The track was a mix of challenges for the riders, with seriously rutted jump faces. Practice times for the second 450 practice were actually slower than the first round by about a second. There were also some loose sections with some pretty big rocks. James Stewart set the pace in both practices, by just a hair ahead of Ricky Carmichael. Chad Reed was third. It'll be interesting to see how (or if) they change tomorrow after whoops are installed.
