I remember in 76' when Cauthen ruled the IDT , in part because Jorge Velasquez & Angel Cordero vacationed in warmer climes,when they returned they double teamed the kid.Junior was on some cheap speed nag for Oscar(this was before OSB found juice ,and his brothers Luis and Wille and Laz all had better careers than he)Cauthen had the figure horse who also had speed,anyway Junior and "little Stevie "go into the clubhouse turn,with junior pumping and slashing and making Stevie use his horse,FF 3/4's a mile and junior is pulling up ,Stevie inherits the lead,but here come Jorge to get by Stevie's tiring mount at a good price.I guess Jorge and Angel wanted "the kid to see who the real bosses were.
