Jordon Smith captured the first Supercross main event of his career March 25th at Ford Field in Detroit. The 3rd year pro had to get through the LCQ before making a great start in the main event. After taking the lead he held off a hard charging Joey Savatgy on the last lap.
With the win Jordon becomes the first rider to win the LCQ and main event since Ivan Tedesco in 2003 and propels him into 2nd place for the series, 9 points behind leader Joey Savatgy and 1 point ahead of Zach Osborne with three races remaining.
Our other Pro SX riders are doing well also. Anthony Rodriguez has four top 10's while Lorenzo Locurcio has made 5 out of 6 main events with a 6th place best finish.
Dakota Alix has made 5 of 6 mains but has had the worst luck getting out of the first turn, despite being up front almost every time. Keith Tucker made his first main in Detroit finishing 17th and Canadian Cole Thompson, who has been training at MTF this Winter, has made 4 mains out of his 5 events.
