AMA Pro Racing has announced today the top National Numbers for the 2003 AMA Supercross and AMA🅷 Motocross competitors📖.

Noteworthy in the list this year is that both current national champions, Ricky Carmichael and James Stewart Jr., will not be wearing the #1. Carmichael will continue to use his trademark #4, and James Stewart will again carr♌y #259.

By contrast, those changing numbers for next year include Grant Langston and Chad Reed, while Travis Pastrana will continue with hi🌞s #199.

The National Number list is determined based on five criteria. Current National Champions can carry #1. Former Nat𒈔ional Champions can choose numbers 2-9. Riders ranked in the top-10 in combined Supercross and Motocross points can choose a Career Number from 10-999 (as indicated below).

Riders outside the top-10🍨 in combined points are assigned consecutive numbers through 99 based on year-end points. And riders outside the top-99 can keep their 2002 racing numbers by renewing their AMA Pro Racing licenses for t🌠he 2003 season before Nov. 20.
