MNSS RACER RYAN VILLOPOTO DOMINATES WITH HIS 2ND WIN OF THE 2013 SUPERCROSS SEASON AT OAKLAND SX
The Sports Syndicate’s Ryan Villopoto raced to his second-consecutive Monster Energy AMA Supercross 450SX Class Main Event win at O.co Coliseum before a record crowd of 46,896. Villopoto jumped out to an early lead, scoring the Nuclear Cowboyz Holeshot Award. By Lap 3, Villopoto established a 7-second lead which he increased to over 10 seconds before the checkered flag on his way to a first place finish. “The points race is what we are going after, and winning the holeshot gives you a great advantage,” said Villopoto. “We made some changes to the bike today that I think really helped us out there tonight, so hats off to my team. It is a long season, and we are going to keep plugging away.” Monster Energy Supercross will continue on February 2, at Angel Stadium in Anaheim, CA.
