Sign of the (Lap) Times: Glen Helen
It was a green day in San Bernardino, CA, yesterday as Kawasaki-mounted racers were perfect on the day, winning every moto convincingly in the hot Southern California sun. It was also a bittersweet day for Team USA. While two of the team members recorded decisive victories, the team's captain, Ricky Carmichael, suffered a first moto crash and was rushed to the hospital for further evaluation. He sustained a shoulder injury, and we'll let you know when we hear more. Nonetheless, let's take a look at the lap charts from yesterday's 11th Annual Giant RV MX Nationals, presented by Yamaha.
