AMA Supercross Lites

Torco Racing Fuels Honda’s Trey Canard wasn’t the fastest rider in the Atlanta season-opener, on his way to his first-ever professional supercross win, but this past weekend in Indy, he was. Canard ran a 46.812 (which came on the first lap of the main event), which was just a bit faster than Ryan Villopoto’s 46.837, which came on lap five.
 

Trey Canard did it again!

The third-fastest Lites rider in Indiana was RV’s teammate, Branden Jesseman, and Canard’s teammate, Josh Grant, was fourth. Rockstar/Makita Suzuki’s Nico Izzi rounded out the top five on his way to his first career podium finish. Check out the entire field below:

Biggest surprise: Or should I say disappointment? Coming into the season, one of the title favorites was Boost Mobile/Yamaha of Troy’s Ryan Morais, who was a very close runner-up for the Eastern Regional Lites championship to Ben Townley in 2007. Unfortunately, he has been unable to find the speed from last season and recorded only the 12th-fastest Lites lap time in Indy—almost a full three seconds off of Canard’s best time. He’s currently 12th in points with an 11th and 14th-place finish.

AMA Supercross

Chad Reed got back on top of his game in a big way in Indy, laying down the fastest lap of the night aboard his San Manuel/Fusion Energy Yamaha. In fact, his best lap time (45.574) was almost a full second faster than that of Honda Red Bull Racing’s Andrew Short (46.402), who was the second-fastest premier-class rider. The third-fastest lap time was logged in by second-place finisher Josh Hill, aboard his factory Yamaha, followed by Torco Racing Fuels Honda’s Kevin Windham and 450-class rookie Ryan Dungey, aboard his (or Michael Byrne’s) Rockstar/Makita Suzuki RM-Z450.

Reedy was speedy.

Biggest surprise: After logging the fastest lap time of everyone in his win last week in Atlanta, Honda Red Bull Racing’s Davi Millsaps failed to crack the top-five-best 450-class times with his 47.032 inside the RCA Dome. Maybe Davi was having an off-night, or maybe this just is a great example of the parity we have this year in the AMA Supercross class.

Ryan Dungey was quick on his RM-Z450
