ors. The event drew 192 riders, divided among 33 classes, racing on two tracks. In the showdown between Bell and Meyers in the 125cc (16-25) contest, Meyers could do no wrong, winning both motos over Bell. Meyers must have scared off all the competition in the 125cc and 250cc Intermediate classes, so he easily rode to those victories. Bell won the 125cc Novice class after first besting Dayton Benegas in moto one and then Josh Navarro in the second mota. Navarro (3-2) took second overall. BMXer-tumedmotocrosser Danny Hart (5-3) earned third overall. Bell took repeat wins again in the 250cc Novice race by keeping Neal De Garmo behind him in both outings. Randy Rush ran with the front-runners in both events to take third overall in a class of six. Joe Schryver and Tommy Duchars went back and forth in both 125cc (12-15) motos. Duchars proved quicker off the line in both races but had a persistent Schryver clinging to him like a cheap suit. Schryver took the lead on lap two of mota one, but Duchars came back on the following lap to reclaim the lead and take the eventual win. Duchars led Schryver around turn one again in moto two and held the spot for two laps before Schryver elbowed his way into the lead on lap three. For the next two laps, Duchars made repeated attempts to repass, but he had to settle for second. Schryver wasn't so lucky in the 125cc Novice class, finishing sixth overall. Eric Yorba rode his Cobra to victory in the both the 50cc (7-8) and Super Pee Wee events. Yorba had to work for those victories, as he lost the first Stock mota to Jackson Ryan. In moto two, Ryan couldn't get around Nathan MacGilfrey, but his 1-3 showing gave him second overall. In Super Pee Wee action, Carlos Don took mota one, over Yorba. Then Yorba came back to reverse those positions when it counted most for the overall. In both races, Don held off Garret Jackson, who finished third overall. Nicholas Bayerle rode his Kawasaki to victories in the 65cc (9-11) and Open classes. Adrian Fuller mastered the 85cc riders, taking repeat wins in both 85cc (7-16 land Supermini action. Brian Taylor continued his winning ways by taking repeat wins in both the 50cc (0-6) Stock and Modified classes. Clayton Cooke (3-2) had to settle for runner-up in the Stock class. Cooke was again in the action in the Modified class, finishing second to Taylor, but then couldn't match the pace set by Gage Farner for third overall. Larry Butler recently came out of a 20-year retirement to again race at Sarona Oaks. Butler took the Veteran Beginner Over 30 overall with repeat wins over Mike Sander. CN Kevin Galgerud (3-3) was third overall. Results 50 (0.8) F(T SHAFT: 1. Austin Anderson (KT,.,): 2. Dylan Gille· sple (Yam): 3. Cooper PrIbyl (Yam): 4. O.J. Reid (Hon). 50 (0·8) FIT: J.
