Got a new phone number to call for
Elsinore
GP
entries
and
info:
714/674-3189. Seems that because of
our report last week, the Lake Elsinore
Valley Chamber of Commerce was
diluged with phone calls. They have a
separate office set up to handle the

DON CASTRO has signed up wit h
Golden West Racing to race 1972's
National Circu it. Slated for Houston's
pa ir of Indoors is a 2S0cc Montesa for
the Short Track and a Triumph for the
TT. That ominous sponsor we spoke

Coca Cola by some other publications)
is still in the works, but nothing yet
official. It's a closely guarded secret
until the final lid is put on the can.

Imag ine, nine people on a Hodaka.
Some guys walked int o the offices the
other day with photograph ic proof that
they had nine people on a Hodaka. Only
one person, the lad at the controls, had
his feet on the ground. We believe it is
some kind of record. Anyone care to
challenge it ?
