I think Dallas 03 is the best race ever. I was there and there was more lead changes than Anaheim 86. I never sat down the entire main.

1990 Atlanta best.
1996 Seattle was really good with MC and Damon Huffman trading the lead.

Of course I am biased but Pontiac and Orlando 05 were great races... Chad came from a long way back to win Pontiac on a technical dirty track and orlando was the same after a motor went out on the line, this was weeks after getting his ass handed to him at atlanta and then getting it done at Daytona...

That season was pretty epic, such a bummer RC's knee went in 04...

1996 St Louis Supercross. I think that's got to be in the conversation.

No one's impressed? Watch- it'll have the best racing of the year- people will talk about it like Anaheim 86, Atlanta 90, or Dallas 03.

Or not. Laughing

What? Is there a reason you bumped a 2.5 year old thread?

There is not one best. In my opinion, the best Supercross races of all times: 1986 Anaheim, 1987 LA SX, 1990 ATL, 1990 Seattle, 1990 Charlotte, 1996 St Louis SX, 2001 Anaheim 2, 2002 MI SX, 2005 Daytona SX, 2014 Toronto

hahaha... Because they were either converted a long time ago or your monitor is in HD.

You should see how it is for us with the NTSC and PAL difference. Fuck knows how you blokes watched things like Hockey or Baseball back in the day!

Somebody must have a big collection of these old races on tapes and such , they should get busy putting them up on you tube with better quality. There are some races on there as recent as 2007-2008 that are unwatchable

Oh shit. Totally didn't mean to do that.
I was responding to the "RC Unveils new Daytona SX Track" thread and couldn't remember what year that excellent Atlanta race was in (1990). I looked it up using this thread, responded to it and then clicked out of that page. Nope- actually I had responded to this thread, then when I closed this tab, the thread I intended to respond to was still there, without my post of course. I figured it just hadn't gone through, so I responded again. Now it makes sense.... Laughing Laughing Blush

Oh how I miss that combo of Reed and that yz250.
Same here, he was so smooth and flawless on the 250. Loved watching him thru the whoops.

Was it 1990 Atlanta where Matasevich who took Cooper out on the last lap, and handed the win to Dubach, with Bradshaw pushing hard at the final few turns? Where were the Honda guys (Bayle, Stanton, Kiedrowski, Johnson)?
Wow that was crazy!!

1990 Alanta Supercross has to top Anahiem '86 as best ever! For you newcomers to the sport, you should watch this race, cause never have so many legends (champions) been in the same race at one time like this! Ricky Johnson, Johnny O'Mara, Damon Bradshaw, Guy Cooper, Jeff Ward, Jeff Stanton, Mike LaRocco, Jean Michele Bayle, Jeff Matiasevich, Mike Kiedrowski ( All Champions at some point in their career) all swapping positions. Never will you see a race like this where you have up to 8 different leaders in a race!
I was at the Atlanta 1990 race, and it was amazing.

Nope, wrong race or you have the details mixed up. Wardy won 1990.
