Jeremy Mcgrath: A Championship Supercross Racer

Jeremy Mcgrath

Jeremy McGrath is a California born man, who is most well-known for his supercross motorcycle racing skills.  Jeremy McGrath is most well known to those in the supercross motorcycle racing community, but his name and fame is so wide spread that you have likely heard of him before, even if you are not a supercross motorcycle racing. Although Jeremy McGrath accomplished a lot with supercross racing, he is, perhaps, most well-known for his rookie season.

He was the first rookie racer to win the 250cc Supercross Championship. Jeremy McGrath went on to set even more records.  He, currently, is known as having the most wins at supercross events, namely the main events.

Like many racers, including supercross motorcycle riders, Jeremy McGrath has made a number of career moves. When McGrath started in supercross motorcycle racing, he was with Team Suzuki.  After a hard year, Jeremy McGrath made the switch to Team Yamaha. That team switch came in 1998.

The switch to Yamaha racing proved lucky, unlike his highly publicized move to Suzuki in 1997, it proved to be a good move.  In fact, Jeremy McGrath later went on to with the Supercross Championship in 1998.  This allowed him to focus solely on his supercross racing career, which in turn lead to even more wins.  However, in 2003, Jeremy McGrath made the decision to retire from supercross motorcycle racing.

Although McGrath chose to retire from supercross motorcycle racing, in 2003, it appeared as if he just could not let the sport go.  He later returned in 2005.  His return caused excitement in the hearts of many fans; however, his return was only on a limited basis. When he did return, he returned with his old team. That team was Team Honda. Honda, Jeremy McGrath, and their other sponsors have worked to create the Jeremy McGrath Invitational.  It is also expected to be a big event because the payout, otherwise known as a purse, is $500,000, the largest cash purse, ever, in supercross motorcycle racing.  The race will be broadcasted at a later date.
