Sault, Homan go berserk at
Albany SX
By Clay Light
ALBANY, OR, APR. 2D
Kawasaki rider Rick Bault made his debut in the
Over 40 Pro class a successful one by going
berserk in both motos to come from behind and
win at the CMC-sanctioned round of the Albany
Supercioss Series.
Bault was the recipient of midpack starts in
both of the combined Over 40 Pro/Intermediateand junioHlass molos, but forged ahead of fellow KX pilot jerry Ebert to earn the win in his
class debut after turning 40 just days earlier.
Dault's performances were a wake-up call to
Dave Eakin, who has won several times this season and now has some stiff competition in Sault.
Bault used a 1-1 tally to cash in for first overall,
followed by Eakin (2-2), Ebert (4-3), Mike Perry
(3-4) and Dave Merklin (5-6) in fifth.
''I'm pretty stoked about winning both
motos;' said Bault, a former top local professionaJ in the late 70s and early '80s, "especially since
1 haven't raced fOr about a year and a half."
justin Homan has been long overdue for an
outdoor win after several impressive performances; unfortunately, crashes have kept the
Bend, Oregon, rider out of the winner's circle in
the 125cc Pro class. Yamaha riders Ryan Hagemann and Jason Matthews were the leaders in the
first combined 125cc/Open Pro motos, setting up
" great battle for the lead until Matthews broke
free from Hagemann t.o score a runaway win in
moto one. Hagemann, though, fell prey late in the
moto to an on-the-move H.oman, who took top
12Sec honors behind Open Pro Matthews, but
ahead of Hagemann and David Germain.
Moto two was much the same, as Hagemann
and YZ400F pilot Matthews led the opening-lap
parade. However, Hagemann quickly fell victim to
Homan's FMF/SMP /Cascade Motorsports-backed
RM. Hagemann did all he could to stop Homan's
onslaugh~ but Homan carved past the local speedster to take top honors in the moto, ahead of Hagemann, a tiring Matthews and Gennain.
The 125cc Intermediate class saw C~ry Fuller
fending off moto:.one winner Shane St. John to
take the overall win via his 2!.l performances. St.
John (1-2) netted second overall, ahead of Matt
Williams (3-3).
Yamaha rider Terry Hamness took a win in
the Up The Hill class with his 1-1 performances,
beating K.,wasaki rider Cary Terlecki, who, with
his 2-2 tallies, netted second overall, ahead of
Ryan Leach. Leach came from well behind in
both motos to chase Terlecki to the finish.
