Schnells fast at Perris MX
By Tony Alessi
PERRIS, CA. JULY 22
The Schnell brother.;, Greg and Eric, teamed up
and dominated the racing action in both the Pro
and Intermediate classes during round three of
the GR Win a Truck night series held at Perris
Raceway.
Greg Schnell is making quite a name for
himself as was evident by his aggressive riding
during both 125cc Pro races.
Schnell battled with Spud Walters for the
better part of the two races, but Schnell's main
opposition was nol Walter.; - or any of the other
Pros, for that matter. Instead, it was the Intermediate riders who started on the second gate.
Schnell had to deal with these backmarkers in
each moto and lapped nearly half of them en
route to his decisive victories.
Greg's younger brother, Eric, handled the
Intermediate ranks by posting an awesome fourmolo sweep of both 125 and 250cc Intermediate
classes. Schnell's speed was unequa,led as he
topped Gabe Bolivar and Jiri Dostal in the 125cc
class and Jerry Aleman and Dave Faerier in the
Jim Sisemore (lett) dices with Bob
Hicks (right) at Fast Fridays' Auburn
Speedway. Sisemore collectad both the
Handicap and SCratch rnaln..vent wins
on July 21.

Sisemore doubles up at
Auburn Speedway
By Gen Moore
AUBURN, CA, JULY 21
Jim Sisemore scored victories in both the Handicap and Scratch main events at the Gold Country Fairgrounds.
Chad Felicio, the only rider not starting from
the 5(}-yard line, led the Handicap main event
until the white-flag lap. Bart Bast, Louis Kossuth, Jim Sisemore, Bob Hicks and Bob Hedden
all came off the 50 like a pack of hungry lions in
search of prey. Sisemore and Hedden rode side
by side for most of the race and were soon at the
front of the pack chasing the leader. Bast and
Hicks held down the fourth and fifth spots,
respectively.
Down the back straight on the last lap, Sisemore used the inside line and powered past felicia to steal the win, but Hedden had to wait
until the last comer to get by after Felicio made
a slight bobble and dropped to third.
Bast, Sisemore, Hicks and Hedden would go
at it again when they lined up for the Scratch
main. The race was almost a rematch of the
Handicap main as Hedden, Sisemore and Bast
went three abreast into the first corner, with
Hicks bringing up the rear. Hedden got a great
drive, came out in first place and continued to
lead for two more laps. But as the rider.; crossed
the line in a bunch on lap three, Hedden suddenly held up his hand to signal that his motor
had quit. Sisemore took over and led the rest of
the way while Hicks passed Bast for second. £N
