CA, MAY 23 John Aden and Jesse Finch were the sta rs at Costa Mesa Speedway, winning the Scratch and Handicap mains, respectively. Aden transferred directly to the Scratch main and drew the number-two starting position. Andy Northrup, who has been running strong lately , captured the pole. In th ree was ve ter an Steve Luce ro and next to him, the mas ter of the gate, Bobby Schwartz. who made the main by way of the last chance qualifier . On the outside was Brad Oxley , still nursing torn ligaments in his kn ee. They all go t a great sta rt but it wa s Aden who mad e it to the comer firs t. Schw artz was right behind him, but on the second lap he wen t to the outside line he rides so successfully. It d idn't work this time and Northrup, Oxley and Lucero all got unde rneath. On the next lap it was Northrup who made the mistake, and this time Oxley and Lucero slipped into the second and third spots. Jesse Finch has bee n knocki ng on the door for a long time and Friday in the Handicap main it all came togethe r for him as he went wire-tow ire. Thi ngs were a lot b usie r behind h im as Gary Ackroy d was pu t in the position of holding off the field. Putting pressure on Ackroyd were Shawn McConnell and Lucero. This fearsome duo fma lly found the chink in the armor and on the fifth lap they forced him high and took over seco nd and third. FInCh was not as easily in ti midated and as the remaining laps wound down he continu ed to ride his race and led the way to the checkered followed by McConnell , Lucero, Oxley and Ackroy d.
