]] and 80cc 7-]1 classes. Bess was without
a doubt the dominant 60cc racer of the
weekend, but a mistake in moto one
opened the door for Billy Swapp, who
was able to capitalize on Bess' error and
capture one class victory on Saturday.

Bess returned with a vengeance and
recorded the remaining seven of eight
motos he competed in en route to the 60cc
alional Championship.

Bonds in the 80cc 7-11 class. Bess

up the 80cc 7-11 National Championship
by posting overall wins on Sunday in the
Stock and Modified classes, where he
beat heavy favorite Bonds.
