That is Josh Greco. Last year he was qualifying on a ragged '06 250. He will be on a brand new Suzuki RMZ250 today. I think it is still all stock, but I'm not there so I can't say for sure.

He hasn't had but one day to ride the bike but I'm hoping he has a great day.

Cool, I'll keep an eye out for him. Little seat time will probably hurt him though.

I know.

Josh is a good kid and that's why I'm hoping for the best. He's really trying to do this and he listens to the people around him. He's only 17!

The new Suzuki came with conditions. He has to train every day, spend less time with the girls, and keep his grades up. It's been a few weeks since 'the talk.' Since then, he's held up his end of the bargain and even cut off his cool kid hair and removed his peircings (that was my suggestion - lol.)

Thats awesome. Thats what he needs is some good people and guidance around him. Sounds like hes got a good head on his shoulders. Hopefully he doesnt get off track of the conditions, very easy to do at 17. Looking forward to seeing some good results from him on the new bike.

29-29, not too shabby!

During the webcast, it appeared he started dead last in the 1st moto.

Solid ride either way

I thought he was riding a mod loaner for the national. And that the 'new' bike wasn't ready yet, as it was not broken-in or mod at all.

Is a cool kid. I sent him some pics last year from him at Glen Helen. He made one of them his Myspace default pic for a while. My daughter is friends with him on Myspace and told me he posted the pics.. Good luck to the kid...

Although at the SDSX he seemed to have a few guys hanging with him who were to cool for the room... Sounds like he moved on...

josh did a good job out there thanks to the local kid Reid Snyder who lent josh his practice bike and without the help from mark at racers pit shop josh would of sat this one out . josh is a junior in high school and his teachers support his racing as long as his school work is done. the kid has stepped up and is on a good solid program and has some very good people helping out. looking forward to seeing him on a new bike
