Chad just won a AMA Supercross round at Atlanta.

Chad got the start and lead every lap. Dungey 2nd and Canard 3rd.

Congratulation Chad!

Ya, good effort from the toughest rider out there.

His Kawasaki might finally be working how he wants it. Apparently been some rear suspension changes. Looked better power down and over the whoops.

Any racing is about confidence and starts. If he can put together a run of wins who knows. Just a bit of useless information the Daytona 500 was won by Joey Logana this morning driving car No 22. Maybe another Daytona win for No 22 next week.

Not a biggie to me (this time) because I watched it Live - but you might not want to put the results in the title.

It's a courtesy to put *Spoiler* in the title, but not the actual result.
Remember that no doubt a lot of members here record it and watch it afterwards.

With Hardo on the spoiler.

Here is a link to the 250's and 450's:

I locked up the iPad like most Sunday afternoons.
Even a dam pic on Facebook kills it!

Anyway we just finished the counciling! And we didn't quite devorse.  ;D

There is another SX at Atlanta this coming weekend. Then the week after it is Daytona so if someone doesn't want to know the result stay off the internet.

Usually by about 3 or 4 o'clock on Sunday afternoon they're on youtube ;) Haven't missed an AMA SX or Motocross event for the past few seasons :)

I try and stay away from motocross websites and forums after Sunday as i love to watch the races and it makes it really exciting when you dont know the results before hand.  I have to agree with Hardo that it is nice to have a spoiler alert in the title just as a courtesy.  Thats also why i stay away from YouTube as sometimes the winners are in the titles, or big crashes etc..
I usually get my fix from SlickNick and get my snacks, drinks and cordless headphones on, with the 50" tele and remote controls at the ready.  Heaven.
Looking forward to a double dose as well, with the MXGP season starting up this weekend... whooohooo..

Yeah It was a great race by Chad. Led from start to finish which just goes to show that the Old Boy in the pack still has the speed and stamina if he gets a clear track to race on. I don't know if he was running out of puff, but Dungey the Diesel was closing in fast with 6 laps to go.
A spoiler alert would be good for those that haven't had the time to watch the race yet. As for me, I avoid all internet activity on Sundays so I don't have any chance of stumbling onto the results.
