2018 SAN DIEGO SUPERCROSS | BEST IN THE PITS PETCO PARK
This weeks ” Best in the Pits” gallery comes to you from beautiful downtown San Diego for round six of the Monster Energy Supercross series.
We wouldn’t try to steal any posters from the KTM truck. This guy may get you.
This weekend is a Military Appreciation race. Some teams like Rocky Mountain ATVMC WPS KTM dedicated their bikes to the nations troops.
If you look closely, the guys at Red Bull KTM added a little flare to their weekend livery with the camp in the graphics.
In recent weeks, we haven’t really shown the KTM Juniors any love. So, here we go! Check out this tricked out little KTM 50SX. Six year old Callie Sutton will be piloting this machine tomorrow night.
Imagine having one of these FMF Racing mufflers just waiting in your garage.
Jason Anderson will lead the points again this weekend in the 450 class aboard his Husky FC450.
It’s all in the details. Won’t be long until we see this guy out there.
Dean Wilson looks to put the 15 machine on top tonight.
We’re pretty sure social media blew up after Chad Reed posted this online. Up close, his FC450 is a beaut.
An anodized blue shock spring ads some color to CR22’s livery.
Pro Circuit added a nice camo touch to the Ti-6 Pro exhaust system.
Justin Hill’s ride for the night?
We haven’t seen much of this guy lately.
Black RG3 forks make the JGR RM-Z250’s look even cleaner.
Aaron Plessinger will also hold on to his red plates in Dallas, but it he was close to losing it after crashing in San Diego.
Factory team details are the best kind of details.
Ironically, its not all that often you see the riders number on the clutch case nowadays.
The only rider that went all out with patriotism was Casey Brennan.
We like this look.
The Pro Circuit bikes are always a contender for “Best in the Pits.”
Adam Cianciarulo is going to have his night, but it wasn’t in San Diego. Close, but no cigar.
Josh Grant had another tough night as he was just out of the top ten.
Mechanics like to put a thin piece of foam between the peg and brake to keep dirt, sand, mud or candy bar wrappers from jamming the rear brakes or foo tpeg.
Eli Tomac’s cutom Bell Moto-9 Flex didn’t even get sweaty in the 450 main as he was an innocent victim of a first turn crash.
Haters will say, “its photoshopped.”
Ken Roczens HRC Honda CRF450 machine was in a first turn crash and then got into a scuffle with Cooper Webb in the main. Ken Roczen paid Webb back for an a percieved slight, but Kenny go the worst of the crash.
Odds are we won’t be seeing the number 94 bike on the track very soon—but you never know, because we are talking about Ken Roczen.
