  • Rockstar Energy Drink U.S. Open Starting Line-Up

AURORA, Ill. (October 9, 2006) – The 2006 Rockstar U.S. Open announced today the starting line up for the AMA Supercross and AMA Supercross Lites classes at this year’s event held inside Las Vegas’ MGM Grand Garden Arena Saturday, October 13-14. This year’s Rockstar Energy Drink U.S. Open will air on CBS Sports Saturday, October 21, 2006 from 1:30-3:00 p.m. (EST) and boasts the most competitive line-up ever.

“The starting grid this year is equally impressive for both the AMA Supercross and AMA Supercross Lites classes,” said Todd Jendro, senior director of the Rockstar Energy Drink U.S. Open. “We’ve waited a long time to see Ricky Carmichael and James Stewart race inside the MGM Grand Garden Arena, and this year, fans will not want to miss this epic race.”

In the AMA Supercross Lites class, the top three finishers in the Eastern Regional AMA Supercross Lites class – Chris Gosselaar, Josh Grant and Tommy Hahn – will extend their three-way battle at this year’s Rockstar Energy Drink U.S. Open. As a rookie in 2004, Hahn finished third overall in the U.S. Open’s AMA Supercross Lites class.
