Lampe red hotat
Red Bud motocross
By Larry Witme r
BUCHANAN, MI, SErf. 13
Kevin La m pe took h is Thompson's Mo tor
Spo rts /Stoughton 's Cycle /Steve Kopetski-supported Honda to wins in' bo th the 125cc a nd
250cc Expe r t d iv is io n s. Lampe di d i t w ith
holesh ots in all fou r motes, fendi ng off a talent ed field of riders in both d ivisions.
Th e In d ia n a St a te Mo to cr o ss ev e nt was
atten ded by more tha n 700 rid er s, with quali fiers in the ~25cc B a nd C di visions along wi th
the 250cc C di vision . There we re ride rs from all
over the Mid west, makin g the competition and
the racing very close du e to the depth of talent
in all the classes. Again, Red Bud had the track
in excellent racin g shape. This kept Tim Ritchie
and his crew bu sy all day long.
Lam pe ripped the op enin g holes hot in the
250cc Expert di vision , with Da vid Gay lord on
his M,'ple City Cycle in second and Barry Anglemyer thi rd , w h ile Juhn Sier and Ja y Wagn er
made the right-hand corner in fourth a nd fifth.
Wag ner was on the m ove on the ope ning lap ,
cha lle ng ing Ga y lord for secon d , but Wagn er
went down in the sa nd swi tchbac ks, remounting
in seve nth. Gaylord was giving Lampe a run for
it d uring the secon d lap , taking ove r the lead in
th e Va lley Tr ip les. Wagner had mo ved back
through the pack to take over the third spot by
the completion of the third lap ,
Joh n Baker made a top-five showing afte r a
terribl e start. Baker ended up sixth by the moto's
end . Gay lord took the checkers for the first -moto
win, wit h Lam pe ho t on the Kawasa ki's rear
fender. Wagner brought it home for third , with
Rod Marshall in fou rth, experiencing some reed valve pro blem s.
The second mot o aga in saw Lam pe rip the
holesh ot, with Gay lord second , Mar shall th ird
and Sier fourth. Gaylord cha llenged Lampe for
the lead on the opening lap with an inside line
ove r the famous Double Doubl e Pipe Jump, but
the front end of Gay lord's KX wa she d out just
after tou ching down . It was a violent crash, and
Gay lord was shaken. This ga ve Lampe a cus h- •
ion, beca use the pack had to 'Scra mble to avo id
the downed Gaylord.
At the end of the first lap, the running orde r
was Lampe in first with a five-second lead over
Ma rshall in second , foll ow ed by Sier in third,
Baker in fourth and Wagner in fifth.
Wagner stu ffed Baker for fourt h on the second lap in a tight corn er. John Sier wa s ch allenging Ma rsha ll for second on the th ird lap ; then
th e Si er' s Kawa saki was se en ca rtw hce li ng
down the Monza wa ll downhill. Sier remounted
on hi s Fa ctor y Co n nec tio n / O ' Neall FMF I
Thomas Kawasaki, but he wa s off the pace and
tallied fifth.
.
Up front , Lampe cru ised in for the win and
the overall for the da y.

Most riders found the dusty, hot condit ions
to be a lmost too mu ch, but the first thing Jimmy
Cycle Sa les pspo nsor ed Larry Trent had to say
after the race wa s, "I love ·th is race!" It would
appea r so, as Trent's Hond a carved out close to
a five-m in u te lea d over seco nd ~p l ace finishe r
Jeff Solinger in the Four -Stroke class.
The S~1. rt of the mini class was a live-engine
start, with the rid ers p laci ng their clu tch ha nd
on top of their helm ets. Jason Hu ffman had the
fastest rea ction time a nd too k the holesh ot on
