250 OVERALL QUALIFYING RESULTS // 2023 SAN DIEGO SUPERCROSS

The San Diego Supercross is here and it’s the second race of the 250 West Coast regional Supercross season. The 250 West division will race nine times this season, seven traditional West Coast Rounds and two East/West showdowns (East Rutherford, NJ, and the Salt Lake City finale). The Anaheim 1 Supercross was eventful for the 250 class. Unfortunately Troy Lee Designs GasGas rider Pierce Brown crashed in his Heat race and was out for the night and Austin Forkner crashed off the start in the 250 Main Event and injured his ACL. Thankfully, Pierce Brown is healthy and racing today in San Diego, but Forkner’s crash has sidelined him for the entire Supercross season.

Jett Lawrence won the A1 season opener and rain postponed Round 2 at Oakland. Now the series is ready to go in the brand new SnapDragon Stadium in San Diego. Scroll below to see the 250 Qualifying results, presented by Hoosier tires, as they come in from the SD SX.

250 OVERALL QUALIFYING RESULTS

Jett Lawrence charging with his feet on the pegs. His technique is always picture perfect. 

After the first round of qualifying, the track was rutted and gnarly, but they had a longer break between the first and second qualifying session which allowed the Dirt Wurx crew to groom the ruts and prep the track. With a smoother track, the riders were able to go faster and lay down the final qualifying times as they head into the night show.

Unfortunately for the C and B practice riders, the track had a few shadows on it as the sun began to set. However, the A practice, they were the lucky ones. The stadium lights turned on just in time for the 250 A practice, giving them the advantage of clearer vision of the track and ruts.

Like Anaheim 1, Jett Lawrence had a small mis-hap in the second qualifying session. Straight after the start of the practice, he hit a kicker going int the second turn and rolled over the berm into the tough blocks. Jett got up and was completely unscathed, but it was certainly funny to watch. At Anaheim 1 he also had a few crashes in practice, but he cleaned it all up for the Main Event.

250 QUALIFYING RESULTS (SESSION 1 OF 2)

Cameron McAdoo is the lone Pro Circuit Kawasaki rider this weekend with Austin Forkner injured. 

The track conditions are great today in Snapdragon stadium. Before the track walk, the Dirt Wurx crew actually had to water the track. There are some softer sections with ruts forming on the jumps and in some of the corners. However, the riders are still able to charge the track quite hard. Mitchell Oldenburg put down a fast lap mid-session on his MotoConcepts Honda and he led the practice with 5-mins to go before Cameron McAdoo had his time on top of the leader board. Then, it was the points leader Jett Lawrence who snagged the fastest time.
