RJ SAYS: Hidden Supercross Treasures

This 2010 Supercross season has gone exactly as no one expected. Everyone figured it was going to be a battle between the same two supercross 'titans' as last season - James Stewart and Chad Reed. Last year after 17 races they were the top two, with James the champion by four points over Chad.

To everyone's surprise, even their own, both are currently not racing - injured. They are watching what is essentially a 450 Supercross 'rookie' have a phenomenal year so far (Ryan Dungey).

A hidden treasure is not Ryan Dungey doing so well. I felt, as many others did, that he would have a great year. Based on the following: he's done well & won on a 450 before this season, all the confidence he had coming into this season from winning two championships in 2009 (the 250 West Lites Supercross, and the 250 AMA Outdoor Motocross) and his tremendous riding on a 450 for Team USA at the recent Motocross des Nations in Italy in October.

It's round 6 of the 2011 AMA Pro Motocross National Championships. This week - Buchanan, Michigan at Red Bud MX.

In the ' Motocross ' class, the big three are Chad Reed, Ryan Dungey, and Supercross Champion Ryan Villopoto. Those three riders are dominating the series (as far as winnning motos and races) compared to anyone else in the class.

In the 250 MX Lites class, Dean Wilson is the series points leader as the series will conclude it's halfway point by Saturday night. Second in points is teammate Tyla Rattray.

And, back in action this weekend, the Women's class - WMX. At the top you have Ashley Fiolek and Jessica Patterson, who seem to turn almost every moto into their own personal battle.

Could Saturday's racing be affected by mud and rain? Don't know yet, but the day before it's been raining quite hard here, with lots of thunder and lightning. Tomorrow's weather forecast - 90 degrees, with afternoon thunderstorms. We'll see about that ... Supercross.com will have race coverage of both the men's and women's classes
