The Supercross Lites West field was missing both Ben
Townley, now on the Red Bull Racing Honda CRF250R,
and his arch rival Ryan Villopoto, both of whom had
chosen to run the SX Lites East Series instead.
Newly signed Dan Reardon used the power and traction
of his Torco Racing Fuels Honda CRF250R to take the
holeshot in the Supercross Lites West main, running
ahead of the entire field until lap five, when he was
finally run down by Jason Lawrence. A wonderful battle
for the top spot ensued, with Dan Reardon, Jason
Lawrance, Ryan Dungey and Justin Brayton all battling to
take, and keep, the lead for the first half of the contest.
It finally came down to Dungey and Lawrence, the race
decided when Lawrence tumbled on lap nine, conceding
the win to Dungey. Honda CRF250R rider Reardon
finished an excellent fourth, showing his speed and
determination in the ever-changing, ever treacherous
conditions. hondaredriders.com
