Round 11 AMA Supercross 2013 - Indianapolis

AMA Supercross 2013 round 11 makes its way into Lucas Oil stadium in Indianapolis.

After the big, long, wide and rough Daytona track, tonights track looks like an arenacross circuit.

In the 250's Marvin Musquin is coming off a win from Daytona, but Wilson had the fastest qualifying times. In the end Wilson hit the ground hard in his heat and didn't make the main.

Musquin took another win after Wharton stumbled. Hahn finished third and maintained his lead.

The 450's look like bikes that are too big for this track!

The 'wall' and sand section are back and the two Ryan's are at the pointy end of the field.

AMA Supercross Round 10 - Daytona!!!

AMA Supercross 2013 this week for round 10 is at the legendary Daytona speedway!.

Ricky Carmichael designed this track and it's an absolute beauty.

The track looks like a European sand circuit and in the 250 class Marvin Musquin is looking comfortable. Will Hahn wants to maintain and extend his points lead and Dean Wilson is looking to get back on the top step of the podium after two second place finishes.

The 450's are doing 1 minute, 20 second lap times which is long for supercross and with the track basically sand it makes the second half of a twenty lap main really tough. Villopoto is looking hungry but has a bit of the 'Stewarts' in his riding... win or bail!

Tonight Millsaps looks like he's riding injured, Reed is at times the fastest guy on the track, but does he win?

AMA Supercross 2013 this week for round 9 is in St. Louis at the Rams stadium.

The track designers seem to like building a wall jump and sand section into the track, but it really works well and makes for a diverse and technical track.

The 250 title is shaping up to be a battle between Geico Honda and Pro-Circuit Kawasaki with Will Hahn and Dean Wilson battling up front. Marvin Musquin doesn't seem to have the race pace yet. He's been posting top times in the timed practice and qualifying, but not transferring it to the mains.

The 450 class is stacked full of riders capable of taking the win and with James Stewart getting healthier and Chad Reed getting more confidence it makes for a great racing.

Tonight Millsaps has an off race and guess who takes advantage...

AMA Supercross - Round 8, Atlanta

Round 8 of the AMA Supercross 2013 this week finds itself in the Georgiadome at Atlanta.

The east series 250's seem to have the best heat races, while Reed and Villopoto don't look too impressive in their 450 heat races.

By the end of both main events we have two new class winners for 2013. That's five different main event winners in the 450 class and two in tow races for the 250 east series.

AMA Supercross - Round 7, Arlington

Round 7 of the AMA Supercross 2013 has come to Texas. Arlington will host the first round of the East Coast 250's and the next battle for the 450's.

The highlight of the night was not so much the racing (although that was great) had to be a Kyle Partridge pass through the whoops on the back wheel!

Zach Bell looks fast in the 250's but hit the ground hard twice on the night. Finally Chad Reed gets a good start in the main and keeps it upright through the first corners.

AMA Supercross 2013 Round 6 - San Diego

Round 6 of the AMA Supercross 2013 has come to San Diego. Last 250 West coast race before they take a break.

Another great round of ama supercross racing in both the 250 class and the 450 main event.

The heat races in the 450 main saw all the big names make it through to the main so we are setup for a top race.

The track was slick with rain the day before and technical with some tricky rhythm sections and big whoops.

Anaheim 3 AMA Supercross 2013 - Round 5

Round 5 of the AMA Monster Energy Supercross 2013 was back at Angel Stadium in Anaheim as there is work being done on Dodgers Stadium.

WOW!

If you haven't heard the results you have to take a look as it was another eventful race with plenty of ups and downs, spills and thrills and drama.

Some more quick observations:

A new win streak could be starting in the 250 class and once again two Aussies make the main! (I think Josh Cachia could be the next Aussie big thing... you heard it here first).

What's with Dungey's rear shock and should Roger Decoster go for safety over innovation?

How To do a Dirtbike Tire Change - Part 1

Anyone can think of themselves as an expert in changing dirtbike tires after watching countless youtube videos... I know I did.

The experts do it so quick sometimes you can feel like you are watching the video in fast forward. I even posted a video I filmed called 'Easy Dirtbike Tire Changes'.

So what was I going to call my dirtbike tire change video?

"No Sweat Dirtbike Tire Changing"?

"Piece of Cake Dirtbike Tire Changes"?

or "Really Easy Dirtbike Tire Change"?

I can say after doing it myself... none of those fit!

Oakland Supercross 2013

Round 3 of the AMA Monster Energy Supercross 2013 makes its way to Oakland California.

Track was built with a long sand section to make it different and there seemed to be a lot of pileups in a few of the races.

Track was technical and like Phoenix last week it appeared hard and dry with moisture coming out in the evening making it slick.

Some more quick observations:

Reed is finding his speed, Villopoto is looking ominous, Barcia is the unlucky one this week and Stewart may have aggravated his knee.

AMA Supercross 2013 - Round 1, Anaheim 1

The 2013 450 AMA Supercross class is absolutely stacked with stars, fast riders, young upstarts and an amazing come-back rider.

Of the five supercross riders touted to be up front on press day - Villopoto, Reed, Dungey, Stewart and Barcia, only one of them made the podium and that was not even the top step!

The days supercross racing was top stuff from the 250 heats through to the 450 main leaving the crowd thrilled and champing at the bit for round 2!

It was great to see the eventual winner congratulated by practically all the riders as they passed him and he proves that all the hard work done off the track in the pre-season really comes to the fore on race day.
