Story by: Steve Bowman
Round eight of the Mid-Atlantic Cross Country Series was held October 11th on private property near Frackville, Pennsylvania. The area is still active in the coal mining industry, but this day it was going to be used for some twowheeled vintage cross country fun! South Penn Enduro Riders (SPER) had the honor of hosting the event and laying out the four and a half-mile course which consisted of fresh cut loamy single track woods, very little elevation change, short bursts on the powerline and back into the woods with just a “few rocks.” When you are from Pennsylvania, “a few rocks” means about 1000!
The “stick farm” (AKA: New Jersey) consisting of saplings was the tightest section of the course. The sandy/pebble-type dirt in this segment added to the variety. It was a great fall weekend with the leaves changing colors. Temperatures in the 60s made for excellent racing conditions. Although there hasn’t been very much rain in this area lately there was minimal dust. With the season winding down and championship points
standings coming to a close, this event would be the deciding factor for a few classes and for the overall for the year in both the Vintage and Post Vintage categories.
Now for some race action. For the start of both the Vintage and the Post Vintage races, each row would be a dead engine start every 30 seconds with the usual “tennnnn seconds” ‘til launch time announcement by the Brian Grove starter. About 45 riders lined up Photo by: in their respective classes for the Jean Fordyce 10:30 AM start of the vintage race. The start of row one saw Christian Brumbaugh (74X) with the holeshot. Main rival, Brian Grove (119X), got jammed up a little bit in the first turn but soon caught up to Brumbaugh and gave the spectators a fabulous show of good clean racing throughout the four-lap race. For
three laps the two riders were within one second of each other until lap four, when Brumbaugh increased the gap. It was great to see Joe Zito back in action aboard a Yamaha after several years on an old Triumph to round out the top three overall. While most of the top-10 riders were from the expert classes, a shout-out goes to sixth place overall, Blade Schmidt (199), from the Vintage Open Intermediate class. Top 10 overall goes to Yamaha-mounted Brett Reichart (700). Can’t forget about the women’s classes. Intermediate riders Kelly Pierce (402), Emily Reichart (733) and Jenn Smith (3R) finished in that order. Laci Horvath (996) had an unfortunate chain issue with her Husky resulting in a DNF in the Expert Women’s class. Hopefully, she was having fun up to that point.
After four laps Yamaha pilot, Christian Brumbaugh, becomes the Vintage overall winner for the day, Vintage Open Expert class and overall Vintage champion for the 2020 season. Brian Grove, on his Husky, earned a very hard fought second place. Those two put on an amazing show of good clean racing and great battles throughout the season. Congratulations to you both!
Now after all that excitement, it’s time for some Post Vintage race action. Multi-time ISDE Gold medalist, Fred Hoess, heard there was going to be an awesome vintage race in Pennsylvania that he might be interested in. (Yeah, I told him.) Fred wasn’t sure if he would be able to arrange his work schedule in Colorado, but it worked out; he showed up and entered in the event. About 78 riders lined up for the 1:30 PM start of the Post Vintage race. After the 10 second warning, the green flag waved for the start of the first row. Fred Hoess grabbed the holeshot, headed into the tight right-hand first turn and into the woods. Following closely behind him were Brian Grove and Christian Brumbaugh who once again battled for year-end overall championship points.
The row two holeshot saw Ethan Waddell (51) showing Wyatt Stoup (34) and “The Schwein Dog,” Brian Schwein (31), the quickest way to the woods. Next to launch off the line were the 50+ and 60+ Experts. Wow! What a crowded first turn that resulted in. The three “Sea of Blue” Yamahas of MidAtlantic Cross Country organizer, Dave Kutskel (11C), Craig Shenigo (945) and (me) Steve Bowman (104) led the pack through the first turn. This was a great race between the three of us with Shenigo taking the 50+ Expert win and Kutskel and myself just seconds behind.
