Practice has wrapped up at this year’s Daytona Supercross presented by Honda, and there was a surprise leader in the Supercross class heading into the night program: Boost Mobile/ampm/Monster’s Jason Lawrence. After posting the third fastest time of the class in the first round of practice sessions, Lawrence went out in his second non-seeded session and posted the overall quickest time in the SX class. Behind J-Law—with a 1:07.415 to Lawrence’s 1:06.998—was San Manuel Band of Mission Indians/Yamaha’s James Stewart. Red Bull Honda’s Davi Millsaps was third quickest in the class while Rockstar/Makita/Suzuki’s Chad Reed was fourth.
As it turned out, though, Lawrence almost didn’t get credited with the fastest time. Following each session, the AMA was conducting random sound tests and Lawrence’s bike was selected. With loud speakers playing music near the test area, though, the first test attempt was over the legal sound limit. Once the speakers were turned off and Lawrence’s YZ450F was re-tested, however, he passed.
In the Lites class, Monster/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki’s Christophe Pourcel was fastest with Star Racing/Yamaha’s Matt Lemoine second and Rockstar/Makita/Suzuki’s Nico Izzi third. Last week’s winner Austin Stroupe was fourth fastest.
Tonight’s race is live on SPEED Channel, so don’t forget to tune in. Also, check back later tonight for a full race report complete with results and photos.

Holy Sheeeeeeeeeet…JLaw FASTEST in qualifying???? I don’t hate the kid whatsoever, I like that he speaks his mind and attracts press (good and bad) to the industry, but I CAN’T believe he qualified fastest, that’s unreal! The smart money still says that Stewart and Reed will go 1-2 on the night…

The best race of the year! Hill threw down the best one footer I have ever seen! Jason Lawrence represented! Millsaps grew a set and slammed Alessi! Wow I just came! Oh and Reed took the points lead was cool too!

no, Troy ADams, look at the jersey
March 7th, 2009 at 10:30 pm
Haha honestly that was the best race, even Stewarts 7th place from not knowing what bike was his was incredible! Jlaw knew if he was in shape that race was his, you could tell it made him mad, awesome race though Jlaw, you proved what you bring to the table! Not too shabby for his first 450 race, eh? Go Reed, you earned it!

The haters still found something to bitch about at vital. “He should be DQD for cutting the track at the start” Some people are so ridiculous. JLaw is the man.
