The Anaheim 3 SX came and went last Saturday night, but not without making history and leaving everyone wanting more. The history that was made was once again by the Austrian motorcycle manufacturer KTM. Last year, they won their first-ever 450SX main event at a Monster Energy Supercross, and at Anaheim 3, they bettered that by sweeping both the 250SX main event (Ken Roczen) and the 450SX main event (Ryan Dungey) for the first time in history. To say that KTM is now a major player in the U.S. MX and SX scene would be an understatement.

In the lap-time competition, though, it was the 250SX rider—who finished 2nd to Ken Roczen—with the fastest overall time of the night for all classes. Martin’s 53.117 bested all 250’s and 450’s, but to be fair, the track was very different. Not only was the track a lot smoother for the 250’s, but rain also fell throughout the 450 main event, creating a very slick race track. Still, with the slick conditions Dungey—who had the fastest 450SX time—was only a tick off the top 250’s with a 53.236. Roczen’s average lap of 54.162 was the fastest overall average lap tap, just edging out his Red Bull/KTM teammate Dungey who averaged 54.349.

Check out our newly improved lap charts below to see how both main events played out plus how the 250SX Class and 450SX Class stacked up against each other.

On the left of each graph, you will notice the lap times and the numbers on the bottom signifying each lap. Below that, we have the top five riders in the order they finished and each lap time from the main event after their name. Also, note that each rider’s fastest lap is shaded in blue at the end of the graph, followed by their average lap time. You can run your cursor over the lines to see which rider they signify.
