Ohio County Fair Motocross Series - Round 3
Circleville, OH
JUN 26
Circleville,
also commonly known as "round town" and "pumpkinville"
- recently had a visit from
royalty - the bluebloods arrived by truck and trailer,
nonchalantly. Richard B.
Robinson, respectively referred to as the "King" in
district 11, due to his speed,
notoriety and elderly status - has established a record for being
consistently fast and
consistently racing - the old man has been winning races locally
for better than twenty years
now and won't slow down. Tonight would be no different for the
"King" - loading up the
family chariot and heading south, King Richard ruled the empire
from the seat of his mighty Honda CR-450 F. Royally manhandling
the younger and feisty members
at this splendid and prestigious fair-race - Robinson racked
up the wins in the 30 and 40 plus classes amid much fanfare. In
other racing news at this round
three of the Ohio County Fairs Motocross Championship Series,
Dickie Hoy and his Buckeye Powersports
backed CR-125 stole the show in the 125 A Class,
while the number twenty-two of BWR sponsored Scott Kuchler took
the money in 250 A. Lancaster's
Jesse Gustafson Jr. was the master of the 85cc classes - he
Ran to victory in the Mini-Senior and
85 Extra divisions. Hamilton's Charlie Mullins was
spectacular under the neon glare of the Tilt-A-Wheel, while
carnival music spilled over and
interrupted the noise of the bikes - he stole off with two classes
- the schoolboy and 125 B. Two
fast young men on their Yamaha PW-50's were victors on the night -
Evan Parkinson won his heat of the 4-8
division, while Ethan Scarberry won the other.
