250 East 15 lap Main Event
It was Raptor Titanium sponsored rider Justin Barcia who again took the holeshot followed by fellow Raptor Titanium sponsored riders Ken Roczen and Blake Wharton.
Roczen was not ready to let Barcia go this time around, as he was able to overtake first place briefly until he made a mistake going through the rhythm section which allowed Barcia to come back and take back the lead.
The defending champ took advantage of the opportunity by putting some distance between himself and the German World Champion.
Meanwhile Wharton began losing ground to Pro Circuit Kawasaki's Blake Baggett, who was the fastest qualifier of the day. The Kawasaki rider was eventually able to take over third place and set his sights upon Roczen in second. As the laps wore on the lead grew and shrunk but Roczen was able to hold his ground.
On the final lap, Barcia was clearly well out in front and looked to have his sixth win of the season locked up until the number one machine had a run in with a lapped rider, Lance Vincent, and went down with only three turns remaining. Roczen took full advantage of the mistake and took the lead and the victory while Barcia was able to remount for second. Baggett rounded out the podium and Wharton and Phil Nicoletti completed the top five.

450 Supercross 20 lap Main Event
Davi Millsaps snatched another holeshot and was able to secure another great start ahead of Villopoto and Raptor Titanium's Mike Alessi.
James Stewart meanwhile did not get the greatest of starts and seemed to struggle with other riders in the opening laps. While Villopoto quickly began to put distance between himself and Millsaps, Stewart slowly began to make his way through the pack and remained unchallenged and secured the win and the 2012 AMA Supercross title with four rounds still to go.
Raptor Titanium's Mike Alessi got an excellent result finishing in fourth place and Raptor Titanium and Star Valli Yamaha rider Nico Izzi had a great race with an eight place finish.
