Team Rockstar Makita Suzuki's Ryan Dungey Scores a Fourth Place Finish at Indy Supercross
Team Rockstar Makita Suzuki’s Ryan Dungey rode strong in a fast-paced race aboard his Yoshimura-equipped Suzuki RM-Z450 in front of a crowd of 60,789 fans at the 10th round of the 2011 AMA/FIM Supercross Championship at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, IN. Teammate Brett Metcalfe did not race in order to recover from his recent crashes in Atlanta and Daytona. Metcalfe is expected to return to action at next week’s event in Jacksonville, FL.

Dungey rode solid in practice and his heat race, crossing the line in fourth place. His Suzuki powered him out of the gate in the main and put him right up to the front, in fourth position. Dungey was able to work his way up to third by lap two and maintained that position until the ninth lap, where he attempted a pass for second and went down after making contact with the second-place rider. Dungey remounted in fourth and made a hard charge on his RM-Z, eventually catching back up to third, but was unable to make the pass and settled for a fourth-place finish.
