In the motocross main event, Ricky Carmichael and James Stewart battled it out and traded first place finishes in the two motos. Ben Townley and Ryan Villopoto did just the same in the Lites class. Ben came off with the overall win but Ben and Ryan traded first and second place finishes in the motos. From the looks of things the Eastern Division Lites champion (Ben) and the Western Division Lites champion (Ryan) will not dissapoint in what looks to be a good battle for supremacy in the camp of Monster/Kawasaki.
