC. 4 Speedway rider Donny Odom made his flat track debUt on Mike Hale 's 883 Harley David son, which was borrowed from Bartels H-D of Marina del Key, but it was Rick Hutchins who scored the 883 class win as the sound of thunder and the Southern California Flat Track AssocIation came to Glen Helen Raceway. When the green flag dropped at the start of the 883 main, Ron Bartels grabbed the holesho t while Hutchins quickly mad e h is move to the second spot. Odom charged by Fredd ie Orosco for third. Hutchins was wo rking the track high and low, and in lap four finally stuck his wheel under Bartels for the pass. Odom, who had finished first in the heats, saw the halfway flag and turned it on to rocket by Bartels for second and se t a fte r Hutchins. Odam was pressuring Hutchins, who'd found the groove he liked and was looking to the checkered. At the checkered it was Hutchins with the win, Odom second and Bartels third. The track was grooved and fast for the 2.5Occ Main. Dennis Briggs took h is Yamaha to the front at the start and never shut off, but Jim Rosa and Zimm Udovich me t the challenge. Rosa slid through the turns with precision, stuffing a wheel under Briggs, then working the high groove. But Briggs, with a little more traction, held the charging Rosa off. When Rosa bobbled at the halfway flag, Briggs turned it up a little more. With a few lap s to go, Briggs and Rosa came into a little traffic, and Rosa took advantage by closing the gap. With one lap to go, Rosa hooked it up a nd was sliding side by side through the final tum with Briggs. But Briggs had a little more power and come home with the win. Rosa took ho me second. The fans were ready for the l OOcc Main as the heats had been clas sic. At the green flag, three riders slid through tum one: Larry Spekto r, Jim Rosa and Denn is Briggs . Th e lead changed so many times it was hard to keep score, but final lap leader Rosa went high, and it as was Spektor cross ing the finish line first. Results 883: 1. Ibck H utchins (H-O ); 2.
