“Just seeing everyone for the first time and everyone has a good vibe going into the new supercross season.” |
“Anaheim 1 meant a lot to me because I had a lot of family that came over from Ireland . The racing was also good especially the Stewart/Carmichael battle. It was awesome! And Villopoto really impressed me the way he attacked the race track.” |

| “The racing was unbelievable especially when Stewart went down, came back, and then did his “Bubba scrub” and passed RC.” |
“It would have to be when James scrubbed the jump in the back section to pass Ricky. I’ve never seen anything like that!” |
