Although...

I thoroughly enjoyed RonRon putting a few moves on Bubbles back in the day. The young RC vs K-Dub is a classic.

But I still agree with you, David.

Sure was, and the old coverage was cool too. A fitting show for a race named after someone who put so much into the sport.

I was stoked to see Hansen lay it down, and keep the gas on the entire 15 laps! Right on Hanny!

It was great but could you imagine how much better it may have been with Canard in the mix.

Yes and no. Canard was off the pace, and he seems like he's better on the 450. Just my humble opinion. I think it would have been better with Bam Bam up front as well.

i agree Dave, man can you image the grin Mitch had on his face while sitting back and watching that all go down? after all the bad luck he has had the last few years at that race, to go 1-4 is pretty badass.

He wasn't off the pace. He was just as fast but he went down twice.

Roncada raceing with James Stewart was pretty memorable for me too, as was the Dunge beating RV.

Those four chargeing ballsout the whole way last night made that race great.

For the most part, it was a clean race to boot. 1 through 4 raced hard and not a single cheap shot the entire race.

It was a very good race, much better than the normal 250F race.

It just goes to show if they get rid of the East/West nonsense and have these guys race every supercross, it would be a great series.

Last nights race was one of the best races I've seen in a long time.
In 94 Pedro Gonzales Damon Huffman and Ryan Hughes had quite a battle,Huffman got screwed toward the end of the race when Sane Trttler jumped off his bike in mid air and landed on the back of Huffmans bike while his own bike cartwheeled down the track.Ryan and Pedro got away when Damon had to stop and let Shane off the back of his bike.

It was awesome. Those guys raced each other hard and clean and it came down to the last lap.
