Anyone watch this? I'm watching it right now and it's been between McGrath and Ben Bostrom. Bostrom wears him out on the road course and McGrath hurts him on the dirt. Eddie Seal comes out of nowhere and get's by McGrath and starts chasing down Bostrom. There riding on dirtbikes with slicks. I know one or two are using KTM's, not sure what the rest are using. Of course no XB's. When Bostrom hits the roard course he just expands his lead. Seal shot by McGrath on the road course. Pretty fun to watch. I'd love to see Bostrom or Seal use an XB doing this. Bostrom is holding the lead, but Seal looks like he's gaining a little.

Evidently what helps Bostrom is that he is also an exceptional Dirt Bike rider as well. Evidently he and his brother spend a lot of time offroading.

Right now it's all Bostrom and Seal.

Damn, Bostrom just lost control, went down and now he's second and has to chase Eddie Seal down.

Man, you talking about some pretty good racing. That last two laps was fun to watch. Bostrom caught Seal and forced Seal wide in the first road hairpin, allowing him to get by and go on to take the Gold. Seal took second and McGrath took 3rd. Fun race to watch.

Ben Bostrom wins Gold in the first ever X Games Super Moto Race.
