Ricky Carmichael has a long and storied career in the Daytona Supercross.
Last year the 27-year-old Makita Suzuki rider became the first five-time winner of one of the most prestigious races on the AMA racing calendar. Carmichael is now set to race in his final Daytona Supercross this Friday night, March 9, as he prepares to transition to a NASCAR racing career. He is hoping to cap off his amazing Daytona legend with yet another victory in the grueling race.
Carmichael, who first raced at Daytona 10 years ago, is racing only part-time in this year‰Ûªs Amp‰Ûªd Mobile AMA Supercross Series, but he comes into Daytona fresh off a win this past Saturday in St. Louis. Daytona is one race that Carmichael has been looking forward to all year.
‰ÛÏI got a gift in St. Louis, but I‰Ûªll take it any way I can get it,‰Û
