JDR/J-Star/KTM Signs Malcolm Stewart
JDR Motorsports, LLC is excited to announce Malcolm Stewart as the newest member of its 2012 JDR/J-Star/KTM-backed Supercross and Motocross Lites racing team.
Stewart, fresh off his first year in professional racing, will join the JDR/J-Star/KTM Racing Team as a member of their 250cc team. The team already includes riders PJ Larsen and Matt Moss. All three riders will compete aboard the 2012 KTM 250 SX-F race machine in the AMA Supercross Lites and AMA Pro 250cc Motocross National Championship Series.
“Malcolm has been on our radar since his first holeshot last year in the AMA East Supercross Lites Series. He is a tough competitor and isn’t scared to hang it out. We are looking forward to helping him progress in the series and hope to see some podium finishes from him in the 2012 season,” remarked JDR/J-Star/KTM Team Manager Nathan Ramsey.
Stewart, a multi-time amateur national champion, had his best Supercross finishes at the Indianapolis and Dallas rounds where he missed the podium by just one spot finishing 4th at both races. He secured his best outdoor motocross finish during the second moto of the Budds Creek Motocross National where he finished 6th overall.
“I had some up and down moments in my first season of racing but feel I was able to learn a lot from the mistakes I made and also from the good races I had. I am excited to ride the new KTM’s and am excited about the level of support I will receive from JDR Motorsports and their sponsors. I am really looking forward to the upcoming season and aiming for a podium spot,” commented Stewart.
