“Yamaha of Troy Sorry for Lawrence’s
Unacceptable Behavior”
- press release -
Valencia, California – Yamaha of Troy (“YOT”)
regrets the unfortunate off the track action of their recently crowned
2008 Supercross “Lites/West” Champion, Jason Lawrence, at
Freestone National MX in Wortham, Texas this past weekend.
YOT does not condone the type of behavior that Lawrence
displayed and as a result has taken steps of their own to rectify the
situation immediately, and have implemented policies and procedures
so as to eliminate these types of unfortunate situations from occurring
in the future.
Lawrence deeply regrets his off the track actions this
past weekend and wants his fans and fellow racers to know that he’s
extremely sorry to all, and sees this as a wake-up call. He realizes
since winning the 2008 Supercross “Lites” Champion just
a few short weeks ago he is not just another racer on the track anymore,
but rather a Champion. He now has everyone watching his every move,
and is very aware that he is being looked at as a role to young racers
coming up aspiring to be a Champion, just like himself.

“Boost Mobile/Yamaha of Troy’s Jason
Lawrence Takes SX Championship Winning Momentum Outdoors!”
- press release -
Valencia, California – Jason Lawrence came out
swinging this past weekend at the opening round of the 2008 AMA Motocross
National Championship series at Glen Helen Raceway in San Bernardino,
California, carrying that same speed and continued momentum that took
him to his first AMA Supercross “Lites” Championship just
four short weeks ago.
By coming out of the gate first and never looking back,
Lawrence took the first moto win with ease, despite experiencing problems
with his transmission jumping in and out of gear. And after changing
to his back-up engine in-between races, Lawrence rode to a well deserved
third place overall on the day, and now sits just one point out of the
series points lead with eleven rounds remaining.
The second round of the series will be held this Sunday,
June 1st, 2008, at the classic Hangtown Motocross National at Prairie
City SVRA Park, located in Rancho Cordova, California, a track that
Lawrence really likes.

“Boost
Mobile/Yamaha of Troy’s Jason Lawrence Wins “Lites West”
Championship”
- press release -
Valencia, California – Jason Lawrence scored a
second place finish in the Supercross “Lites” Main Event
at Qwest Field in Seattle, Washington this past Saturday night to capture
his first ever Championship as a professional racer, while this is Boost
Mobile/Yamaha of Troy’s fifth Supercross Championship.
After beginning the season with zero points at the first
round, Lawrence put his head down and focused on just one thing, winning
races. And winning races he did. By the time the series reached the
sixth and next to last round, Lawrence had worked himself into striking
distance of the points leader, and by the end of the night at that sixth
round he was in the points lead with a six point cushion. Going into
the last round in Seattle this past Saturday night, Lawrence was in
complete control, and by the end of the night he was the Champion!
