Moates dusts REM
Glen Helen Motocross
By Ro cky Hash
SAN BERNARDINO, CA. OCT. 25
Intend ing to use the race as a tuneup for the
White Brothers Vet World Championships,
Marty Moates came -out to Racing Enterprises
Motosports' weekly Saturday Motocross at Glen
Helen Raceway Park, where he posted two convincing moto wins en route to his overall victory
in the Over 40 Ma sters cla ss.
•
Wh en the first moto got under wa y, it wa s
Moates gra bbing the holes hot o n his po te n t
YZ400F thu mper. Rich Elerst edt managed to
sneak his YZl25 int o the second spot, whi le
Kawasaki pi lot Marc Crosby held down th ird .
Th e fourth positio n was occu pied b y Geo rge
Koh ler, a nd Wh ite Brot hers' Tom Wh ite filled
ou t the top five . Over the next few laps, Moates
a nd Eiers ted t began to sepa rate the mselves from
the rest of the pack as the tw o former nationa l
heroe s went at it tooth and nail for the moto
win. Crosby, meanwhile, sa t co m fo r ta b ly in
third, while Koh ler still held fou rth. Yamaha
rider Willi e Ama radio moved up to take o ver
the fifth spo t.
.
As the mota wore on , Elerstedt was unable
to cut into Moates' advantage, as the hilly, natural-terrain course seemed to favor Moates' big
Yamaha four-stroke. Back in th e pa ck , Crosby
stepped o ff his mach ine jus t after the halfway
point and tu rned the third slot over to Kohler.
Ama radio too k over the fou rt h positio n, wh ile
White rec laimed fifth. When the checkers came
out at the end of mot a o ne, it was Moat es w ho
was first to the line, so me three seco nds in fron t
of Eierstedt, w ho finished second . Hon da rider
Kohler fin ished up in third.
At the start of mota two, it was again Moa tes
snagging th e h o le shot. Yamaha rid e r Jim
Domann, w ho was involved in a first-tu m pil eup in the finot moto, occupied the seco nd position. Honda rider Kohler wa s in th ird, w hil e
Ama radio put his Yamaha thumper in fourth.
Eiers tedt carne around to co m p lete lap one in
the fifth s p o t a ft e r gating po orly. Out front,
Moates maintained his five--bike--Ie
ngth lead on
Domann in second. In this moto, Moates seemed
unab le to get away from Domann, as the tv:o
rid ers w e re e q u a ll y m a tch e d on id en t ica l
thumpers.
Mea n wh ile, Eiers tedt was th e man on the
move. The Yama ha ride r appeared to be trying
to ride the whe'els off of his "little" 125, and by
th e time the two-la p signa l was given, he had
moved up to occupy the th ird spot.
Over the ne xt two la p s, Moa tes remained
s teady a nd - a s in the first moto - when th e
checkered flag carne out, he was the first to see
it . Domann finished up a close seco nd , while
Eierstedt rounded ou t the top three. On the day,
it was Moates taking the overall Y by virtue of
,:in
his perfect 1-1 moto finishes. Eiers tedt was next
best, as his 2-3 sco res ea rned him seco nd overall.
Domann, with h is strong ri d e in the second
mo to, finis hed up in third af ter posting 6-2 finishes on the day.

Garnes garners
Tablerock SXwins
By Chris Norman
MORGANTON, NC, NOV. 1
Joe y Ga rnes ca me fro m be h ind to wi n both
mo te s in the Su pe rmini class a t Ta bleroc k SX.
Garnes also too k bo th mot o wi ns in the Senior
Mini class to make a clean sweep of the two
classes in w hich he was entered.
In the Supermini contest, Games started the
first moto in seco nd , behind jona tha n Ryan , but
he soo n pressured Ryan int o making a mistake:
Ryan lost the front wheel in a turn and dropped
his bik e, a llov..-ing Games to pass and go on to
.
take the win, followed by Ryan in second.
In the second moto, Ryan again had the lead
o ut of the first turn, followed by Allan Norman,
with Carnes in third. Carnes made quick work of
Norman and set ou t aft er Ryan . Garnes quickly
ree led in Rya n to take the win and the ov erall ,
followed by Ryan in second and Nonna n in third.
In the fir s t mo to of th e Senio r Mini class,
Clyde Roberts got the hol esho t an d led Ga rnes
and Scott No rman for two la ps before crashing .
Roberts' mis ha p gave Garnes the lead , an d he
never looked back · he took the win, wit h Norman in second and Roberts in thi rd .
In the second moto, Games gra bbed the lead
at the start and wa s never challenged as he went
o n to win the moto and take th e o ve ra ll, fo llowed by Roberts, who got second o ve ra ll.
Roberts came ba ck in the 80cc D cla ss to w in
both motos and take the overall.
C rashes played a big pa rt in the outcome of
the 60cc (7-9) class. In the first moto, Christopher
Newton too k the early lead until he cased a double jum p a nd cras hed hard . Jordan Daniels and
Jos h T rive tte pa ssed New ton whil e he was
down. Newton was able to get back in the race,
but he was a la p down by th is time. Danie ls took
the win, wi th Trivette in seco nd and N ewton
pu lling down third.
In the seco nd moto, Newton aga in took the
early lead , followed by Daniels a nd Trivettt.>.
Dan iels slowly s t..lr~ed to gain ground on N ew·
ton, and by the midpoint of the race Daniels was
right on Newton's rear wht.'el, looking to make a

