Last week after his win at the final round of the season at Anaheim, Stewart said that he wanted to be as close as possible to the points lead as the series headed to the East coast, and he accomplished that goal. Now wel see what happens as we head to the relative safety (at least where weather is concerned) of domed stadiums for five of the next six races. There was some concern about the weather heading in San Diego, but fortunately the riders and fans were spared any of the precipitation that visited Anaheim last week. <<<<Copy below link TO WATCH LIVE>>>>> http://unlimitedsupercrossliveonline.blogspot.com/2012/02/watch-ama-supercross-san-diego-2012_09.html http://unlimitedsupercrossliveonline.blogspot.com/2012/02/watch-ama-supercross-san-diego-2012_09.html http://unlimitedsupercrossliveonline.blogspot.com/2012/02/watch-ama-supercross-san-diego-2012_09.html http://unlimitedsupercrossliveonline.blogspot.com/2012/02/watch-ama-supercross-san-diego-2012_09.html Something cool to see in San Diego was the return of two riders who been MIA, making a talent-laden field even tougher. Yamaha Factory Racing Broc Hepler was back in action after crashing and breaking a collarbone during practice at A1. Also, Rockstar Makita Suzuki got Michael Byrne back for the first time this year after a pre-season wrist injury. Both riders made the main event, and Byrne was particularly surprising, finishing second in his heat race. Michael also had a top ten (eighth-place) finish, but unfortunately, Broc Hepler had a hard crash at the three-quarter mark of the main event, which left him sidelined for the remainder of the main event. Here hoping thate healthy enough to return for next weekend.
