RACING to the end of what has been a good bat not a great season, Marty Knoll had
to settle for fifth place at Portland.

AT PORTLAND

The final race of the
International Conference of
Sports Cars Clubs (ICSCC)
1981 championship series
was run last weekend at
Portiand Internationai
Raceway with several North
Shore drivers participating,
with mixed results.

Marty Knoll, driving his
Microlon/Cleanco Western
Sponsored Formula Vee,
had to settle for fifth place in
his race.

Knoll started in fourth
place on the grid and
maintained this position
throughout the first lap.

But on the second lap,
Knoll was forced to the
outside of turn two as
another driver made a move.
This put him on a portion of
the track that was still wet
following a torrential
rainfall.

Knoll cnded up doing a
360° turn in the best stunt
driver style, leaving him
about ton seconds behind the
leaders

Though he managed to

keep up the pace, Knoll had
to settle for a fifth place
finish.

North Shore driver Tim
Moore drove his Datsun
240Z well all weekend, and
qualified on the _ pole
position for his race.

The start of the race was
five-car battle for the lead,
and Moore temporarily lost
his first place position.

But he quickly grabbed it
back and went on to win
both the overall victory and
in class, with no further
