Reed delivers Discount Tire Racing first victory of 2014
For immediate release: 19 January 2014

Discount Tire Racing/TwoTwo Motorsports Chad Reed has raced to an emotional victory at the third round of the 2014 AMA Supercross at Anaheim’s Angel Stadium.
The win, which was Reed’s 42nd in the premier class and his first in 22 starts, sees him match Jeremy McGrath and James Stewart with eight wins at Angel Stadium.
Reed, who was sixth on the opening lap of the race, proved he was back to his best, moving to fourth on Lap 7 of the 20-lap final. The Australian got around Round 1 winner Ken Roczen on Lap 14 and then sailed past race career long rival James Stewart to take the race lead with three laps remaining.
“This win was a long-time coming and I worked way too hard to get it. My other race wins came a lot easier,” Reed said.
“Last year was just so gnarly, in the fact that I was just emotional week in, week out. We just made so many changes and when you’re 31 you’re the old guy out there and start to second guess yourself a bit.
“That was when I just knuckled down, made the choices that I felt were right and I’m very, very thankful to Discount Tire for sponsoring the program and allowing me to do what I love to do.
“I am so proud of my team and I really want to thank everyone for sticking with me,” Reed added.
Earlier in the night Reed was honoured in champions parade to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Supercross.
Reeds win sees him move to third in the Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship standings with 57 points, just three points shy of series leader Ken Roczen.

Monster Energy Supercross Celebrates 40 Years This Weekend in Anaheim

Monster Energy Supercross Celebrates 40 Years This Weekend in Anaheim

Villopoto and Anderson Sit Atop Championship Standings, as all 22 Champions from the Last 40 Years Will be in Anaheim

AURORA, Ill. (January 15, 2014) – Feld Motor Sports^® announced today that Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship, will celebrate its 40^th anniversary this Saturday, January 18, as the world’s best riders return to Anaheim, Calif., and Angel Stadium for the third race of the 2014 season.

The 40^th Anniversary Celebration Race will honor the champions of both past and present, in addition to celebrating the nostalgia and illustrious history of this one-of-a-kind sport. The track inside Angel Stadium will mimic the layout from the 2001 season, which signified the changing of the guard from one legend to another as Ricky Carmichael won his very first 450SX Class title and Jeremy McGrath completed his final full season of competition, winning one final time in Anaheim to set the landmark record of 72 victories.

The action from Anaheim kicks off Saturday, live on FOX Sports 1 at 10:30 p.m. ET .Media day is Thursday, January 16, from Noon-2:00 p.m. locally (PT). Supercross legends Pierre Karsmakers, Jimmy Ellis, Jeff Ward, Donnie Hansen and Johnny O’Mara will join Red Bull KTM riders Dungey, the 2010 Monster Energy Supercross Champion, and Ken Roczen, the winner of the first race of the 2014 season, at the pre-race press conference

Last weekend in front of nearly 50,000 fans inside Phoenix’s Chase Field, reigning three-time 450SX Class Champion Ryan Villopoto captured his first win of the 2014 season aboard his Monster Energy Kawasaki. Villopoto worked hard for his victory, passing eight riders en route to the lead and taking over the early points lead in doing so. Coming into Anaheim, Villopoto carries a slim one-point advantage over longtime rival and Red Bull KTM rider Ryan Dungey.

On the track in Phoenix last Saturday night, Toyota/Yamaha/N-Fab/JGRMX’s Justin Brayton turned heads with the best performance of his career. Brayton took over the early lead from Yoshimura Suzuki’s Matt Moss and held on to it for 13 laps, fending off the challenges of both Dungey and Team Honda Muscle Milk’s Justin Barcia before ultimately giving way to Villopoto late in the Main Event. Brayton pressured Villopoto on the final lap and almost made the pass that would have given him his first career win, but settled for duplicating his career-best finish of second.

“This feels so good,” said Brayton on the podium. “The new Yamaha is unbelievable. We did our homework this year. It’s been a lot of hard work, but being up [on the podium] pays off. I was trying to pay attention to what was going on behind me but still look ahead. I did all I could to stay up front, but Ryan (Villopoto) got by me.”

Villopoto began his Main Event in ninth place after getting shuffled towards the back in the first turn off the start. He immediately went to work on moving towards the front and passed his biggest challengers along the way in order to achieve his first win in Phoenix.

“Justin was riding a hell of a race,” said Villopoto on the podium. “I have to give it to him, he made it tough. I didn’t get the start I wanted because the [starting] gate was slippery, but I just needed to be patient. The Phoenix [track] gets really slick so I had to take my time and make sure my passes stuck.”

Dungey finished third, posting back-to-back podium results through the first two races.

In the Western Regional 250SX Class Main Event, MyPlash/Metal Mulisha/Star Racing Yamaha’s Cooper Webb grabbed his first career holeshot and led his first professional race before getting passed by both Cole Seely aboard his Troy Lee Designs/Lucas Oil Honda and Rockstar Energy Racing’s Jason Anderson.

Much like the opening race in Anaheim, Seely paced the field throughout the majority of the Main Event and appeared to be on his way to victory. However, as he navigated lapped riders in the late stages of the race, Seely’s advantage over Anderson shrunk dramatically. This allowed Anderson to close in on Seely’s rear fender on the final lap and make a last-lap pass for the win for the second-straight week.

