AMA Pro Racing has announced rider numbers for competitors in the 2005 Supercross and Motocross championshi🌳ps.

National numbers are based on a system that allows past champions, current champions and riders who have earned a top-10 national ranking, to select and ret๊ain the same number from year to year. This system wa﷽s established in 2002.

Riders like Travis Pastrana (#199), Jeremy McGrath (#2), Mike LaRocco (#5), Ricky Carmichael (#4), and Jam๊es Stewart (#259), are among those who have used their success to make a race number their own.

"There's a promotional value associated with a r🌟ider keeping a particular number," confirmed Steve Whitelock, AMA Pro Racing's Motocross/Supercross series manager. "This allows the rider and his sponsors to develop an identifiable mark in connection with his image."

Current AMA National⛦ Champions can carry the #1 plate. Numbers 2 - 9 are then reserved for past National Champions in active competition, or they may select any available number.

R🐎iders ranked in the top-10 in combined Supercross and Motocross points can choose a Career Number from 10-999 which they keep until they withdraw from competition or fail to earn a National point.

Riders outside the top-10 in combined points are assigned consecu💜tive numbers through 99 based on year-end points, but can request a higher triple-digit number when applying for their 2005 license.

Riders outside the top-99 can keep their 2004 racing numbers by renewing their AMA Pro Racing licenses for the 2005 season before Nꦛovember 20, 2004.
