Canadians Sweep Round One Thriller By THE DUKE SHANl'IONVILlE, ONTARIO, CANADA, MAY 19 R ound one of the Diablo Paintball Can-Am 125cc GP Challenge got off to a spectacular start under cold but clear skies in Shannonville as three riders battled to the flag. The 2001 Series champ, Mitch Baghdoian, was unable to start, as he lost his motor in Friday's practice and could not continue for the weekend. Jeff Chen grabbed the holeshot from his front-row 5tarting spot and went for the check-out move straight away through corner one. By the end of lap one, Chen had 15 bike lengths on second-placed Corey Sherman, with Dave Wright and Stuart Nodell right behind Sherman. On lap two, a5 Chen came into Shannonville's signature corner, "Allen's" (named after Canadian Superbike legend and current Dunlop Tire guru Jim Allen), Chen made a mistake, going in too deep and running off into the muddy infield. Chen kept the bike upright and rejoined the race in eighth. Chen battled with Dave Thompson and Honda Canada's Chris Peris down the back straight. Thompson went in too deep for the right-hander off the straight as he tried to draft and pass Peris, and ran off; Peris, with nowhere to go, had to check up to avoid hitting Thompson, and when he did that, Chen touched Peris and low-sided. Chen hit a rut in the soft infield and went cartwheeling. Chen got up right away, unhurt, but 80 JUNE 19, 2002' cue I _ his bike wa5 totaled and the frame was split in two. Up front, Sherman was trying to check out from Nodell and Wright. At the halfway flags, Sherman had 20 bike lengths on second and third place. Nodell and Wright worked together, though, to close the gap, and two laps later they were right up with Sherman again. The lead trio were nose to tail coming down the back straight on lap nine, rapidly closing on lapped traffic. The lead three riders closed up on two backmarkers having their own battle for positions right as they approached Allen's. In a corner where two bikes fit, they went five wide into the corner. Stuart Nodell had the be5t line through the corner and took the point. Nodell led Wright from Sherman for two laps. Nodell and Wright were able to put a small gap on Sherman as they battled for the next two laps. On the white-flag lap, Wright made it around Nodell in turn four and had to work hard to hold off Nodell down the back straight. Nodell tried to throw a "Hai) Mary" up in Allen's, but Wright would have none of it. As they came around the last corner and made the sprint to the checkers, it was Wright over Nodell by two bike lengths, with Sherman just behind to take the final podium spot and make it an allCanadian podium. Two seconds back from the lead trio, Mark Gonyou held off Jim Struke and Honda Canada's Chris Peris after n __ s In a show of support for their fellow 125cc racer, a collection wa5 started by Dave Knapp, father of 14-year-old young gun Taylor Knapp, for Jeff Chen.
