l2See, 250ee and 500cc Pro competition during
round t hree 01 th e CMC Suns tar Sprocket s
Spring Classic National.
The 2SOcc Pro s were the first racers to challenge the one-mile track , described as rough, last
and d emanding. As the action got underway, it
wa s Velv etouch-sponsored Ty Birdwell wh o
was quick est off the gat e, chased by Rusty Holla nd , Scott Mye rs , Gr eg Tirhei mer, De nni s
Krit zer and the rest 01 the 14-r id e r Pro field .
Birdwell's lead lasted for two laps until Holland
took con trol of first , but a ra re mistake moments
later ha nded the lead back to Birdwell, as CPE
racing's Seott Myer s also snu ck past Holland,
who recov ered quickly and fended off chal lenges from Tirheimcr and Pat Gomm before
breaking Iree to chas e alter Myers. Ho lland
eventually passed Myers then we nt alter Birdwell as the whi te flag flew .
Birdwell had enjoyed a hea lthy lead going
into th e final circu it, but some ho w Ho lland
ca ught up with hi m , and wh en the racers
emerged from the back section and blazed down
the final straight, Holla nd had the lead . Holland
took the flag over Bird well, Myers, Gom m and
Tirhcimer.
Gomm holeshot moto two and held olf HoIland for two la ps, but there was no d enying Holland this day, as he dispa tched Gomm and ran
awa y fro m the pack to win hand ily at the end 01
seven lucky laps. Chasi ng Ho lla nd ho me were
Gomm, Myers , Rick Ryan and Jon Nelson.
In the 12Scc and SOOcc Pro contests the story
was sim ila r, w ith the exceptio n of the second
