I see him at local tracks. Pitched in a few bucks to get him to Loretta’s a few years ago. He was very appreciative. Also seen him flag for local races before. Let’s not be so critical of 17/18 year olds. He’s just trying to race a dirtbike.

Maybe it’s time to stop trying. There comes a time when every man must face reality. If your buddy has to set up a go fund me for you to get a bike because you don’t want to pay. It’s probably time to give up the dream and go to work and ride for fun. Like the rest of us adults.

Pretty surprising he can’t get any support. Really fast kid out of Northern California, don’t know his backstory completely but from what I’ve heard it’s not the best. Had a ride for JMC Husky for a little bit but they split ways and no one has a sure answer, lots of rumors flying around but no point in further spreading them if they aren’t confirmed.

I remember seeing him a couple years ago ripping a CR500 in some races out in California, in one of JMC’s YouTube videos with him he talked about how he didn’t have a bike for a while and was basically hopping on anyone’s he could to race or get some seat time in. Just thought I would make a thread to get him a little more exposure, someone organized a Go Fund Me for him and the majority of the comments were just people shitting on him for asking for handouts even though he wasn’t even the one who made it. Looks like he’s got a day job doing construction, don’t know what is up with his dad but may have disability from what I’ve seen.

Anyway just thought I’d post this up here to spread his name a little further, there were some really good videos of him shredding a 125 a year or two but looks like he moved to a 250F before his departure from JMC. Best of luck to the kid, seems like he’s got a great head on his shoulders.

Hey man,

Thank you for this. I've had a rough past couple of weeks but everything is starting to get a lot better! A lot of people are starting rumors that aren't true and saying really hateful things but I try to look past it but it's hard to look past it all. The truth is my dad and I did decide to not sign the contract with JMC because they changed what we originally had agreed upon. I can't go into full detail of what they offered me but we wouldn't of been able to hold up our end and you're word is everything so we couldn't do it. Someone did make a go fund me for me (I had nothing to do with it. I said ill find another way). To be honest man I hate asking for help but sometimes you have to. If I didn't i'd be done riding... for now... I wanna ride so bad so of course I'd go to work full time and not ride but right now the competition is so heavy that every day off the bike hurts your performance big time. I do have a job framing that i do when I can but I can't work right now because I have to finish high school I also have to help my dad because he is permanently disabled. I attend online classes from 8:40am to 2:30pm 5 days a week. I get up at 6:30am and do my training before school and ride every chance I get. With this being said I am 17 years old and i feel like I have a lot on my plate. I appreciate everyone that has and is helping me out because I wouldn't of made it this far if it wasn't for them. As far as all the hating comments I really wish you guys could know the truth before posting them because no matter if they are true or not (which they are not) it hurts my image. I'm not trying to make anyone feel sorry for me just letting you guys in on my personal life.

Seems like a douche on the gram. Someone asked why he didn’t resign with JMC and his response was “what they were offering I can do alone” then his newest post is a gofundme with a 10k goal for him to get his own bike. Plenty of comments telling him to get a job or people saying they can get him a job and his response is “I have a job framing.” Idk about where you guys live but anywhere in Cali an apprentice framer can afford payments on a bike from a dealer. Seems entitled to me for having one good ride in a 4 lap 125 exhibition race.

Bro no disrespect but you obviously didn't watch Mini O's or the Arizona Open a week after. The rumour I heard (possibly the truth) was the team didn't want his dad at the races so he left. Please go watch those races if you haven't he was absolutely flying! I'm not associated with him nor a fanboy but do show respect where it's due and he deserves it.

I’ve knowing him since 2012 never had the best bikes because of financial problems. As for JMC it’s not like they are full support or much support. another kid same age, they group up together Martin has the same support. Buy your own bikes and stickers support. Next time anyone of you are at Club you should say hello to B ray, he’s good kid.

I did have a full ride until you guys took that from me with a year and a half left on the contract. So if you're gonna post something say the whole truth Mr. Manager that woulda got 20% of all the earnings I woulda made. I can go into full detail if you want. I'm sure the people will see my point and stop hating on me but I'm not like that and won't do that unless you keep posting you're half only.
