Gentlemen Start Your Engines . . . The sixth annual Grand Prix, which was the biggest and best that Tri-State has seen. A crowd of 2600 covered the area surrounding the race track. Last year’s winner, Ken Opdycke again gained the first place trophy along with the pole position award and sports¬ manship award. Rich Berry came in sec¬ ond after a close race with Mike Fedor- cak coming in third. Ken Tillich received the Hardship trophy after expe¬ riencing the most technical difficulties with his cart. Mark Scott and Jon McMaken were the only drivers who did not experience difficulties during the race. Dan Gilbert broke his steering wheel before the race was postponed due to the rain. Prior to the race he rolled his cart. Jeff Haskins blew his engine. Ken Opdycke experi¬ enced clutch problems and Rich Berry had difficulties with his carburetor. Mike Fedorcak lost his brakes which forced him to swerve and drive down the grass median. At one point during the race, Mike Fedorcak carried the lead; however the i last half of the race showed Ken in first place with a 75 yard and eight second lead. The race proved to be faster than expected as the top three winners drop¬ ped a half a second from their qualifying time. The average speed was 43 miles per hour with a few carts topping out at over 60 miles per hour on the straighta¬ way. i RACE POSITIONS 1. Ken Opdycke 2. Rich Berry 3. Mike Fedorcak 4. Jon McMaken 5.
