Q&A with the the top riders, industry players, and celebrities connected with motocross and supercross.
- 5 Minutes With... Dean WilsonDecember 29, 2010“Next year” for racers and fans will be here on Saturday, January 8, 2011. That's when the 2011 Monster Energy AMA Supercross Championship begins. However, as far as Dean Wilson is concerned, he’s still not quite sure if he’ll be lining up at the West Region Lites opener at Angels Stadium in Anaheim or the Lites East Region kickoff round in Houston come February. That decision will be made for Wilson at the eleventh hour by the Monster Energy/Pro Circuit Kawasaki team owner Mitch Payton. After Wilson was detained in Canada due to visa and immigration issues (thus missing the ensuing Dallas and Jacksonville rounds), all have assumed that the Scottish/Canadian would be kept out of Canada, and duly, the East Region in 2011.
