The Justin TV link worked, just had to select 'sport' again and select AMA Supercross.

Interesting race, the winner was hot all night.

Good thing I didn't bet the house on the result!

But a shakeup is good....it should be a great season.

Who'd have thought Milsaps had that in him? that last lap pass on Canard was a ripper. This might be the start of a new guard

Firko, I wouldn't back him for the series win but he is rding well (Milsaps) and looking the fittest I have ever seen him look.

Looking like a top series!!

Davi looked great all day - right from first practice.  Was good to see him and Trey battling it out the entire main event as both guys are very lucky to be alive, no matter racing.
Dungey looked solid enough and the punkin no longer looks like it is holding him back.   RV looked hesitant all day apparently and showed that just like Stewart he is prone to panicking.  Talking about Stewy - I am told his knee injury occurred during the track walk - unconfirmed, but from a great source).  Barcia looked pretty solid too, but I am picking Dungey for the series unless he has an injury.

Had a couple other sources for online viewing and will put a link up for the next event.
Poke that bone back in and wrap it up tight sport - I am racing the second moto.

I thought Milsaps was showing his potential last year, lets not forget that he finished second. He seems to be fitter and so smooth this year so even though I won't be backing him yet, I think both he and Trey Canard have the right stuff to shake up the usual suspects. Justin Barcia looked good too but got sloppy and crashed out, he might be worth watching. Dear old Chad showed that just hanging in there and staying out of trouble will bring home the points, as Milsaps did last year. Don't count out Bubba, Dungey and Villipoto yet, it's a long season.

What about the commentator jumping on the bandwagon " Canard , one of the best at keeping the bike low by scrubbing "

Millsap passed him with a classic 70's cross up. Who needs a scrub

Well in someway he did, in his Bio he said it is the lords way of getting him to where he is today?? Go figure?

View the like below on UTube, But all in all he is a down to earth guy who wants nothing more than to ride.
