Tight Supercross season closes out at Las Vegas

Ryan Villopoto ended his 2010 Supercross season on a stretcher, his leg mangled after a hard-to-watch crash at St. Louis.

A year later, he's on the verge of finishing off a cool comeback story, heading into this weekend's series finale in Las Vegas as the front-runner to win his first Supercross championship.

All Villopoto needs to do is get off to a good start, run near the front and stay on his bike.

The way this strange, jumbled season has gone, that could be tougher than it sounds.

"It's been gnarly because there's five guys that can win every race and you have to be on your game every weekend," Villopoto said "You just have to go out there and do nothing different, show up like it's a regular race."Story:
