What a battle that the fans in Seattle were treated to in the 450SX Main Event last last night! Cooper Webb and Chase Sexton made sure that they had one of the closest finishes in SX history. It was an instant classic. Also, hometown hero Levi Kitchen had his best race of his young career that he will never forget.
THIS IS THE MOST RAIN THAT A SUPERCROSS SEASON HAS SEEN EVER, RIGHT? While the Seattle Supercross wasn’t a full blown mudder, weather played a part in the mushy track conditions, leading to a wild night of racing. Hats off to the Dirt Wurx guys for doing another incredible job. It was classic Seattle, really. Here’s a rundown of some of the biggest moments of the night.

Smith Crashes in 250SX Main Event
Jordon Smith crashed while in second place during the main event and he said he knocked the wind out of himself badly. He went to Instagram after the race to give everyone an update. Some people speculated on social media that Jordon hit his head and shouldn’t have been allowed back on the track. He fell two more times trying to regain the race. Smith said that he passed his concussion test and will be able to race next weekend at St. Louis.
