Angel Stadium in Anaheim hosts Second Annual Monster Energy Supercross Breast Cancer Awareness Race Saturday

Pink-themed supercross race to support the fight against breast cancer

Courtesy Feld Motorsports-Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship, heads to Anaheim's Angel Stadium this Saturday for its second annual PINK themed race in support of finding a cure for breast cancer. The PINK supercross race will help fund the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure 60-mile walk. With the season four races in, San Manuel Yamaha's James Stewart has assumed control of the points lead in the Supercross class with a win last weekend, while Pro Circuit/Monster Energy/Kawasaki's Broc Tickle earned his first win in the Western Regional Supercross Lites class, which puts him one point behind the division leader.

Last weekend before 44,394 fans at a rainy Oakland Coliseum, Monster Energy Kawasaki's Ryan Villopoto opened the main event by capturing the holeshot. Leading through two laps, Villopoto went down and lost his position to Stewart. Unfazed by a series of hard crashes earlier in the day, Stewart controlled this lead for the remaining 18 laps, registering his second victory of the season. This victory also moved Stewart into first place in the standings with a two point lead over Villopoto.

American Honda Racing Primed for 2011 Supercross Season

The start of the 2011 AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship, season is only weeks away. American Honda Racing's Trey Canard and Josh Grant are primed and ready to showcase their talents aboard Honda CRF450Rs at the opening round of the championship at Angel Stadium, Anaheim, CA on Saturday, January 8.

After months of hard work and careful preparation aboard his CRF450R, Canard is excited to get his first-full Supercross season underway.

"I can't wait to start racing Supercross" said Canard. "Switching from the Honda CRF250R to the CRF450R has been a relatively smooth transition and I've made it my focus to get in as much seat time on the bigger bike as possible over the past few months. Preparations are going according to plan and I'm ready to get the season started."

Grant will make his debut at Anaheim One and as he heads into the first race of the year, the talented racer is confident 2011 will be the definitive season in his career.
