The day of the GP started off with lots of rain, the vet GP was in steady rain and muddy conditions.   By the time the start of the MX2 race had come, the rain had subsided but the track was a muddy mess.  As the motos went on, the track got drier but was a rough and rutted circuit after the earlier races had torn it up.   The racing was excellent, for more detailed info on the races go to the Transworld Motocross Race Report.   For photos, see the gallery below.

The USGP is making its second visit to Glen Helen Raceway with practice and qualifying on Saturday.  The World MX GP championship is only in its 3rd round out of the 15 round schedule, the season is only beginning.  In qualifying, Ken Roczen and Clement Desalle were the two dominant riders in the MX1 and MX2 classes respectively.   Roczen had a runaway win in the MX2 qualifying, while Desalle had a much tighter qualifying race.  Only a handful of US riders showed to try to claim the $100,ooo bonus offered to any US rider that can win the MX1 class.  The racing should be a great battle though with many of the regular GP riders trying to make an early statement in the series.   As always, you can check Transworld Motocross for full race coverage.   See below for a gallery of photos from the qualifying action as seen on the Transworld site.

X Racing finished of f their year at Glen Helen Raceway with the last round of the prize series.  The weekend had two rounds, one each day on an overcast and cool weekend.   There was a great turnout both days and the track looked excellent and held up well.   The club will take a few weeks off over the holidays and hit the track again on January 2, 2011.

Day two of the USGP kicked off with excellent racing in both the MX1 and MX2 classes.  It was great to see several American riders as well as other AMA national riders paired up against the top GP riders.  There were epic battles in both classes.   The crowd  was relatively small, and those that didn’t attend missed out on a great day of racing and some ultra-trick motorcycles in the pits.

The FIM GP made a stop in the US at Glen Helen after many years of not haing a round Stateside.  Youthstream and the FIM came in and brought a  very professional atmosphere to Glen Helen.  Here are photos from the practice an qualifying on the first day of the GP weekend.
