Ricky “GOAT” Carmichael Biography
Ricky Carmichael born November 27, 1979 in Clearwater, Florida – professional motocross racer. He is considered by many to be the greatest motocross racer of all time. Carmichael began riding at age 3 and raced the amateur motocross circuit during his childhood. After a record setting career in the amateur ranks he made his pro debut at the last race of the 1996 season. He finished 8th overall in the 125 class which was enough to earn him rookie of the year honors.
It has been reported that 2007 will be Carmichael’s last season in AMA competition. He is rumored to be going into NASCAR and is currently talking to Joe Gibbs Racing, who currently fields cars for J.J. Yeley, Denny Hamlin, and 2-time Cup Champion Tony Stewart. If he jumps into a stock car, he will start in the ARCA series before making the leap to the Nextel Cup.
