sounds like it may be a different day to the day i went.

kel amberntson the ex Swede GP rider i remember racing against him early 80's when he rode a Can Am Sonic 500 in some 4 stroke Mx Races (this was 81 -85 era) he was a great rider, was he riding the sonic on that day you mentioned or something like a BSA B50MX?

yeah hoony he was riding a 1977 husky 250 on the day if my fading memory serves me right and kel did have a can am. In the early eightys he had a very quick xl500 and before that a ccm loved his 4 strokes he was in our club mcrcv and used to ride all the club days i think he is living back in sweden now  8)