In 250cc B action, Shu ll grabbed the hol eshot

th ou gh he did have com pany in both mo tos . VZmounted Tommy Laym an, Bry an t Torres a nd

in the 250cc N o vic e class a t round o ne of th e
1998 AMP /GFI Octoberfest Go ld C u p Ser ies,
prese nted by Parts Unli mited an d Yamaha of
Modesto.
The Yamaha of Modes to / Oury Gri ps / Ha p
Jones-backed Loredo utilized a 2-1 mo to score to
get the early jump in the five--race se ries tha t wi ll
re w ard the to p riders in eac h division with
beautiful Gold C u p tro phies .
'
Rich Eierstedt used a Yam aha YZ125 t o
run sec ond o verall to former U.S. GP
w inner Marty Moates at t he REM Gle n
Helen MX.
With a th rea t of rai n tha t fortuna tely never
materia lized , nearl y 200 rid er s ma de it o u t to
take on the tec hn ical Oatfield Racew a y . Th e
AMP crew, in an effort to kee p th e rid ers
intrigued, ma de a few changes to the track, the
mu st no table change being a tricky litt le "m ini
s tep- u p" jump. That, along with improved jump
ra m ps that gave riders a little more hang time,
made for a great da y of racing.
Moto one s ta r te d off with Bill y [urevich.
g ra bbin g the hol es hot , with Sea n Drapinski,
Craig Humphrey, Loredo and Jim m ie Pierce in
tow. [urevich, who rece ntly made the swi tch to a
KTM, got pressur e from Hum p hrey ea rly on. A
sligh t bobb le fro m Jurevich while coming o u t of
a tig ht left- ha nder nea rly gave Humphre y the
oppo r tu n ity he needed , but [urev ich q u ick ly
reboun ded to keep the lead. By lap two, it had
beco me a four-way ba ttl e, wit h Hu mp h rey ,
Loredo and Pierce right on [u re vich' s rear fender. However, on the third lap , Lor ed o made a
pas s on Humphrey on the do wnhill double section to tak e ov er seco nd . At that point, [urevich
had developed a little cushion, and Hum p hrey,
now in third, appeared to be a little spent.
Meanwhile, Lored o tried his best to red in
the s pee d y [urevi ch, while Pierce, ba ck in
fourth, soon got pressure from Suzuki-mounted
Ju stin Sp rug a sci, who had mad e hi s wa y
through th e pack aft er a bad s ta rt . Sprugasci 's
perseverance paid off as he za p ped Pierce on the
w hite- flag lap to St.'CUrc fourth. As the checkered
flag waved, Jur evich ma nagt.'d his bike
at the end of the whoop section and got hit from
behind . Hu mphrey managed to keep upright
but Ju revich wasn't as luckv.
Meanwhil e, Lo n~d o had cl ea r sa ili ng up
front while Hu mph rey, back in second, tried to
in ch his wa y up to challenge.
A battle.for third between Spr u ga sci and
Pierce soon became a thn.>t.....w ay ba ttlc as a rejuve na ted Ju rev ich mad e h is wa y u p. However,
time ran out a nd the checkered flag came o ut,
waving in Lored o for a we ll-deserved wi n and
the overall for the day. Hu mphrey took a secu re
seco nd , w hile Sprugasci barel y held off Pierce at
the finish-line jump for th ird . Ju revich was a bike
length behi nd Pierce aod had to sellie for fifth .
