Burleson turned a 396 in the four-lap motocross, last special test on Sunday, but was 24 seconds off Jackie's pace Saturday. Though not a hard trial (again, many HEY DEALERS • •• •• •• ~ .!i2:.....

On Saturday, nearby Blue stony Mountain glowered underneath a shroud of storms and a chill rain swept the trial area repeatedly, turning the special terrain test's creek bed sections treacherous and slippery. It was here in the wet that Mike Hannon fell and took a disastrous 30 seconds waiting for a loaded-up motor to clear out. Drew Smith came through like a wild man ("He's going to die or set fast time," said one observer), bouncing sideways off the larger rocks and scattering stones like small-shot when ' his wheels touched the ground (which was seldom). Bill Uhl, more controlled. spotted the good line up the creek bed in a flash and was gassing, running nearly all the first day with broken rear brake springs, waitin~ for th-e rear end to lock up (it didn't).

At that, Jack was timing into checks as much as 20 minutes early and finished the day first overall by 17 seconds. . Day Two Sunday was not as wet, but colder.
