Procida By Scott Hoffman MORENO VALLEY, CA, NOV. 29 Todd Baldwin made.a victoriou comeback ride after a two-year layoff, scoring the win in the Vet ovice class at Starwest Supercross Park. When the gate fell for moLO one Rudy Chavez led the pack through the first turn. Hot on his heels Baldwin, Bill Melanson and am Ramirez were dicing for second place. As the riders sorted themselves out, Ramirez was on the gas and jumped past Melanson and 10 ed on Baldwin. Using an outside line in the whoops, Ramirez powered his YZ250 into econd place behind Chavez. The battle for fourth place had heated up as Melanson and Quent McCoy were dicin& back and forth before McCoy finally slipped by, but Melanson was fired up and stayed stuck to McCoy. Chavez was still out front, but that lead was dwindling quickly as Ramirez was on the gas. The Yamaha rider was only a few bike lengths back when Chavez took the white flag. Ramirez turned up the wick a bit more, but this proved to be his undoing as he went into a corner too hot and almost went down. He re overed, but lost valuable ground that he would not be able to make up before Chavez crossed the checkered. As the rider regrouped for the start of moLO two, Baldwin sat on the line envisioning the hole hol. This worked for the RM125 rider, who held his own against the bigger bikes and dove to the inside line, edging out Chavez for the lead. Baldwin led the pack through the esses, with Chavez, Dan McClintock and Jim Lacy pushing and shoving for position. The first casualty was Lacy who stalled his Honda in the whoop section. . After suffering from a bad start, Ramirez was on the gas and moving up through the pack, picking off riders at every opportunity. First he passed Lacy, then Melanson and McCoy. This moved Ramirez into third place behind Baldwin and Chavez. Ramirez closed on Chavez and for the next two laps pressured the Honda rider. It finally paid off as Ramirez made his move in the whoop section and nabbed second place. A the white flag came out for Baldwin, th re was a four·second gap back LO Ramirez, who was not alone in second. Ramirez was intent on catchin~ Baldwin, but Baldwin held his lead for the Win and the overall.
