Scenes from the Supercross track walk

It's a humid, overcast day at Daytona International Speedway as the AMA Supercross teams gear up for the Daytona Supercross by Honda.

Several riders say the Daytona track looks like the best Supercross course of the season, while a few others took note of the massive whoops that dominate the back straight or discussed how the soft-terrain track will evolve through a day of practice, heats and racing.

One thing's for certain, everyone is looking forward to watching Makita Suzuki's Ricky Carmichael, Kawasaki's James Stewart and Yamaha's Chad Reed battle it out on what should be the fastest Supercross track of the year.

Hey, Ben, we know your GSX-R has a new Showa fork this year, but it's probably not enough for the double.
