Hall, Budd continue sidecar Motocross dominance By Greg Robertson PALMDALE,CA,jULY22 The Leading Links Sidecar Motocross. Club made a rare appearance at Los Angeles County Raceway to join the California Racing Clubs regulars for a night of racing under the lights, and Ed Hall and Brady Budd continued their recent dominance by running away from the field in both motos. Hall and Budd grabbed the first-moto holeshot ahead of the Ken Mclntyer/Les Ketcham and Scott Gregory/Glen L'Meureux rigs. Hall and Budd made roosting around the track on a 360-pound Honda CR500-powered sidecar look almost easy as they increased their lead with each lap to nab the win. The Gregory/L'Meureux team found their way around Mclntyer/Ketcham at the hallway point, but were overtaken for the runner-up fX>sition a lap later by Mike Bums and Bob Morgan, who h.ad charged up from a fifth place start. Round two saw the Maico-powered rig of Mclntyer/Ketcham jump out to an early lead over the teams of Bums/Morgan and Damon Doherty/Joeri Wong Unhing. Hall and Budd had climbed from fifth to join Mclntyer/Ketcham and Burns/Morgan in a great three-hack battle for the lead. At the midway point Hall/Budd jumped past BumsIMorgan down the back straight to move into second. A short time later Mcintyre/Ketcham waved Hall/Budd past and into the lead when they developed rear-brake problems. Once out front, Hall/Budd easily pulled away for their second win of the evening. "We hung back off the start to see exactly what we could do," said Hall. 'We could see Ketcham and Mclntyer were pulling ahead and we couldn't get by those guys in front of us," Budd added. '1rs not that wide out there. It was cool though, it was fun." The Burns/Morgan team came across the line in second for second overall. uWftd rather have .the win, but second is better than nothing," said Burns. "We're getting better though, getting closer and closer." Results P/W 8-2: I. Tylc:w" Pineda {Yam}; 2. Ihw ea..:Lut (Yam); 3. Scott Mrine' (Yarn). P/W 8-1: t. TanMr" Alexander OCJM); 2.

PALMDALE, CA, JULY 29 Yamaha-mounted Jeff Eide smoked the competition in the first 125cc Beginner moto, then came back from last place in moto two to finish second, claiming the overall honors in the class during California Racing Club's Saturday-night motocross at Los Angeles County Raceway. Joe Barker got things off to a good start in the opening moto with a holeshot, followed by Eide, Art Salazar and Sean Sorrenti. Halfway through the first lap, Barker put his front wheel over the top of a sandy berm and planted himself on the ground. Eide inherited the lead and started to pull away from a good battle between Salazar and Andrew Minchow for second. By the midway point, Eide had put 10 seconds on Salazar, who not only had Minchow showing him his front fender in every tum, but now had Barker to contend with as he made his way toward the front after his miscue. Barker was the fastest rider of the trio, and forged into the runner-up position with a couple of laps remaining. Eide took the first-moto win by a comfortable margin over Salazar who was banded sec- ond when Barker went down again on the final lap. Minchow brought his 125cc Husky across the line for third ahead of Barker and Sorrenti. Eide grabbed the early second-moto lead, but a disastrous first lap saw him come around in last place. By the second lap, the Yamaha rider had worked back up to fifth behind Sorrenti. A lap later, he found himself involved in a three-way battle for second with Minchow and Salazar. It took Eide a couple of laps to find a way around Salazar; he then doubled past Minchow on the final lap to grab second, where he would finish. Barker managed to stay upright and would eventually distance himself from the field to greet the checkers with 15 seconds to spare, thus securing the second-place trophy for his 4- r efforts.

After one restart, the 250cc Amateur race took off with Casey Burton in the lead. Within six laps Mark Witham had moved up from last position to second, but not content to be anything but first Witham passed Burton on the inside in turn three and stole the victory. Burton came in second, with David Key in third. Crystal Snyder grabbed the holeshot at the start of the Women's race, leading teammates Allison and Katie Harter. By the sixth lap, Snyder and the two Harters were side-by-side com· ing out of turn four, Allison Harter pulling in front just in time to snatch the victory.

JULY 25 Marty Vaughn dominated the 250cc Pro and 125cc Pro classes at the Mach I Kawasaki-sponsored Saline County Fair Arenacross. Vaughn pulled the holeshot in the first125cc Pro race and proceeded to build his lead and take the win. Ronnie Ford kept close behind early in the race, but slowly faded and crashed out. Devin Banks took control 0/ second position and held off a charging Tim Hawthorne. Ford took a convincing holeshot into the first turn of the second race, only to slide out as Vaughn took command and went on to win. In 250cc Pro action, Vaughn used the inside line to take the lead. Bank was in hot pursuit and managed to pull alongside of Vaughn, but never got the chance to pass him as Vaughn went on to take the win. In 80cc Senior action, 13-year-old Charlie Dagner dazzled fairgoers by flying over the triple jumps just like the pros do, but he was no match for the YZ of Jason Reich, who led both motos /rom start to finish.
