Josh will attend all major US events, the Pre-Worlds and the World Championship in Lostallo. He has sent us the following statement:

"Heading into the 2009 season and especially looking forward to the coming World Championships, I am extremely excited to join Shepherd Micro Racing. The Velox 1/8 car has already more than proven it's capabilities and I've been impressed with the car since the moment I saw it. Now, actually going through the kit and holding one in my hand I'm even more happy and looking forward to a great future with Patrick and everyone at Shepherd."
