250 Lites West Main Event
It was Raptor Titanium's Jason Anderson of Rockstar Energy Suzuki who took the holeshot ahead of fellow Raptor Titanium sponsored rider Marvin Musquin of KTM Red Bull USA and then Pro Circuit Kawasaki's Dean Wilson who was in the hunt for the title. Our sponsored rider Eli Tomac of Geico Honda did not get the best start but within the first few laps had worked his way through the pack and, in a risky manoeuvre, passed Musquin in the first turn sweeper and through the rhythm section.
For the next several laps Tomac continued to gain on Wilson with the crowd on its feet for antoher battle. Finally on lap eight, Tomac was able to force the pass just after the first rhythm section but was not content to stop there. Up to this point, Anderson had held a very comfortable lead, but slowly began to tighten up as the laps clicked off. With so many mistakes, it wasn't long before Tomac was right behind him.
After a few laps of reeling in Anderson, Tomac was able to make the pass to take over the lead. At that point, Wilson rode in third place but that was not the end of the race. In the closing laps, Wilson made a big error through the second whoop section, dropping the front end and cartwheeling into the face of the finish line jump. Tomac not only took the win, but with Wilson dropping out of the race, he also was able to claim his first West Supercross Lites Championship. Anderson finished second with his team-mate and fellow Raptor Titanium sponsored rider Martin Davalos third. Raptor Titanium riders rounded out the top five with Tomac's team-mate Wil Hahn in fourth and Musquin in fifth.

450 Supercross Main Event
JGR Yamaha's Davi Millsaps took the early lead ahead of our sponsored rider Ryan Dungey of KTM Red Bull USA and then the injured 2012 Supercross Champion's team-mate Jake Weimer of Monster Energy Kawasaki in third. Weimer did not wait long to make his move on Dungey, forcing his way infront of the KTM rider on the second lap. While Millsaps seemed to have a clear lead, the duo of Weimer and Dungey continued to close on the leader.
At the mid-way point Dungey made a pass on Weimer through the first turn sweeper and made it stick for a short period of time. However, two turns later, Weimer made a text book block/stuff pass on Dungey, taking the number five machine down before the whoops.
Millsaps continued to ride out front but Dungey was not ready to let the lead pack go. After shaking off the fall, Dungey recollected himself and went back on a charge. First he reeled in and passed Weimer on lap 15. Then he went on to stalk, catch, and pass Millsaps just before the last lap due to Millsaps getting caught up in some lapped traffic. With the crowd on its feet, Dungey was able to take a surprise, come-from-behind win ahead of Millsaps and Weimer in third. Motoconcept's Suzuki rider and Raptor Titanium's Mike Alessi grabbed a very respectable fifth place.
