    Jeremy is a stand up guy. He came to the great american hill climb in billings and took second overall. It was unbelievable. I got his autograph n talked to him. He is the greatest motorcycle racer of all time

    I was 12 years old. This was the year I got into motocross and what a season to get into the sport! It was one for the ages. Jeremy was on another planet. It's was dominance in every sense of the word. Those guys had to resort to throwing the kitchen sink at Jeremy. It's was so fun to watch as a kid. He was and still is my HERO!

    I'll never forget when I first got to meet him in 91 at the LORETTA LYNN'S when he rode for Team Peak Honda and than after I met him every year after that at ATLANTA SUPERCROSS and he would always take the time and sign everything I had and talk to me it was AWESOME and he gave me one of his 96 Honda JERSEY and one of his 98 Yamaha Jerseys and in 98 I had the chance to buy his 97 Troy RM250 that he used in the STEEL ROOTS VIDEO IT was at the Troy shop in Dayton OHIO but didn't have the money. He is a TRUE LEGEND AND A TRUE KING

    I saw Japan Super Cross in 1995. McGrath won, but showed off Superman at freestyle motocross. McGrath was featured in a special feature of Japanese motocross magazine, but he seems to have come up with the opposite idea to the concept of stiffening the suspension setting, flying high, and absorbing shock.
    I remembered that this was also the reason why McGrath was king.

    I was 14 and watched every race on ESPN2 in the afternoons. Riders losing the lead to Jeremy by crashing/mistakes/nerves turned it into a dramatic tale of sports. It got me hooked, became a fan of Supercross! I didn't know I was witnessing such greatness that year and I'm glad I did! 🏁

    This was the year that took S/X to the next level. The racing was always great, but this was the year the "casual" observers found out about it. This was the greatest contribution that Jeremy McGrath brought. King, indeed.

Listen to how loud the crowd gets when Huffdaddy pressures him and seattle before he smoked his clutch. (That one race gave birth to on the fly clutch adjusters)

    Ricky C is by far the best in motocross and Jeremy M in Supercross. I feel with they both should race again for people to see that age does not matter. I know that in 6 months of training Jeremy can be ready for Supercross and Ricky ready for motocross. The reason they retire is they get burned out of many years of race no and all the hell that goes with it. It’s not age! They loose the eye of the tiger and just don’t care as much if they win or loose. I just think it would be awesome to see them do what Mike Tyson is doing. Motocross is so similar to boxing by having to be fit as well as being able to think quick. I would say they need to race maybe every other race and I’m sure they would get paid huge money to do so. People would show up just to see them race even if they didn’t do very well. No one expects them to win every race. That’s not realistic but they still have what it takes to fight to the front

    RC tied it and almost had one too... he did however have 2 perfect seasons outdoors a long with 12/12 overalls first year on suzuki, only losing 2 motos... one being because James landed on his back and then I can't remember what happened on the other moto loss, still got the overalls. Besides James, no one's even won all 12 overalls let a long 24/24 motos that James somehow managed to do... James easily had the speed to do it after RC retired but I would of never bet on the kawi holding together for 24 motos or James himself not crashing out at some point, but he didn't and got the perfect season

    The 1996 was the perfect storm of different things to just luckily line up for Jeremy to dominate… if Doug Henry hadn’t broke his back 4 months prior _(at Budd’s Creek in Maryland)_ Jeremy at the very least would’ve lost one to Doug & one to Jeff…
