BRIEFLY• •• The race was nasty enough, but the most hair-raising part was watching the box va n s slalom into position in the Pro pits on Sunday morning. A steady rain all night had soaked everyt hing totally, and the Pro riders had to ease their rigs down a slight hill that crossed a part of the co urse that had been c hurne d up by th e ATV s the day bef or e. Aft er Dale Stegal, Randy Hawkins' mechanic, slithered down with all four wheels locked up, the Racer Productions crew hooked a cable t o one of the bulldozers and helped tug-boat the rigs into position. " It' s totally insane," said Edmondson, who decided to forego the pleasures of Pit Row to park on a gravel lot behind the sign-up trailer. They say position is everyt hing. Saturday afte rnoon saw the Youth r iders line up for an hour and a half of competition on a shortened course . Charles Mullins, of Fairfield, Ohio , was the overall winner on a Honda for that race , also winning the Mini Interm ediate class , O ther class winners inclu de A llen Nutter J r.. of Lancast er, Ohi o , w inning the M ini Jun ior class o n a Yama ha. and Dustin Sole of Parkersburg.
