The Lites class podium enjoys a nice, cool late-afternoon podium ceremony. Sandwiching winner Ryan Dungey are 2006 FIM MX2 World Champion Christophe Pourcel and the current 2008 FIM MX2 World Champion Tyla Rattray. That’s an impressive cadre of up and coming talent right there, folks, and getting them all on the same track at the same time – not to mention the plethora of similarly talented riders who finished just behind them – was quite a treat to witness. Throw in the fact that this was by all accounts the roughest Glen Helen track ever, and it was one heck of a show.
