In The News - By Racer X
After fifteen races where just about everything that could happen, did happen, this year's Monster Energy Supercross Championship may have come down to 20 laps in Salt Lake City. Ryan Villopoto came out on top, and now he controls the series with a nine-point lead heading into the series' finale this weekend in Las Vegas. After the race, we found him in his motorhome and asked him about what may turn out to be the most important race of the season.
When the 1999 AMA Supercross tour kicked off, it really looked like Team Honda's Ezra Lusk might have something for Jeremy McGrath and his Mazda/Chaparral Yamaha. McGrath was back on form, but it was Lusk who took the first two rounds. But once the series settled into its rhythm, McGrath upped his game and began pulling away from Lusk and the rest of the field. McGrath would win half of the 16 rounds and with them his fifth AMA Supercross title in six years. But after that McGrath would only enter a couple of outdoor nationals, as his career plan was to focus on AMA Supercross.
We're past the halfway mark in our 40-Day Countdown to the 40th Annual Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross Championship. Each day, Racer X Online runs through the history books, with 1995 up for grabs today.
