I really have become a fan of the guy this year.

- Coming out of the Arenacross scene seems like a rags to riches story for Supercross/Motocross.

- Racing after that slam in San Diego.

- Riding with the patch in memory of a fellow Vital member's mother who passed away due to cancer (I think that's how it went).

- Likes George Straight.

- Looks like he could make a great UFC fighter.

- Solid speed & heat race wins.

- Finally, his ride in Indy (along with other rounds this year) was really impressive. The thing that stood out the most to me was his attitude during his podium interview. When a lot of guys get passed by Villopoto, after leading laps like Justin, they seem drop off the pace they were holding when they were in front of Villopoto. Brayton didn't seem affected by the pass at all, and continued out his solid ride. He also did not seem very disappointed finishing second, considering he lead many laps, but rather pleased in acknowledging the ride as a solid stepping stone to further his progress. This guy has a great attitude and mindset, so I if I had the ability to predict the future like so many other Vital posters, I would say he is going to win one before the year is over, but since I'm psychic, I'll say I think there is a pretty darn good chance! Cool

I agree 100 %.
Brayton seems like a very progressive person who puts all his energy into moving forward.
I believe if he keeps this attitude up for a few more seasons he will be a very serious threat for sx titles .
I wonder how he will go outdoors...

The only thing working against him is his age-I had no idea he was already 28

Couldn't agree more with the QP... JB has been killing it and what a story!

Totally Hank. I hit him up on twitter about his work ethic and abnormal rise to the top. He is now a hero of mine because he did it through hard work and HEART.

I also asked him when the JB10 shirts were coming. He said soon. I want a Brayton shirt really bad.

In the words of Weege.... I've been celeBrayton.

He has turned into what is perhaps the best investment this year!

So pumped for Justin this year! I really hope he's still on a factory honda next season.

Justin has done great this year and has always seemed like a cool cat. Hope he continues doing well and gets a win at some stage.
