ish, placing Lindsey on the ground as Wollaston
took the checkered.
Johnson led Sandell out of the start area in
their match. As Johnson took the high side of a
berm, Sandell shot across the track and squared
off, forcing Johnson to back off enough for
Sandell to gain the lead, which he held.
The next heat pitted Morgan against Atkins,
who took the holeshot. Again the whoop
would come into playas both riders gave it their
all. Morgan looked to be the winner when
Atkins drove to the right, hitting Morgan and
placing him 00 the ground inches away from the
finish.
Three riders remained for the third heat and
Atkins drew the bye. Wollaston grabbed the
holeshot ahead of Sandell. Over the pitside doubles, they headed for the sweeping right turn
where Sandell took advantage of the inside line
and was off in first. Wollaston tucked tight into
the comer after the triples and passed Sandell,
who regained the lead as they flew over the
small doubles and into the sand pit.
Wollaston tried another pass with an
extremely tight right-hand tum and lost an
argument with a hay bale as Sandell moved onto
a chance at the $3,000 payout.
Atkins led early in the final with Sandell
close on his heels. As Sandell swung wide to
lingshot himself out of the comer after the pitside doubles, Atkins, with too mu.ch drive on the
inside, lost control and went down hard. By the
time he had recovered, Sandell was well on his
way to the win.

Jessup jumps ahead at
Florida Supercross
By Neal R. Thomas
MILTON, FL, SEPT. 21
Jeff Jessup stole the show in the final round of
the West Florida MX Park's Summer Supercross
Series. His come-from-behind second in the heat
race and first in the Vet C main event won the
battle for the night, but more importantly, it
vaulted him from third to first in the series
points standings.
The Vet C series was hotly contested with no
q'lo(e then six points' separating first through
Hurd positions.
R&R Racing's Dana Barberi took the heatrace holeshot, followed by Jessup, FWB's Gill
McLane and GPE's Jason Gentry. Series points
leader McLane quickly zapped Jessup and on
lap three moved to Barberi's rear fender, then
sailed by on the infield tabletop triple. However,
McLane had a small tip-over that allowed most
of}he pack by and set up the finishing order of
Billy Whitley topped the 125 and 250cc
Expert classes at Cedar Hill Motocross
Park in Magnolia, Arkansas.
Barberi, Jessup, Roy Dean. Gentry and Mclane.
As the Vet C main event started, Barberi
again took the holeshot, followed by McLane,
Jessup and Gentry. The first lap saw Dean pass
Gentry and Jessup to take third. McLane flew
past Barberi on a large step-up to take the lead.
Oean aimost immediately jumped by Barberi on
a large double, and Dean and Barberi traded
places several times.
Jessup made an inside move on Dean in the
tum after the whoops. On the third lap, Dean
jumped past Jessup on a large step-up only to
have Jessup jam underneath him a few turns
later to take charge of third.
As the race wore on, fatigue seemed to play
a part. First, Dean went down in a slow turn,
giving Gentry the break he needed to begin a
charge on Jessup. On lap four, McLane nosedived into the face of a jump. He went down
hard and got up very slowly. Barberi moved
into first with Jessup on his rear fender. Jessup
dug deep and charged into the lead using an
inside Line.
Jessup pulled away to the checkers, taking
the main-event win and the series championship. Barberi followed, with Gentry, Dean and
McLane rounding out the top five for the night.

Mathews makes it a double at
Roebling Vintage Road Race
By Van Funchess
FAULKVILLE. GA. SEPT. 28
Mike Mathews took the Vinlage Two and Vintage One wins at the WERA Vintage races held
at Roebling Road Raceway.
Rixon Breckon took runner-up honors in the
Vintage One race. He and Mathews both rode
Honda CB3S0s. The WERA Vintage One class
now has two divisions, including one fOT 1966
and earlier machines made obsolete by the domination of the CB350. Royce Eaton on a Ducati
350 was the victor here while placing fourth
overall within the Vintage One dass.
Mathews edged out Tim Joyce at the finish
line in the Vintage Two class for his second win
of the day. This ballie went down to the wire as
both men traded the lead throughout the race.
Mathews' Honda 450 held the speed advantage
over Joyce's Triumph 500, which was very
aggressive in the back sections of the track.
Mathews led the first two laps until Joyce
passed him on the outside of tum two during
the third lap. Mathews overtook Joyce near the
end of the front straightaway, but after the finish
line. This was the formula for the best race of the
day. If Joyce could pass in the back section it
appeared that he possessed enough motor to
hold Mathews off.
The lead changed time and again with Mathews able to reel Joyce in on the long front
straight. The last lap found Mathews leading
Joyce with both men D}oving up to encounter
lapped traffic. Joyce passed Mathews and a
lapped rider, underbraking going in to turn
three. The expected did not occur as Mathews
edged out Joyce by one bike length for the victory.
"I had to run a little harder than I wanted
to," Mathews sa,id afterward. "'Joyce made me
work for it"

Whitley wows Cedar Hill MX

MAGNOLIA, AR, SEPT. 1
Billy Whitley won the 125 and 250cc Expert
dases at the Summer's End Blowout at Cedar
Hill Motocross Park, taking home the biggest
portion of the $2,000 purse. .
Moto one of the 125cc Expert class began
with Michael Peacock out front, followed by
Whidey, Trey Owens and Brook Fluker. Andy
Bowyer tangled with a few other riders in the
first tum and found himself dead last. Peacock
tried to hold off Whitley, but Whitley scooted
past through the whoop section.
Near the end of the fourth lap, WhWey came
up short over a lillie step-down jump and fell.
Owens cleared the jump but landed right on
Whitley and his bike. Whitll:)' was unable to
continue, but Owens managed to stay on top of
his KX and kept the lead. Owens took the win,
followed by Peacock, Clay Hoenshell, Bowyer
and Fluker.
Whidey grabbed fhe moto-two holeshot and
never looked back. Owens tried to keep his )()(
dose while Fluker, Peacock and Hoenshell battled for position. Bowyer again went down early
and had to spend the entire moto working
through the pack. Fluker, Peacock, Hoenshell
and Ray Mitchell freight-trained tum after tum
as Bowyer passed from 13th up to sixth.
Hoenshell got by Peacock then tried to get
by Fluker on the outside, but Fluker shut the
door and pulled away slightly through the
whoops only to have Hoenshell pull alongside
on the straightaways. Hoenshell flew by Fluker
the next lap over the double-double section.
Bowyer passed Fluker over the table top, dropping him to fifth. While Whitley pulled away
from Owens, Bowyer tried to catch the leaders,
passing Mitchell at the halfway flags.
Mitchell then lost his entire seat, causing him
to pull off the track.. Whitley took the win;
Owens held off Bowyer's last-lap push to finish
second. Bowyer was third. Hoenshell fourth and
Fluker rO'unded out the top five.
Whidey was unstoppable in the 250cc class,
taking both wins easily. Whitley wowed the
crowd when he tripled the huge infield jump as
did fellow Team Green riders Bowyer and
Owens.
