Supermoto racers waiting to get on the track for practice.

Supermoto combines Road Racing, Supercorss and Flat Track into one event.

All the factory teams were there including KTM Racing.

This 180 degree turn into a jump came at the end of a 100+ MPH straightaway.

The ageless Jeff Ward takes the platform during pre-race introductions.

At 45 Ward is racing 19 and 20 year olds and as of the Nashville round was leading in points! Pretty incredible for a guy who is older than I am.

Racing on "slicks" makes the dirt portion of the track pretty critical.

Speeds in excess of 100 MPH are common on the straightaways.

This guy was laying into the corners so hard that sparks would fly from his foot pegs.

Here's the same guy leading a couple others into another corner.

Ward's helmet. He races for the Troy Lee Designs Honda team.

This is Ward's bike. They put heated covers on the tires in the pit to keep them warm.

This guy won the first Supermoto for the Graves Yamaha Team.

Supermoto is exciting to watch. If you missed it, plan now to go next year.

A couple of laps after this photo this guy landed hard on the main jump and went over the handlebars onto the pavement. He walked away but apparently suffered a fractured wrist.
