Hook snags Cambridge Short Track win By TIm McBride CAMBRIDGE, MN,JUNE6 Former CNC National Number 77, Peter Hook, came out o f semi -retirement, borrowed a basically stock SOOcc Yamaha and lined up against the heavy hit te rs in the Ope n Pro class. Hook then performed a tu torial called Dirt Track Racing 101 as he smoked th e class at the DTRA eve nt, held at the Isanti County Fairgrounds . Hoo k, wh o now is a de voted husband a nd fa ther a n d a successful businessma n, rarel y finds time to race against some of his Jongtime co m pe tito rs , let alo ne th e yo u ng g uns of the Open Pro class. As far as the compe tition is concerned, that m ight not be so bad, but for the race fans it was a rare trea t to see the form er cus hion master having some fun once again. Hook bolted in to the lead a t the star t of the 20-lap Pro mai n even t and never looked back. Wiscons in's Steve Kasten was the only rider able to keep him in sight and he raced to a lonely second after clawi ng his wa y there from fifth place on lap five . A close race fo r th ird eventually fell to Honda-mounted Verdeen Langla nd, w h o pa ssed Pro-Sport contender Marcus Bauer on lap six. Kurt Boehlke's bid for a repeat win afte r his victory at the last race was dashed when he cra shed in tum three. Reyn olds Prin ting's Eric Brouha rd pressu red Ba UL-I throughout the race and fmallv mad e his bid for fourth stand with a tu m- th""'; pass on lap 19. "We really pu t it to those Roraxes with this old Yamaha, di dn 't we?" joked Hook a fte r the race. · We took a tooth off after the heat becau se we knew the track wo uld get faster. I was able to roll it throu gh the co rne rs a lot easie r and keep my mo men tu m up , and it seemed to pull good e no ugh d own the s tra ights. I'd like to thank Lee Fealy for letting me ride his bike ." The triple-crown award fell to a hard-charging youngster named Troy johnson. Johnson raced to Victory in th e fina l w hile close ly c h ase d b y defending champ Shawn Burr, Wisconsin's Mark Zeidler, Chris Larson, and 60cc winner josh Koch. Johnso n d id it aga in in the 125cc class, ahead of 250cc winne r Bitsy Kantor. Adam Henrichs, Willie Broten and Tim Zeidler finished in the top five. Johnso n' s day of d ominan ce wasn't over yet. As th e Novice class got un d er wa y, it wa s Broten in control, bu t at the halfway point john son performed an out side pa ss in tum three to take the win and his th ird vict ory of the da y. Brot en held on to seco nd , ahead o f hea t-r ace winner Joe Schleicher .
