Winsett, Klopp clobber Experts at Trail-Way Short Track By Len Breech Photos by Ben Breech HANOVER, PA, JUNE 6 Todd Winsett and Mike Klopp each took a win and a close second on a very slick track as Trail-Way Speedway managed to get another short track event in after rain hit hard the day before. Winsett topped the 250cc A class on his Al Wenger Punk & Mom/Greiner IndustrieslWRTIEgore & Sons-sponsored Honda, and almost pulled off the 600cc A win, finishing a close second to Jim Haas. Klopp took the 750cc final on the same Triumph that Tom Majeski won a final with, and battled Rob Majeski for the first half of the Pro final before Majeski took command for the win. Todd Winsett jumped out to the 250cc A lead ahead of Ricky Winsett, Lew Woods and Randy Shank. Ricky bobbled slightly on the third lap, letting Woods into second. After getting one of his typical poor starts, Paul Lynch moved up to challenge Ricky for third, taking the position with two laps to go. Senior class rider Mark Burkholder took first at the start of the 600cc A final, with Jim HaaS, Merv Sensenig, Todd Winsett and Eddie Hidden close behind. Haas took the lead before the completion of the first lap, while Winsett took second on the third lap and started to pressure Haas. Sensenig threw a chain just past the halfway point. On the final lap, Winsett slipped under Haas as they came off the second tum, but Haas put his D B Porting Honda back in the lead before the third turn and held on for the win. Klopp took the point from Clarence Bull, Joe Gately and Earl Yearick in the 750cc A class. While Klopp and Bull battled closely up front, touching at least once, Paul Crumling took fourth from Yearick and challenged Gately for third in the late stages. After arriving for his heat half a lap down, Rob Majeski made sure he got to the line in time for the start of the 600cc Pro final, gating third behind Klopp and Eddie Hidden. After battling Hidden for three laps, Majeski finally got by and started to pressure Klopp for the lead, taking it at the end of the fourth lap. Dallas Baer got by Hidden for third on the seventh lap, but Hidden stayed close and finished just inches behind. The 55cc class had some very close racing normally reserved for the more experienced classes. Scott Morrison, Danny Guiseppe and Corey Hormes pulled away from the field as they battled for the lead. After two laps, Morrison and Hormes had put a little distance on Guiseppe. They stayed close to the flag, with Morrison again taking the win. In the late laps at slippery Trail-Way Short Track, 600cc A class winner Jim Haas (09A) led Todd Winsett (9), who finished a very close second. 250 B: I. Eddie Wharton (Vam); 2. Roy Miller (Cag); 5.

OH, JU E6 Andrews Cycles-backed Mike Kalin took on the field of 250cc Expert riders and went home the winner at Western Reserve's "Saturday ight Under the Lights" Supercross race. In the heat-race action, David Hand took the lead through tum one ahead of Barney Barnett, Vince Karnow and Katin_ Hand held the lead as the riders behind swapped positions, with Katin motoring into second and Karnow holding third. Phil Gauthier powered his way into fourth ahead of Barnett, as Katin went to work on Hand, passing into the lead to begin lap three. Hand remained in tow through the checkered flag, and Gauthier chased Kamow for four laps before sending him packing to fourth place. In the main event Hand held the lead through turn one, but slipped back to fourth within the first several turns. Katin inhertied the lead, chased by John Mavar and Gauthier. Hand quickly recovered from the miscue, and was back in second to begin lap two. Katin and Hand rode a tire-to-tire race for the final seven laps, as the two riders changed positions several times in their battle for the lead. Katin held less than a bike-length lead over Hand at the checkered flag. Ty Myers scored the 250cc B Class victory on his Andrews Kawasaki. Dave Bernard took the holeshot to begin the heat race, with Myers on his rear wheel. Myers jammed into the lead to begin lap two and never looked back, building a ten-second lead by moto's end. Bernard held second ahead of Bruce Steinfurth and Troy Howard. In the final, Steinfurth took the early lead, only to have Myers again take over the top SPORTS CAR COURSE LEXIVG7OIV, OHIO July 31-Aug. 2 1-800-MID-OHIO or (419) 884-4000 presented by Dunlop • 10% discount on orders received byJuly 24th • Special young adult rates (ages 13-21) • Children 12 and under are FREE • Call1-800-MID-OHIO for ticket, camping and race information, Monday-Friday, 8a.m.-5p.m. o Wiseco Superbike 100 0250 Grand Prix o 600cc and 750cc Supersports o Supertwins o Harley-Davidson Twin Sports o Endurance Challenge o Monsterbike Shootout o 2nd Annual Mid-Ohio Dealer '''SEeDI. ~ ~ Qh.oMotOfcyclt ..tlOl'l o.~,·An.oc: Ride; For information contact Joanne Grunenwald at 614/876-3331
