ROUND 2 / JANUARY 13, 2024
ORACLE PARK / SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA
SUPERCROSS I MONSTER ENERGY AMA SUPERCROSS SERIES / SUPERMOTOCROSS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
P48
7 AARON PLESSINGER
5TH 450SX
It was back-to-back top fives for
Aaron Plessinger, who qualified first
and doesn't mind when things get
muddy. "The start of the main was
horrible," he said. "I spun off the grate
but made it through with all the guys
on the ground—don't know how I did
that. I lost goggles about mid-way,
and I just did what I could to fortu-
nately get back to fifth. We got some
good points, sitting P4 now in the
points."
34 RYDER DIFRANCESCO
18TH 250SX WEST
Ryder Difrancesco took his first
heat race victory but struggled with
a mechanical in the main event. "It
was a good night here until it wasn't!"
DiFrancesco said. "All day, I felt good
in the mud; I don't know where that
comes from—maybe Bakersfield when
it's muddy, but that's once a year. It
was good to get my first heat race
win, which is a cool feeling! We have
a bunch of stuff to work on, but good
thing we get to line up again next
weekend."
MYOWNRACE
Eli Tomac rebounded
nicely after his less-
than-stellar start to the
season last week.
