Ray Perkins of Lou isiana won the EZ Up g iven away by Kawasaki Sportscenter of Little Rock. Harry McMahan of North Li tt l e Ro ck too k h is Kawasaki to th e ho leshot i n the first 125cc Expert m oto , but , b y the t ime the pack rea ched the first whoop section , Shreveport, Lou is iana 's Jason Hyde had m oved p a st M cMahan on h is Yamaha Sportscenter/D irtBik eM ike sponsored Yamaha . Hyde and McMa han began to stretch out a lead over the other riders and remained onetwo all the way to the fin ish . Further back , Missouri rider Eugene Spruetels and Louisiana's Ron Wi pf were wag ing th eir own battle. Sp ruetels was able to hold off W ipf for the third place money. McMahan shot out of the gate in the second moto with anoth er holeshot, but he couldn 't hold back a charging Hyde. As they reached the triple on the back side of the track, McMahan bobbled slightly and Hyde pounced on the opportunity, as M cMahan could onl y doubl e . Wipf sta yed with the l ead er s for t he firs t l ap, but he couldn't ma inta in the ir pa c e. He let Spruetels go by , and th e eight-lap race bec am e a Hyde/McMa han show , as they put plent y of d ista nce on the rest of the fiel d an d finished o ne -two. In th e 12 5cc Int erm ed i ate ra c e , E x p ress B oa t s - sp on sored Andr ew Cann on t o o k th e hole shot in moto on e and never looked bac k . Missouri rider T roy Lester c ouldn 't match Can non 's sp eed and had his hands full with Kentucky rider J on Witherspoon . Meanwhile, Robbie Keel , Greg Crane and Brian Brewer were battl ing over fourth place in a tight race . With the Intermediates on a second gate after the Experts, they were ab le to test their stamina , as they were runn ing eight laps on a two -minute track. Crane showed some endurance as he pushed past Keel on lap five. Brewer began to drop back and couldn't hold the pace. Cannon won, with Lester a steady second, and Witherspoon nailed down third . The second moto began like the first - with a Cannon holeshot. How ever, Cannon went down in the first whoop section and Lester took the lead and , for the second week in a row, Canno n was in last place. Witherspoon was in second , and Crane was ho ld ing o f f Brew er and Keel. Cannon got going again and was on the gas . K ee l put so m e moves on Brewer and moved into fourth. On the next lap, Cannon moved right up on Keel and Brewer and passed both of them on th e tr iple. On the next lap, Lester was still ou t front, Witherspoon w a s se cond , Cran e was third and Cannon was char gi ng. Crane left the do or open in a tight corner and Cannon w ent b y f or t hi r d and set his sights on Witherspoon . As they came by the tower , Cannon held it o n and sailed by Witherspoon for second. It looked like a replay of the Smithv ille round, when Lester he ld Cannon off at the fin ish for th e win, but Ca nnon wasn't having an y of it. Lap six was nothing but Cannon ; he railed by Lester and started pulling away for the win , leaving Leste r second and Witherspoon third.
