Preview: Anaheim One – lets get it on!

Posted by Ray | 7 January 2010 | Comment

This weekend in sunny California the 2010 Monster Energy Supercross season will kick off at Angel Stadium, Anaheim for the 51st time.

The worlds best Supercross riders will be there setting their mantle for the rest of the season ahead. This year will also see an influx of non American riders trying to emulate Frenchman Christophe Pourcel’s season long performance of 2009.

We also have the return of Jason Lawrence after his stint in jail. Is he fit to race? Lets wait and see as all eyes will be on him for sure.

Britain’s Tommy Searle also makes his debut in USA Supercross, will the young Brit find himself racing upfront with established SX stars like Pourcel and Weimer – we hope so!

RacerX spent the day with the Red Bull supported riders at their facility in Catalina – James Stewart, Davi Millsaps and Josh Hill all look set to rock.

We also have the introduction of the brand new NIKE motocross boot which I must say could be huge for our sport – Both Stewart and Ryan Dungey will be strutting their stuff with the new product. Checkout the TransworldMX feature HERE.

Another rider looking to impress at Anaheim is Andrew Short, take a peek at his day in Catalina.

So what is the track like at Anaheim?

Remember Anaheim1 in 2009? No nor can we but lets hope these videos will refresh your memory.
