Sad to hear but I think Andrew should be hired to take over for Windham on the Geico 450.
Los Angeles, CA (January 24, 2013) – L&Mc Racing, LLC will regrettably cease team racing operations for the 2013 season, immediately, as the result of circumstances beyond the team’s control.
L&Mc Racing principals, 7-time Supercross champion Jeremy McGrath and Team Manager, Larry Brooks, as well as their rider Andrew Short, are committed to running a program with the utmost level of professionalism however, recent unforeseen events outside of the team’s control have prevented that from occurring.
Larry Brooks and Jeremy McGrath wish their friend and colleague Andrew Short, the best of success in 2013 as he continues on with his career. According to McGrath, “We did our best to keep Andrew out on the track but forces out of our control dictated that we conclude the season much earlier than we anticipated or planned. Andrew is a class act and we wish him success throughout the rest of the season and beyond with his new team.” Added Larry Brooks, “Andrew has proven himself to be a great rider over the years, and my hope is that 2013 be no different for him.”
Jeremy McGrath and Larry Brooks wish to thank the current L&Mc Racing sponsors, Chaparral, Honda, WPS, Bel Ray, MMI, FMF, ODI, Talon, Dubya, Matrix, and Ironclad for their tireless support, exceptional loyalty and unwavering commitment to the L&Mc Race Team.
Big time bummer. I hope you're right and he fills in the rest of the year at FC, seems like that would be a perfect fit.
The Shop
Sounds like he has already found a new team?
Matthes' curse?
Bad deal for everyone involved, mechanics, drivers, rider, owners, etc.
Also, with JDR in a similar situation, although because of different circumstances, it just shows how difficult it is to make a team work in the industry.
Sucks for him because he IS supercross and the reason it is what it is today.
Shorty has a ride already, lets just hope he can find some balance this season.
So, how many teams folding this year ...
JWR
JDR
L&MC
?
Pit Row
Where will the money come from to run the SX series then. Hopefully there's more people dedicated to motorsports like the Lucas family out there.
Sucks for Shorty. I hope he didn't get shafted in how this all played out.
maybe someday these teams may figure it out