Mid-Atlantic Cross Country’s race Flyer designer, Glenn Hershey (71T), gets the jump on his Can-Am followed by Wes Brownawell (37), Jim Stanley (711) and taking the wide route, Dave McIntyre (57). Well into the first lap “Fast Fred” was on cruise control
leading the overall and enjoying the nice flow of the course. He should have felt right at home in the “New Jersey” section of tight trees and single track. After five laps of a super fun course and excellent racing, Fred Hoess took the overall win, second overall to ECEA Enduro rider, Steve Mason, who we believe is getting addicted to vintage racing. Ice racer and CR500 pilot, Bruce Peifer, finished third. Fourth through tenth overall: Wyatt Stoup, Christian Brumbaugh, Brian Grove (Christian and Brian battled back-and-forth throughout the day), SPER member Mark Hummel who was a huge help in helping to design and set up the course, Waddell, Brett Reichart and Craig Shenigo. The real down-to-thewire battle was between Christian Brumbaugh and Brian Grove for the PV Fred Hoess overall championship for Photo by: Jean Fordyce 2020. Brumbaugh came out on top and those men deserve a huge round of applause for their accomplishments.
SPER would like to thank all the volunteers who helped make this event a success: Steve Bowman, Pat Bowman, Mark Hummel, Sandy Quickel, Stacey Clark, Chris Walmer, Doug Bradley, Bob Shughart, Mike Long, Curtis Weir, Eric Bowman, George Bressler, Rob Kramer, George Easterly and Andy Schaeffer. Also, thanks to WRMC’s Rick Albert for helping clear trail and Potomac Vintage Riders and volunteers from the Mid-Atlantic Cross Country group who take care of sign-up, scoring and awards. You all do a great job, and we look forward to working with you again in the future.
(Continued from page 44) Bear Creek is one of THE favorite motocross courses on our calendar and just plain fun to ride with a high speed (think TT) section and lots of flowing challenges. Track conditions were great for the eight races that Merritt Brown organized based on the sign-ups. And while not around on Saturday, multi-time ISDE racer and Bear Creek Sportsman club member, Drew Smith, decided to grace us with his presence on Sunday. Race one included all the Post Vintage age class experts and intermediates and was the largest racing class action of the day. Suzukimounted Jim Kechisen (40+ Expert) flew to victory with Bob Frederick’s Yamaha and Dave Boast’s Maico (first and second 50+ Expert) following him home and Drew Smith (first 60+ Expert) behind them. A special mention to Doug Labarr, who earned a “foam board,” winning the 70+ Intermediate class. Race two brought a crowd of Next Gen bikes with Barney Zipken (first Next Gen 125 Intermediate) beating three other riders and Noah Orser (first Next Gen 250 Intermediate) beating four other riders. Drew was back for Race three again and proceeded to tear up the track for a 1-1 on the day, beating fellow Husky rider, Loren Wescott (2-3), in the first moto and Stephen Clare’s very fast Elsinore 125 (DNS-2) in the second moto for Vintage 60+ Expert honors. Race five featured the GP classes and there was plenty of go-fast action with Darrel Wassil’s Maico (GP 500 Expert) leading Rob Clare’s Honda (GP 250 Expert) over the line, and Terry McDonnell’s beautiful Husky CR125 (GP 125 Expert) third overall. Kevin Hicks’ RM250 finished first GP 250 Intermediate and beat four other riders in his class while he was at it. Representing the Pre-Modern bikes in Race seven and drawing a lot of “oohs” and “ahhs” as they cleared the up-hill ski jump were Bob Frederick (first Pre-Modern 250 Expert) and Mark Curran (Pre-Modern 250 Intermediate).
More action to describe than AHRMA MAG will allow in this space, so let’s wrap up this weekend by saying Thank You again to the Bear Creek Sportsman club staff and since we already mentioned Dave and his son Sam, let’s add Matt Scott, and a man who always has a smile—Otto De Jager.
Three more rounds to go this Fall—we’ll report on those in the December issue. Look us up on face book or www.ahrmane.org for event information. Eddie Lawson Tribute Bike Raffle Winner Drawn!

