L&Mc Racing has today announced that it will sit out the remainder of the 2013 Monster Energy Supercross series.

The team has regrettably cease team racing operations for the 2013 season as the result of circumstances beyond its control.

L&Mc and its principals, seven-time supercross champion Jeremy McGrath and team manager Larry Brooks, as well as their rider Andrew Short, have always been committed to performing at the highest level of accomplishment, success, and professionalism.

However, unforeseen events outside of L&Mc’s control have recently prevented that from occurring.

L&Mc will continue to support Short and wish him the best of success in 2013 as he continues on with his career.

“We did our best to keep Andrew out on the track but forces out of our control dictated that we conclude the season earlier than we planned,” McGrath explained.

“Andrew is a class act and we wish him podium success throughout the rest of the season and beyond with his new team.”

L&Mc was launched in 2012, but has since struggled to retain funding to comfortably compete on a consistent level during the past 12 months.
