The wife and I went to St. Louis last night to watch the AMA Supercross and it was awesome!! It's the first one I've ever been to. She even enjoyed herself, which surprised me. There were 10 races total. The two classes were of course 125 and 250. Ricky Carmichael absolutely blew everyone away in both the preliminaries and the final race. He had at least a 20 second lead on the guy in second place. He ended up lapping the guys in 8th and 9th place at one point. It was truly amazing. All of those guys are talented, but Carmichael was just amazing. It makes me want to get into dirt bikes now.
I know it wouldn't be feasible considering where I live, but hey, it's a thought.
