AMA Supercross is the pinnacle of American motorcycle racing. Since 1974, the best riders have fought it out on courses from January to early May each year.
In 2018, Jason Anderson finally beat out Ryan Dungey and Ryan Villopoto. The pair had taken home every title in the 450cc Class since 2010. Aaron Plessinger won the 250cc West and Zach Osborne repeated as 250cc East champ.
Fans are going wild this year as the championships this year are anyone’s for the taking. Cooper Webb out of Newport, North Carolina leads the 450 class while Adam Cianciarulo and Austin Forkner split the 250 classes.
One of the best parts of AMA Supercross is the easy accessibility of the races and the comfort. This is uncommon for racing fans but since AMA Supercross takes place on constructed dirt-road tracks inside stadium venues, it’s one of the best experiences a racing fan can enjoy.
