Does anyone have results from 1981 Yamaha Race Of Champions 80cc?

Or even know who participated?

Would Larry Brooks, Paul Denis, Bruce Bunch, Rick Hemme, Kyle Fleming have been in the '81 YROC 80cc race?

Mike Healey, Eddie Hicks, Troy Blake?

I asked some months ago in Old School Moto but no replies.

Paging UpTiTe, LBrooks.

Thanks!

Brooks and most of the afore mentioned would have been already on 80's. Brooks won Ponca in 81 on a privateer Yamaha I believe. Met some of his family at Ponca in 82 when he was an R&D pilot, nice as could be!

Those guys are all in the right age if not all in it. Only other I can think of might have been Mouse McCoy. I need my thinking cap.

Everybody in your post except maybe Healy and Hicks. I think Troy won it. I also believe Sam Storer, Todd Campell were in it.

Edit. I think Larry Ward was to young at that time.

Ya if i remember correctly Troy won. Pretty sure that was the same year Ronnie got hit by a pit squid coming off his moto and busted his face open (might of been 82). Bet my mom has pics on slides stored away, i need to get a slide scanner so bad.

79, 80, 81, 82 were the heydays of the mini class, so many fast guys on 80 then, but only one or two won on big bikes. Kehoe Holland and Bruce Bunch were so fast on 80s. And there was Mouse on his 1980 yz 50.

I remember a NMA race at Indian Dunes in 81 where all the 125 guys stood in the sand wash to watch the 80 class because it was so entertaining.
