Lady Luck again shined
at Wheel to Wheel Raceway in Victorville Ca. for the Southern California
Flat Track Associations seventh consecutive winter race with beautiful
weather. KTM mounted Ryan Surratt again lead the large 50cc class
from flag to flag. Andre Och ran a competitive second also on an orange
machine. Kawasaki rider Dustin Phares won the 65cc Youth Race and gave
Amanda Bryan, 85cc Amateur winner, a very good run in the bigger bore event.
Amanda rides a very traditional early 80ccYamaha flat tracker. Devin Booher
got a great jump on Andy Wood in the 85 Expert class, but a major bobble
by Booher allowed Wood the trophy. Dustin Phares and Amanda Bryan meet
again with their Hondas in the XR race with Phares notching his second
win of the day.
Todd Vaughn grabbed the lead
in the 125/250 Novice race, but Art Guilfoil made a late race pass for
the win. Jimmy Wood hole shotted the 250 Expert class and had big help
from other riders in the field. Cousin Alex Wood dropped his Honda on the
3rd lap and Justin Filice did likewise on the 6th. Craig Johnson followed
Woods home for second. The track was getting dry slick and the elder Wood
was able to adapt more readily then the other riders. Amateur 250 rider,
Devin Booher again lead Andy Wood from the green light and was able to
keep it up this time and checkered over the youngest Wood.
SCFTA stalwart and Yamaha
TT rider Joe Steffen aced the Bomber event, while Rubin Malaguarner
did the same to the Classic Brakeless class. Malaguarner and third place
Joe Pape ride hard tail flatheads, while youngster Doug Douglas, in second
place, was on a cushy Brit machine. Richard Pollack had his 650 Honda based
mount smoking as he won both the Senior and the Vet races. Donnie Harrell
raced Pollack very close and hard on his new 450YZ Yamaha in the Vet feature.
The Super Senior’s top honors were taken by Ralph Porzelt.
The Open Pro race featured
a very competitive field of short trackers. Richard Pollack lead the first
couple of laps with Jimmy Wood, Joe Steffin, Donnie Harrell and Alex Wood
in tow. Jimmy Wood and Steffin got by Pollock on the third lap, but Pollock
dogged Steffin’s Rotax and reclaimed second on the tenth go round.
Wood was gone, but the war was for second thru fifth. Harrell drove off
four on the last lap and nipped Steffin at the flag. Justin Felice got
a terrible start and didn’t catch the pack until the last couple of laps.
The Open Novice division
was won by Todd Vaughn and the Open Amateur by Michael Oneil. James
Ottele was the leader of the Vintage 750 Class until Marvin Moore passed
the lead at mid race for the checker and the win.
