seco nd . Carpenter took the easy win that saw
him open up a 12'"St'COnd lead by the fourth lap.
In thf' 250 cc /Opf'n Expf"rt class, Rob bie
Wood proved he wa s the holes hot maste r by
pulli ng the ho leshot in bot h mot os. In the firs t
mot o, Bob Eichlin took first plac from Wood on
e
the opening lap. Th en Mike Spear pa ssed Wood
and Eichlin for the lead. Ca rpe nter came up and
pas sed Wood and then Eichlin on the sec ond
lap , and star ted to cat ch Sp ea r. Ca r penter followed a nd pa ssed Spea r on th e outside to tak e
first on the fourth lap and had a six-seco nd lead
by the ne xt lap. Carpenter took th e w in ; followed by Spear. Meanwhile, Matthew Bond had
w orked in to fourt h pla ce a nd was putting pres'lure on Eichlin. Bond pa ssed Eichlin on the last

Maxwell At the start of the third lap , Carpenter
was wa y out front and looked to have his third
mo tu uf the day in the bag with a 12~nd lead
as Bond pa ssed Spea r to ta ke seco nd . Sp ear
hung tight a nd shadowed Bond in th ied as they
fought for secon d pla ce. On th e fifth lap, Ca rpenter fell hard into the double jum p tha t followed the roadwa y tabletop and. lost his JX'Ki ~

contin ue, but be col lected himself be fore los ln g
too many posi ti on s. Bond inheri ted firs t, followed by Spea r, and they finished first and secon d overa ll.
Thunder, lightning and showers delayed the
