The MDK KTM Teams were eager to perform in front of the final Anaheim crowd for the 5th round of the AMA Supercross Series. To start the night off right, MDK KTM Factory Team manager Steve Lamson, was honored by the Anaheim crowd when he and fellow veteran racer Damon Huffman took a parade lap around the track. Then the opening ceremonies began and it was time for the heats.
MDK KTM Factory rider Nick Wey, fresh off his best finish at last weeks San Francisco round, was "Ready to Race" at the gate drop for his Supercross class heat. Wey had a mid-pack start and was able to break into the top five to easily transfer into the main.
In the Supercross main Wey got a good jump but got pushed back to the bottom of the top ten. He battled around 9th and 10th place for a while before moving into 8th. He managed to hold off the hard-charging riders behind him and finished 8th for the evening.
