This photohistory traces the career of motocross racer Jeremy "Showtime" McGrath. Considered the greatest supercross champion of all time, McGrath won eight championships and is the rider who ushered the sport into the mainstream. Using a combination of his personality, natural racing talent, and superb marketing skills, Jeremy has signed major sponsors and appeared on mainstream television. Written by McGrath's lifetime friend and motojournalist Ken Faught, Jeremy McGrath: Images of a Supercross Champion documents McGrath's introduction to the sport; his unprecedented professional career as a rider for Kawasaki, Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha, and KTM; his unexpected retirement in January 2003; and what he's been up to since.