“I was out for redemption tonight,” said Anderson, who failed to qualify for the Main Event in Phoenix the year prior. “I got a good start on my KTM, like I have been all season. I don’t plan on those last-lap passes, but it was there and I needed to take it. My goal is to keep control of the red number plate [signifying the points leader] so I’ll do whatever it takes to do that. I really want it.”

Anderson and Seely were joined on the podium by GEICO Honda’s Zach Osborne, which duplicated the top three finishers from the first race.

Anderson has won three of his last four Western Regional 250SX Class Main Events dating back to last season and carries a six-point lead over Seely into Anaheim.

Angel Stadium has played host to 61 races in the 450SX Class and 52 Western Regional 250SX Class races. Monster Energy Supercross has sold out Angel Stadium 28 times since the 1999 season when it began hosting multiple races in the championship.

The first race held in Anaheim was on December 4, 1976, and Mart Smith won on a Honda. This weekend will mark the 62^nd time the gate will drop for a 450SX Class race in Anaheim and the 24^th time the city has played host to the season opener. James Stewart, Ricky Carmichael and Jeremy McGrath are tied on the all-time 450SX Class win list at Anaheim with 8 victories. Ivan Tedesco holds the 250SX Class all-time win record in Anaheim with 5 victories. Angel Stadium is the only stop on the tour that will host three races – January 4, January 18 and February 1.

Tickets are available at the Angel Stadium Box Office, all Ticketmaster outlets, charge by phone (800) 745-3000, or online at www.SupercrossOnline.com or www.ticketmaster.com. Practice and qualifying begin at 12:30 p.m. and the Main Event starts at 7:00 p.m. Supervalue seats start at $20. Fans can also get in to the Pits for FREE from 12:30-6 p.m. Race Day when they recycle a MONSTER Energy Can at the stadium’s pit entrance (valid only with event ticket).

Dragon Releases NFXs Goggle

Courtesy of Dragon Optical

Carlsbad, CA - Following the success of the NFX frameless goggle, Dragon is proud to release the NFXs. This goggle packs all of the premium features of the original NFX into a slightly smaller size. Now those with smaller helmets, kids, mountain bike helmets or any helmet with a smaller goggle opening will more easily accommodate the Dragon NFXs.

The NFX, and now its predecessor, came to fruition after countless hours of testing and design. The challenge to create a better motocross goggle was accepted by the Dragon team and they knocked it out of the park. The NFX and NFXs provides superior peripheral vision compared to any other motocross goggle on the market. The frameless technology provides the rider with a fuller, clearer field of vision, which improves both rider performance and safety. The NFX and NFXs also boast Dragon's patented slant quad foam design, for maximum sweat absorption, coupled with a hypoallergenic micro-fleece lining.

With the patented frameless design of the NFX / NFXs changing lenses is no longer a daunting, time-consuming task. Dragon's anti-fog lenses clip directly on in a matter of seconds instead of being tediously shoehorned between the channels of a traditional frame.

"Dragon keeps raising the bar in the goggle market and I'm excited to be a part of it," explains Rockstar/KTM rider Davi Millsaps. "I've used a lot of different goggles over the course of my career and the Dragon NFXs is by far the best I've used."

The Dragon NFX and NFXs are available in a multitude of lens options and each goggle comes with an additional bonus lens and a protective goggle bag. Dragon's Rapid Roll system is also available for wet or muddy conditions. Visit your local Dragon dealer to see the new NFX or visit www.dragonalliance.com. Was this post helpful?

2014 MX for Children and Monster Energy Supercross Team Up for Supercross Dream Room Makeover

New Volunteer Effort to Remodel Bedroom of Chronically Ill Child

AURORA, Ill. (January 13, 2014) - Feld Motor Sports^® and MX for Children announced today the MX for Children Supercross Dream Room Makeover, a new charity event for 2014 that will coincide with the Seattle stop of Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship, on April 12. This collaborative effort between Feld Motor Sports and MX for Children will enhance the quality of life for a chronically ill child who is also a fan of Monster Energy Supercross. One child will be selected to receive a complete bedroom makeover themed with Monster Energy Supercross scenes and paraphernalia. 

Volunteers will work to design and build the Monster Energy Supercross-themed bedroom before the stop at Seattle’s CenturyLink Field.

The selected child will be interviewed by local media during the week prior to Seattle Supercross (April 7) and will be offered an opportunity to participate in MX for Children’s Inside Line Experience. MX for Children and Feld Motor Sports believe this effort will bring joy and excitement into the life of a sick child in the Seattle area.

MX for Children’s Inside Line Experience is a Monster Energy Supercross exclusive with a unique, multi-day behind the scenes look at the sport. The Dream Room Makeover recipient will participate in a “Meet and Greet” with top Monster Energy Supercross racers in a private, informal atmosphere for autographs and pictures. On race day, the selected child will tour factory rigs, walk the Monster Energy Supercross track and enjoy the race with great seats!

MX for children will be searching the Seattle area community for volunteers and sponsors to help design and develop the child’s room into a special safe haven from the difficulties of illness. For more information on MX for Children or to volunteer, please visit www.mxforchildren.org.