Making History
Cecil Sandford made history as the fi rst rider to win a World Championship riding an MV Agusta. Now, at the age of 91, he is motorcycling’s oldest-surviving World Champion and still has vivid memories of Grand Prix racing in the 1950s. By Mat Oxley Photos by Chippy Wood and Sandford Archives
On Wednesday, June 11th, 1952, Cecil Sandford started something very big. He scored the fi rst World Championship race victory for MV Agusta, the marque that went on to become the most successful manufacturer in Grand Prix racing, with 275 race wins and 75 Rider and Constructor world titles. Even now, almost half a century after MV’s last race, only Honda, Yamaha, and Aprilia have achieved more Grand Prix success. Two months after Sandford took MV’s fi rst classic win in the Ultra-Lightweight TT, he clinched the 125cc World Championship, MV’s fi rst. Five years later he won his second World Championship, in the 250cc class, with rival ItalHISTOIIIC IIAC••11t• ,,,usTIIATION$ By Mick Ofield Classic Race Engines VI Plus, some technical terms illustrated Valve & downdraft angles f -r Valve components By Mick historic racebike illustrations Port angles-me measured relative to_a line,drawn perpendicular to the cylinder cente4ne l<eepers/collets Top spring retainer Valve spring ian brand Mondial.

Britain’s greatest riders of all time. And he won the race in which Hailwood made his debut, at Oulton Park in April, 1957.
“Surtees was one of the best riders I ever watched,” recalls Sandford, a chipper nonagenarian with an amazing memory for the fi rst decade of motorcycle World Championship racing. “And Duke was always a step ahead. He was the only bloke I ever saw drift a motorbike, at Monza.”
Sandford started racing as a teenager, just after the Second World War, after converting his Triumph road bike for scrambling, trials, and grass-track duties.
Next came road racing, usually at disused wartime bases like Haddenham, Dunholme, and Blandford Forum. He made his TT debut in the 1948 Clubmans Junior, although he very nearly didn’t make it to the Isle of Man.
“We were taking my Velocetteto Douglas from Liverpool, with me, my mum and my dad in an MG with the Velo on a trailer. At the docks we gave the car to the AA to put on the boat [this was pre-roll-on/roll-off ferries], went for some dinner, came back and stood in the passenger queue to get on the boat. We’d been there for quite a while when my mum pointed at a boat pulling out of the docks and said, ‘I’m sure that’s the boat we put the car on’. And it was. The queue we were stood lor to ask if he’d let me go, because in was for the boat to New York.” Two years later Sandford made his Continental debut, riding an AJS 7R in the Italian GP at Monza. “That was my fi rst time abroad and Europe was still recovering from the war, very much Les had suggested to Domenico that I ride for them in 1952.” Agusta had recently recruited engineer Piero Remor and mechanic Arturo Magni from Gilera.

Hundreds of racers from North America and other parts of the world converged on Daytona International Speedway to compete for race wins and National Championships at the 36th annual Championship Cup Series (CCS) Race of Champions, featuring the fi nal rounds of the AMA-sanctioned American Sportbike Racing Association (ASRA) National Sprint and Team Challenge series.
On the line were eight National Championships in the ASRA Sprint Series Presented by Pirelli Tire, decided by points accumulated over a seven-round season; four National Championships in the ASRA Team Challenge Series Presented by Michelin Tire, decided by points accumulated during an eight-round season; and 54 CCS National Championships, which were decided by winner-take-all sprint races. The Race of Champions also included two MotoGirlGT exhibition races, featuring only female competitors.
After a full day of mostly dry practice time and the Team Hammer Advanced Riding School on Friday, racing began in wet conditions on Saturday; the track dried out later in the afternoon and

stayed dry on Sunday.
Former Moto2 World Championship rider and 2008 125cc Grand Prix World Championship runner-up Simone Corsi rode a Pirelli-fi tted Squid Hunter Racing Yamaha YZF-R6 in the ASRA Team Challenge race as part of a last-minute deal put together as a possible precursor to a Daytona 200 effort. The 32-year-old Italian took the overall lead on lap 30 of the race and turned laps as quick as 1:53.485 to pull away and claim the overall and GTU class victories by 13.869 seconds. “I love this track,” Corsi said in English from the podium. “The race was very diffi cult, but I enjoy it very much. I want to thank my team. They did a great job.”
