Anaheim 2 is in the history books once again with Eli Tomac winning the 250 class and stretching out his point lead and Ryan Villopoto taking his second win, the only repeat winner so far in the series, and claims the red number plate as he takes over the lead in the points chase.  Here is a collection of photos from the daytime practice as well as the night’s races.

The first race of the 2012 SX is now history and the series moves on to Phoenix next week.  It was a great opener with plenty of on-track drama as riders made critical errors during the main event, mixing up the finishing order at the end.   For complete SX coverage, make sure and visit the TransworldMX.com website.   See the gallery below for a few images from Anaheim.

The inaugural supercross at Dodger Stadium was loaded with great racing.   It was also loaded with other first time events such as the first SX Lites win by Cole Seely for the Troy Lee Designs race team as well as the first time in many years that the top 5 riders battled so hard for the win.   There were multiple race leaders and plenty of jockeying for postion through the entire race, as well as Chad Reed going for laying on the ground in dead last at the start to finishing 7th at the end.  For more information on the racing action, go to the Transworld MX Race Report to read up on the blow by blow action.

The 2011 supercross season kicked off at Anaheim this weekend, much to the anticipation of fans everywhere.  The Supercross class is loaded deep with talent this year with several riders capable of taking a win.   The top 5 finishers in the class at the end of the night wasn’t a big surprise, but the order of finish was.   James Stewart was heavily favored, but ended in third behind Ryan Villopoto and Ryan Dungey.   Fourth was Trey Canard followed by Chad Reed.   This years series looks to be one of the most competitive in years, I’m looking forward to seeing it unfold.   See the gallery for photos from the pits, daytime practice and the races.
