I was doing a project for statistics on supercross wins, and noticed something that I found quite interesting. As of the end of the 2011 season, there had been 937 races. This is combining the 125/250f, 250/450f, and 500 classes together. Jeremy McGrath won 9.07% percent of every supercross main event up until that point. Most racers would be happy winning 9% of the races they started. He won 9% of the races ever started.
