from a local hare and hound in the Southern
California desert, showing the spectacular
single start line that seemed to go on for
miles... Pierre Karsmakers won the Hialeah
National Motocross in Florida... Dewayne
Keeter was the latest winner at the Ascot
Short-Track... Jim Pomeroy finished sixth
overall in the 250cc MX GP in Switzerland...
We tested the 1973 Suzuki TM125 motocrosser
and said it was the "best competition buy of
the year."
