ADELANTO, CA,MAR. 25
Jim Rosa took a borrowed bike and showed the
pr os the fast wa y around Sunrise Valley Raceway's new quarter~mile clay ova l durin g the
sh ort tra ck season op en er in th e m ot or cycl efriendl y city of Ade lanto.
The Rosa Con cep ts'-backed Rosa led almo st
wire to wire in both races of the two-moto format aboard an M&M /Tony Hoover /Dove Oil sponsor ed Yamaha. Wood-Rotax-mounted Jim
K"sler led the pros into tum one tailed by Rosa,
A.J. Hererra, Dave Pefton and Dave Rust . Rosa
ran inside Kesler to take the lead down the back
straight and left him to fend off the assault of
Hererra, who tried for sev era l lap s to run outside of Kesler. making a pass stick on lap five.
Ke
ster came to take second back. running hard
int o tum three and taking the runner-up spot
briefly unti l his engine stall ed . He managed to
bump it off again. but Hererra and Dave Alexan d er slip pe d past , leavin g Kesl er fou rt h at the
flag.
Rick Pearce appeared to lead a pack containing Hererra, Rosa and Alexander int o th e firs t
com er, but Rosa once again came out on top of
the pa ck of Rota x rid e rs . Pear ce mom en tarily
p assed back for top spot. but Rosa ra n in low
and took the lead back . Hererrra pulled alo ngsid e Pearce, and the tw o sw a ppe d seco nd for
severa l laps. Hererra eventu a lly pulled aw ay
and aime d fo r th e lead er. But Rosa held the
ins ide lin e. forcing Her erra to take a high line
that carried him alo ngside the leader and looking to ma ke the pa ss stick. As the white flag
came out Rosa and Hererra stayed side by side,
bu t Her e rra hit a slic k spot in tu m three and
low-si de d . handing to p honor s to Rosa, who
wa s followed to the che cke red flag by Pearce,
Kesler and Alexan de r.
The m odern vin ta ge cla ss looked like a
Track mast e r reunion as it left the line , led by
Don Mein er ' s TISOO. Me in er was ch'asc d by
Steve Hensl ey's BSA and the Trium phs of Rick
Rockhold and Chris Wakula. Rockh old found a
line he liked and ran around the ou tsid e of the
leaders on lap five, pulling awa y to take the first
race. Hen sley worked pa st Mein er for seco nd,
putting Trackm asrer bikes in the top tw o spots.
