Press Release

Team San Manuel's James Stewart on the Mend








Josh Hill Second in Points Race





LOS ANGELES, CA (February 4, 2010) Team San
Manuel Yamaha’s James Stewart, the reigning 2009 AMA/FIM Supercross Champion,
will not be racing in San Diego this weekend.  Last week on Friday, January 29th, an evaluation of an MRI
showed Stewart had a broken scaphoid bone in his right hand.  He underwent immediate surgery, that
day, to have it repaired and be on the road to recovery right away. James
returned to his home state of Florida for post-surgery therapy immediately
following the procedure.







 “It’s been 5 days
since my surgery and my wrist is feeling a lot better.  Right now I’m following Doctors orders
so I can get back on the track racing as soon as possible. I want to be out
there as soon as I can ride without pain. It was no fun racing Phoenix and
Anaheim 2 this way.”  There is no
exact date when Stewart will return to the race track, but if progress continues
as is, he and his Team are hopeful that date will be very soon.







In the meantime, Stewart’s Team San Manuel Yamaha teammate, Josh
Hill, who is ranked 2nd in the 2010 AMA/FIM Monster Energy Supercross Series,
has been training and testing hard all week as he prepares to take to the track
at Round 5 of the series in San Diego, in pursuit of the series Championship
points lead.

About
L & M Racing


L&M
Racing was formed in 2006 by Owner/Team Manager Larry Brooks and partner Mike
Kranyak.  Operating as Team San
Manuel Yamaha, this illustrious team has garnered 2 Supercross Championship
titles in just three professional race seasons. For the 2010 race season, 2009
Supercross Champion James Stewart anchors Team San Manuel as he vehemently
defends his title and is joined by 2008 Supercross Rookie of the Year Josh Hill. 
In 2009, Team San Manuel’s James Stewart won his second Supercross
Championship, his first coming in 2007, and second for L&M Racing’s
independent effort.  Rookie Kyle
Chisholm rounded out Team San Manuel’s 2009 team.  In 2008 team, Team San Manuel Yamaha, consisted of 2004
Supercross Champion Chad Reed and former West Coast Lites Champion Nathan
Ramsey -- the newly-formed endeavor garnered its first championship title that
season.  Led by Larry Brooks, the
driving force behind the Jeremy McGrath/Chaparral Racing team's three-year
championship reign in Supercross, Brooks' then race effort yielded the first
and only indie team to ever win an AMA Supercross Series Championship.  L&M Racing is headquartered within
an 8,000 square foot, state-of-the-art race facility in Southern California and
is one of the most successful independently owned and operated teams in
professional Supercross racing today.
