Team AMSOIL Supercross rider Kevin Windham has not experienced much success during the current AMA Supercross series. While the veteran entered the weekend sixth overall in the "Supercross" class, he had not been able to place his powerful Honda 450, four stroke on the podium in 2007. That changed last weekend in San Diego.Windham quietly turned in his best performance of the season. K-Dub started the race in fourth and made a pass for third in the opening laps of the race. From there the Mississippi native rode confidently to his first podium finish of 2007. Teammate Travis Preston finished 10th in the main. The third place finish moves Windham into fourth in the season standings, while Preston dropped down to sixth.
In the "Lites" class, Josh Grant was looking for his third straight podium. Instead, a crash curtailed the young riders hopes. Grant would finish 13th while teammate Jake Wiemer finished in seventh. After seven rounds on the West Coast Lites series, Wiemer is currently in third while Grant is sitting in fifth. Grant and Wiemer won't be riding again until the West Coast series returns on April 28 in Seattle. The East Coast Lites class, along with the Supercross class, will be in Atlanta, Ga. next weekend.
