May 3, 2012 - Manlius, NY:  Carey Hart began competing
in motocross races in 1981 at  6 years old, turned professional in 1993
when he was 18 and began competing in pro motocross and  super cross
racing, Soon after Hart  began competing in freestyle motocross (FMX) in
1996 and Supermoto racing.



During
the 2000 Gravity Games, Hart became the first to complete a back flip
in motorcycle competition.  He also invented his signature freestyle
motocross move known as the Hart Attack.



Hart has traveled around the world promoting freestyle Motocross and
helped develop the sport to what it is today. After his freestyle career
Carey came back to his roots and returned to Supercross with the Hart
Huntington team developing riders and introducing new sponsors to expand
the sport.



Today, Carey funds one of the most popular and lifestyle-driven
privateer teams to hit Supercross. In 2011, Carey welcomed a new title
sponsor Dodge Motorsports who entered the Supercross space for the first
time. Carey has taken his team to a whole new level for the 2012
Supercross season by doubling its size of talented riders at a time when
most teams are down scaling.



Alex Moroz General Managing Partner of the Legends & Heroes Tour
states ”I remember meeting Carey as a very completive MX  teen with his
uncle John at the Gatorback MX pro national back in1997.  Here was a kid
who lived the dream. In the early days they traveled in a ford van,
eating peanut and butter and jelly sandwiches, staying at KOA camps from
race to race doing what he loved the most, racing!  I have watched his
career come full circle,   Mr. Hart has not only developed a brand but a
life style featuring Supercross that has elevated our sport for the
fans and his racers”.



Managing Partner, Mike Owens, agrees that Hart has elevated the sport of
Supercross with their originality and quality of racing these past few
years.
