JOSH CARTWRIGHT
Josh Cartwright continues to show his dedication each and every week. Josh continues to be an IT professional during the week and still finds the time to be a competitive Supercross racer on Saturdays.

Josh attacked the track when the qualifying sessions began and managed to qualify a very commendable 12th fastest. He lined up to the Heat race with lots of confidence and was ready to show Detroit what he was made of. When the gate dropped, Josh did his best to jump off the line ahead of his competitors.

Josh was looking spicy as he tossed his green machine around and would show he belonged in the conversation. He would only shuffle back to 5th by the checkers and was looking magnificent. Unfortunately he would not have the same start in the Main but would eventually finish 17th overall on the night.
