Parramatta Stadium played host to an historic night of Supercross on Saturday evening with the international debut of the survival format bringing the crowd of over 15,000 to their feet, at the first night race of the Super X championship.

World champion Chad Reed once again found himself on the podium, but had to fight for it against current Australian Supercross champion Daniel Reardon.

The all new survival format had the packed-in crowd screaming for more with the 20 rider final slashed to 15, 10 and finally five through a series of 4 - five lap races. Four holeshots, two minutes only between each race, close racing and an extremely tight track all lead to the Sydney Super X event at Parramatta Stadium setting a new standard for adrenaline fueled Supercross racing.
