Chad Reed And Yamaha Factory Supercross Team Are Looking To Dunk On The Competition In The Hoosier State

After competing in the Daytona Supercross last weekend, Chad Reed and the Monster Energy/Yamalube/Chaparral/Yamaha Financial Services/Yamaha Factory Racing Team head into the Hoosier State for Round 11 of the Monster Energy Supercross Championship.

For Chad, the Indianapolis Supercross is one of his favorite and most successful events. The two-time Supercross Champion has notched three career wins at Indy, including his very first Supercross victory on U.S. soil in 2002, along with back-to-back wins in 2008 and 2009. And he comes into Lucas Oil Stadium having just celebrated his birthday on Wednesday, so the fan favorite would like nothing better than to start his 34th year with a 450SX main event victory.

"I'm confident that I can win, but I just have to get back to my normal, consistent self. Also, I'm another year older this week, so maybe that'll help! I've got improved confidence behind the gate, and I can't wait to get to one of my favorite cities, to try to add another Indy trophy to my collection."

Chad's teammate Cooper Webb will miss the Indianapolis Supercross as he continues to recover from the shoulder injury he suffered at the Minneapolis Supercross. The latest word is that Cooper should return to racing next weekend at the Detroit Supercross.