West Side Performance’s Christian Miranda, age 19, raced closely with Corsi but fell behind after the fi rst and only round of pit stops. Miranda, however, held on to fi nish second overall and in the GTU class on his Yamaha YZF-R6. Series regular Lloyd Bayley fi nished third overall and fi rst in the GTO category on his BMW S1000RR.
Jinba Ittai Motorsport’s Joel Lenk crossed the fi nish line fourth overall and second in the GTO class, and that was enough to claim the 2019 ASRA Team Challenge Overall and GTO Championships. Jinba Ittai Motorsport edged out seven-time ASRA Team Challenge Champion Grease Monkey Racing (Eric Helmbach/Stephen Hoffman) for both titles. Grease Monkey Racing fi nished the race sixth overall and third in GTO.
JoeyO Racing (Robert Bettencourt/Sean Osowski) took 18th overall and won in the GT Lights category on a Yamaha FZ07, while fourth place in the GT Lights division was enough for Racing 101 (Doug Stuffl ebeam/ Gino Angella/Mark Evry/Joseph Ciesnik) to secure the GT Lights Team Challenge Championship.
The Team Challenge race was originally scheduled to run for 55 laps, but a crash in the chicane Roger Morissette (60) took fi rst place in CCS GT Lights and CCS Moto3 Expert on his Suzuki SV650.

By Chris UlrichW hen Ducati introduced the 959 Panigale in 2016, it offered plenty of performance without any of the usual drama of riding a fi re-breathing 1000cc sportbike. After riding the 2020 Panigale V2—the new designation for Ducati’s fully faired V-Twin sportbike—at Jerez for a day, I’m still convinced that this smaller- displacement Panigale V-Twin is a great alternative to an open-class sportbike.With Ducati’s high-performance Superbike platform moving to a V4 engine confi guration, company engineers gave the 959 a host of smart upgrades and the new V2 designation. Ducati refers to the V2 as another model in its "Super-mid" heritage that dates back to the 748, fi rst released in 1994. The 748 and the succeeding model, the 749, were potent weapons competing on the racetrack against 600cc inline four-cylinder machines, but the bike was banned from the Supersport World Championship when Ducati added 99cc to create the 848 platform for the 2008 model year. A major change came in the 2012 model year, when Ducati abandoned the tried-and-true tubular-steel trellis chassis, building an aluminum monocoque chassis for the 1199 Panigale. Following the lead of its fl agship model, Ducati implemented the monocoque chassis on the 899 Panigale for the 2013 model year. The next evolution was the 955cc 959 Panigale. In 26 years the Super-mid line went from the displacement of a true middleweight to the displacement of a full-blown superbike. It’s amazing what a couple hundred cubic centimeters do for performance!Which brings us to the 2020 model year and the new Euro5 emission standards. A key design challenge for this 959 update was to meet the Euro5 standards without losing performance. And Ducati engineers have done that with the V2. Ducati claims the 2020 upgraded V2 version of the company’s 955cc V-Twin Superquadro engine—which has a bore and stroke of 100mm x 68.5mm and a compression ratio of 12.5:1—puts out 155 bhp and 76.7 lbs-ft of torque.For 2020, Ducati brought the styling and design of the Panigale V2 in line with the look of the Panigale V4 platform, although the bodywork on the V2 is 1.6 inches (40mm) narrower. Like the bodywork on the V4, the V2’s upper fairing now has larger ram-air inlets with the headlights mounted inside the cutouts for the ductwork, along with the same tailsection design. A new single-sided swingarm and a new exhaust system that looks similar to the V4 exhaust were also fi tted to the V2. Both those changes can be justifi ed in terms of overall performance, but also contributed to an 11-pound increase in weight. (More on the changes later.)Performance improvements start at the leading edge of the upper fairing, where larger intake POWER Without Drama (Above) The 2020 Ducati Panigale V2 is based on the Panigale 959, but with intake and exhaust system changes needed to meet Euro5 emission standards without losing performance. The exhaust box under the engine holds the catalytic converter and provides the large volume needed to maintain power. (Below, Right) Advanced Bosch IMU-based electronics from the V4 line represent a signifi cant upgrade for the V2. 18—Roadracing World, December 2019
