heat up when Huffman caught Young. Huffman banged into the rear of Young over a jump, causing both riders to get a little out of shape. Young wasn't able to hold off Huffman, who sped past into the lead. Huffman captured the moto win and the undis puted overall victory, followed by Young, Decker and Canoy. Young got the jump on the field in the first 250cc Pro moto, but was passed in the next turn by Nelson. Decker was seventh and Huffman was third from last. The end of the first lap saw Nelson leading. Decker was already up to fifth spot and biting at the heels of the front runners, while Huffman had moved up to sixth. Wholesale changes in position took place every few turns for the first few laps and the racing was great. Young took over the lead from Nelson, and Decker and Huffman freight-trained their way past Hamilton. Moments later, Amaradio also passed Hamilton. Wooten was able to hold Decker back for half a lap before Decker out- accelerated him coming out of a tight turn. Wooten had no luck holding back Huffman, who made a great pass in a jump section. On lap four, Huffman joined the battle over second place, and secured the position by passing Decker and Nelson in the same turn. Young put up a valiant effort for the next two laps to try to keep Huffman from passing, but Huffman easily motored past. The next-to-last lap saw Decker get by Young as well. In the final 250cc Pro moto of the weekend, Nelson got the holeshot with Young in second. Huffman got an uncharacteristic good start and was sitting in third position. In less than a lap, Huffman took over the lead and pulled away. Huffman never looked back, and scored another win, while Young ran a strong race and finished in second place. Amaradio finished third. Huffman netted the overall with his 1-1 finishes, while Young's strong 3- 2 tally earned him second overall. Third overall on the day went to Amaradio with his 4-3 score. Monte Montague dominated the 60cc (9-11) class throughout the series, and continued his success by winning every moto in the final two rounds. Montague went wire-to-wire in each moto to earn a pair of overall wins ahead of Randy Norman, whose con sistent third-place finishes in each moto earned him second overall on each day. Third overall on day one went to Bryan Jaramillo. The Old Timer Master class was also dominated by one rider. Jon Miller won every moto he competed in, and couldn't be touched by any of his competition. Another strong and consistent showing was demonstrated by Gary Doggett, who easily gathered enough series points to earn second overall. Consistency also paid off for Terry Judd, who finished the series in third. cn Results SATURDAY P/W STK BEG: 1. William Hammer (Pax); 2. Vincent Blair (Yam); 3. Robby Lawrence (Yam); 4.
