whi le giving eno ug h re ets to a llow the Ba nd C
s
riders to ca tch their breath . A complete lack of
rain for thr ee weeks prior to the event left the
trail hard and d usty . To everyone's surprise, the
first bottlene ck deve loped at a m udhole in the
mi ddle of a clea r-cu t section . Ron Scharphom
was the quickes t through this sect ion, wi th the
res t o f the top-five race rs in tow . Only 26 seconds sepa ra ted the lead e r from brother Richard
Sc ha rp ho rn. w ith Rand t, Burleson and Luea
sandwiched in between.
The trail split at this point, with the A riders
getting to rid e a loo p o f even t trail. w hile the B
and C rid ers go t to play on some two-track trails
until the two tr..ils merged . Richard Scharphom
emerged as th e fas test on the A-loop emergency
check b ut. again, only 37 seco nds separated the
top five riders heading to the ned secti on. Ron
Scnarp hom blasted through to the gas stop as
the fastest and co uld ha ve been the leader at the
hal fway point. bu t he burred check four by o ne
m inute. Luea ma d e no mistakes a nd w as likewise tw o minutes la te to check seven, w ith
Richa rd Scharpho m, Burleso n and Randt hitting
the check d own by th ree m inu tes. Still , at this
point, it was anybody's race, with the top five all
wi th in one poi nt of each other.
H ead ing back into t he w o od s , Ro n
Scha rphom again did his best land-based-miss it e imitatio n, onl y to bu r n check six in the
p roc es s . Lu ca, again riding mista ke-f ree, h it
emergency chec k 10 only one seco nd off of Ron
Scharp hom 's time. No one else could make u p
a ny time on Luca he re and, with victory in sight,
he prom p tly wen t the fas test throug h th e last
secti on to sna g his seco nd wi n of the series an d
gr ab the po ints It!..d in the process.
