Forget Christmas and New Year’s, this week is the most exciting of the year for hardcore fans: it’s Anaheim 1 week! This year’s season-opener is especially anticipated, as all the talk of slashed budgets and economic woes finally steps aside for straight-up bench racing. And how many stories are there? You have the Stewart/Reed rematch, Ryan Villopoto’s second shot, Ryan Dungey’s rookie season, the return of Langston and Lawrence, Josh Hill’s second chance, Ivan Tedesco and tons of others switching teams, Grant, Short, Millsaps and Windham looking for more … there’s a lot to talk about. And don’t even get us started on the Lites classes!

With so much to discuss, Racer X Online is here as your Anaheim 1 headquarters. We’ll have special stuff here all week, with in-depth analysis and interviews, downloads, track maps, even an opportunity for free SX tickets with our TGI Freeday giveaway! Keep checking back all week, and you’ll know everything you need to know heading into the biggest weekend of the year!
