Ricky Johnson is a legend, plain and simple. The man has met U.S. presidents. He's an inductee of the Motorcycle Hall of Fame. And he's one of the most honored Motocross and Supercross athletes of all time. He made a name for himself in the 1980s as one of the great racers of all time and his record speaks for itself: 61 AMA national wins, seven of which were national championships.

Beginning at the age of 12 in motocross, Johnny Greaves has won races and championships in every level of competition. At 23, he switched to four wheels and soon earned success while buggy racing in SCORE off-road desert and SODA short-course off-road series (the precursor to Championship Off Road Racing - CORR).

A milestone in the emerging development of the virbrant spec truck racing class, SuperLite Championship will launch the SuperLite Off Road Racing School on July 14, featuring legendary racer Ricky Johnson as race instructor at its purpose-built short course off-road racing facility in Reno, Nevada.

This tribute just sums it all up. From the music to the imagery that outlines the life of the man we came to know as The Action Sports Freight Train , from birth to the big wave surfing with Sunny Garcia to the backflips with his Metal Mulisha family and into the seat of his General Tire SuperLite, the guy we knew as Ox simply kicked ass at living life, and Metal Mulisha captured the essence of why the world was better place because of it.

The SuperLite Championship has become a magnet for extreme sports junkies and action sports addicts. Add to that the huge interest the Metal Mulisha Family has had in the vibrant mosh pit of motorsports, and it's no wonder why an action sports freight train, Jeff “OX” Kargola, has lured in huge sponsors such as General Tire and Lost Energy Drink to take the plunge into the hardcore, high-flying, wheel-to-wheel action of the SuperLite Arrive & Drive program. While not smashing on the throttle of a SuperLite truck, you can catch Ox engaged in gnarly back flips at the X Games or charging hard toward a podium at such races as the legendary Baja 1000.

Chuck Dempsey has commanded some of the most prestigious victories in off-road racing history. His resume on the throttle and in the management slot has earned an earnest array of championships. He has won in trucks and buggies. He has triumphed aboard underdog privateer teams and on behalf of factory motorcycle teams.
