  • Look who Jason Weigandt found at the front door of the Phoenix Racing Honda shop? Jason Lawrence, fresh off a Progressive Grand National Cross Country attempt at the Yamaha Racing Ironman GNCC, is getting ready for more. He tried some laps on a supercross track and is considering racing some AMA Arenacross. And other things! Weigandt chatted with JLaw and also got a tour of the Phoenix Honda shop.
    By the way, Weigandt stopped by the shop to track Dylan Ferrandis news. It should be coming...soon.

    JLaw is squirrelly AF. Eyes darting everywhere but the camera. He was a badass MXer, better than he should have been, but he still might need some help. Hoping that I'm wrong and makes a positive comeback. Popcorn is in the maker.

    • @HBInHD.
      @HBInHD. Před 7 měsíci

      It’s one of his first interviews in a while, and cameras make a lot of people awkward, even if he used to be on TV if it’s a 1 on 1 like this he could be a little stressed or something yanno.
      And maybe he’s trying to make a good impression for people and a little nervous.
      Love this dude.

    I’m looking forward to seeing J Law back at it. He’s one of the most naturally talented dudes we’ve seen in the past. I’m really curious to know about his childhood. He was a crazy man back in the day because, well he was a young dude that was getting paid, but also it makes me feel like he had a rough upbringing. Watching his mannerisms while talking to Weege makes me think he had a rough go as a kid.

      Agreed BUT, it was really nice to see him be very humble about turning up to the GNCC and how, if you could, he knew it wouldn't look good to brag about how your gonna win ahead of time. That's a level of humility and self-awareness that I suspect was lacking or ignored in/by the old Jason.
