We're delighted to announce that KTM Red Bull USA rider Ryan Dungey became KTM's and Raptor Titanium's first ever rider to win a 450 Main Event in an AMA 450 Supercross Main Event in last night's second round of the 2012 AMA Supercross in Phoenix, AZ.
Dungey got the hole shot and led every lap until the chequered flag after taking a convincing lead on the first lap and pulled away from the rest of the field for the remainder of the race after that.
Ryan Dungey and Ryan Villopoto of Monster Energy Kawasaki go into the third round tied first on points after securing a win and a third each, so there's all to play for as the respective 2010 and 2011 champions go into round 3 at Oakland, CA looking for the upper hand.
Geico Honda's veteran Kevin Windham, who is also on Raptor Titanium footpegs, put in a valiant effort finishing in fourth place in the Main Event as well.
