CHARLOTTE, NC (November 29, 2005) - James Stewart will race as number 7 beginning at the first round of the Amp'd Mobile World Supercross GP in Toronto.  Stewart, who has earned the privilege to receive a single digit number from the AMA is excited about the change. 

"Single digit numbers are difficult to earn and are reserved only for past champions," said Stewart.  "I was 7 years old when I won my first amateur title, so it feels like things are right for me to take my earned number as I start the new season.  I want to thank my family, my sponsors, and especially the fans that have supported me."
