just watching the lites racing on tv and shit i reckon it so much better to watch than the higher class.
its close racing and they go hard.
i think some of it might be because i'm not than much of a fan of Reed.
Dan Reardon is going bloody well for his first season in the lites.
what do you guys think?

As I said earlier mate I agree 100 percent, Would be a different story if bubba was racing, Seems to always be the case that one of the big names will be sitting out due to injury, it sucks. Bring on the outdoors!!

I don't find the SX very interesting at all. Might be different if BT was racing. The outdoors is where its really at in my opinion. In the outdoors last year the Lites class was way more interesting with BT and RV going at it all season. Would tune out for the MX class which was boring until the last races when RC and Bubba were out of contention.

In my opinion the lites class has allways been better, even in the world mx championship also. It blows me away how a 250f with a good rider on board can been as little as 1 sec a lap slower than a 450f on the AMA supercross tracks.
Although i really enjoyed the 450 class in the world mx last year with lots of riders who were previously on 250f's that had moved up,it really made for good racing.
The supercross lites class this year has been awesome, especially round two. Hopefully Austin Stroupe can pull a win out of the bag sometime.
Roll on Saturday, i am so looking forward to the Manukau supercross :clap:

I listened to the San Diego round live yesterday afternoon, Reed went down while in the lead with only about five laps remaining and had to work hard to pass Davi Millsaps (who has ridden brilliantly all year) back for the lead. So that should at least be an interesting 450 class race to watch!
