Fifteen year old James Stewart has been competing on the motorcross circuit for seven years now. Every weekend from April 1 until October 31, his dad Ron is running his son throughout South Central Ontario, taking his son to various races.

The third overall for CMX Racing, James is now into the Fall Series and will be competing in 15 races until the end of the season.

James is in two moto classes, the 125B and the GPB. Attending his races, he does one moto in the morning and another in the afternoon, and his best time is used to determine his standing for the race.

In order to upgrade his bike to a 2007 Suzuki 125 and to pay for the costs
