Tomac was first in timed

St. Louis, Dungey and Tomac
were separated by a scant seven

Dungey won his heat race
on his way to the main event,

champ for the lead early in the
race. Dungey took exception to

Tensions are high, and with
every race the championship is
getting tighter. Defending 450SX
Champion Ryan Dungey has
had a tough go of it for the past

four wins in a row as the series
headed to St. Louis. On top of

also couldn't stop his teammate
Marvin Musquin. Coming into
Dungey did what he
needed to do and that
was to get a good start
but he couldn't take
advantage of it.
