By Tony Alessi

PERRIS, CA, NOV. 12
TIm Beatty bro ught pride to his dealer; North
Co u nty Yama ha , by posting a do ub le moto
sweep of the 125cc Int ermed iat e class during
round two of the GFI Dealers Series at Perris
Raceway .
The first mo to saw Rand y Danylo pull the
holeshot. Dan ylo, who was racing his first Intermed iat e race af ter a rece nt tr an s fer from the
Novice ran ks, was no matc h for Beatty or Eric
Schnell, who both p romptly pa ssed Danylo by
the end of the first lap.
Beatty set a blistering pace that none of the
other racers could match and went on for the
eventual win over Schnell and Glenn Branson,
who wa s ra cin g his new Ho nd a for the first
GREENVILLE, KY, OCT.30
Shad Rickets aboard his Modern Ti re /Bob 's
Cycle-backed ATK ou tdistanced the competition
on a day of action-packed competitive racing in
a11 classes d uring the three Creek Hare Scramb le
in the rolling hills of Western Kentucky.
For Ricket s, th is win was especi ally sw eet
since it was his first major win after suffering a
cras h in April that sha ttered h is wrist. The day
didn' t star t ou t so we ll for Rickets, as he dr·
cled in eigh th place on the first lap afte r having
to stop and make so me minor ad jus tments on
h is clutch levers. This allowed Mike Cornell, in
his rook ie year as a AA compet itor , to take first
place. Cornett continued to build a lead on the
re st of the AA class until a tangle wit h a
lapped ride r on the third of six lap s ended the
charge.
Cornett wa s up and go in g ag a in but not
until Ricketts, who had been stead ily working
his way to the front , shot past. Cornett continued in second until the futh lap when d isaster
struck in the fonn of a rear flat tire . john Machino got around, as did Ja red Gree n aboard a
KLX
650 Kawasaki. Machino and Green continued their battl e over second and third to the finish in that order.
Former Na tiona l Hare Scramb les Champion
Ton y Hendon, now a Vet A rider, caught and
passed a s tru gg lin g Cornett on th e last lap .
Another top competi tor was Kawasalcimounted
Doug jones, who also fell victim to a flat tire bu t
managed to hold on to fifth in the AA class.

time.
Beatty led the way in the all-important second moto, but this time he had Schnell breathing
dow n the back of hi s jers ey . Th e tw o ri de rs
engaged in arguably the best battle of the day.
Sch nell seemed the faster o f the two bu t
every time Schnell poked a wheel in, Beatty
would look over and bloc1< the line.
The two raced inches apa rt the remainder of
the ra ce, w ith Beatty prevailing in the end .
SchneU rod e great but had to settle for secon d in
fron t of Ray Bowers and forme r minibike ace
Jerr y Alema n, wh o was debuting his new
YZI25.
Sean Ham blin was the star mini racer of the
day, as he smoked to a pa ir of uncontested moto
wins in the 80cc Intermediate class. Chris Rogers
was equally impressive in the 80cc Novice class
by scoring the overall victory after two motos of
close racing with Dylan Lord.
