Having started off the night with a heat race win and advancing directly to the main, Josh Grant was all set to make a run at the East Championship. Going into this final round in Houston Josh was the only other rider with a chance at taking the championship from the points leader, Millsaps. Josh was almost guaranteed second place overall if all went well. But just when you think everything is going smooth, well, sometimes a monkey wrench gets thrown in the spokes and all hell breaks loose! In this case, the "monkey wrench" hit the "spokes" when Josh collided with another rider on the first lap of the main, resulting in a hole in the side of his engine and a DNF, therefore ending his chance at the championship and costing him second in the points standings.

Josh’s misfortune sucks, but it was a great night for his etnies SoBe/Samsung/Honda teammate, Tommy Hahn, who rode to second place behind Millsaps, his best showing this season.

Also, big congratulations to etnies Team Green rider Teddy Maier who placed eighth place overall in the East series points in his first year of racing Supercross. Check out his interview in Racer X from last month. What about Boost Mobile/Yamaha of Troy pilot Branden Jesseman took fifth overall!

etnies riders take 3 of the top 5 spots in the East Lites!
