Holley and Kehoe Through the Astrodome Ruts (1983)

Jim Holley (No. 49) on his factory support Yamaha leading Erik Kehoe (No. 32) at the Houston Supercross in 1983. This was a doubleheader weekend and if Jim sees this, I would like to know what happened to him in Sunday’s race. Cycle News reports that he won one of the qualifying races, but he’s not listed in the final results. Did he get hurt during the qualifier and decide not to race the final? It’s not mentioned in the reporting. Regardless, it looks like riders in the Astrodome had to negotiate some pretty massive ruts.
