AMSOIL ARENACROSS CHAMPIONSHIP
VOL. 51 ISSUE 13 APRIL 1, 2014 P103
Briefly...
Long-time motocross and Super-
cross veteran, Team Faith KTM's
Kelly Smith announced his retire-
ment from the podium after his Lites
win. "I think this is it," Smith said of
his career. "It's been good and I want
to thank Team Faith for the last two
years here. I've had a great career,
but I need to walk away. I said it last
year, but now I know."
Several riders plan to race the re-
maining four rounds of Supercross
starting next weekend in Houston.
Kyle Regal says he has a 450 ride
on the Motosport.com Crossland
Honda Team and his Tuf Racing Ti-
Lube teammate says he'll be doing
some races on his 250. Woodstock
KTM's Travis Sewell will also be
racing aboard a 250, but Tyler Bow-
ers and Zach Ames are still unclear
as of what their plans are. "I want to
race Supercross, but we'll see what
happens," Ames said of his future.
"I'd only do it with my Babbitt's bike
or a good bike and support, not just
out of my truck on my dime." Bab-
bitt said of the possibility of riding a
couple of Supercross rounds: "As of
right now, I don't think so. I haven't
got any calls and it really hasn't been
discussed." He did say that he plans
to do some racing in Cost Rica this
summer.
