2003 Steel City Chevy Trucks 125cc AMA Motocross Championship (Final Round)

This is the 11th and (unexpected) final round of the 2003 Chevy Trucks 125cc AMA Motocross Championship from Steel City Raceway in Delmont, PA.

Returning 125cc contenders like 125cc Sophomores Billy Laninovich and Eric Sorby, former 250cc riders Ryan Hughes and 5-time Arenacross champ Buddy Antunez, 2001 125cc MX champ Mike Brown, Grant Langston, 125cc East SX champ Branden Jesseman, Brock Sellards, Steve Boniface, Michael Byrne, Stephane Roncada, and defending (and 125cc West SX) champ James "Bubba" Stewart battle it out for the 2003 Chevy Trucks 125cc AMA Motocross Championship. After spending 2002 in retirement due to tons of concussions, Ryan Hughes makes a return to professional racing in the 125cc class for the first time since 1995, and his first pro season since 2001. The ESPN2 crew gets a front row seat to show us James Stewart's property. This is the last National for Warren "Duke" Finch as he announced he was stepping down as AMA head referee.

Originally, the Troy, OH race was SUPPOSED to be the final round of the season after severe floods forced a rescheduling after it originally preceded the Unadilla race, but the facility ended up being flooded again, which forced the AMA to cancel the race (and Ryan Hughes' last chance at winning his first Motocross championship that would've completed his career).

Enjoy.
