This is 100% correct. If he ever does get a place. He will quickly realize how much money it cost to maintain all the shit.
Every time a track on a a dozer turns over it’s burning dollars bills and a lot of them.
Don't forget also having to fight with the NIMBYs and the county to continue to exist (multiple times) and eventually swaying the entire community into thinking that having motocross training facilities in Cairo was a great revenue opportunity for the entire area.
When was the last time your hometown bank congratulated a motocross rider on a win with their video sign? It happens all the time in Cairo these days.
He knows this lol.
I felt the exact same - Cantanzaro came across as a total d-bag in his video and these additional revelations only reinforce that.
He does a lot of great content but what he is trying to do here is a fundamentally different business, and Step 1 was a major fail.
Props to the Woods for protecting themselves, and forging ahead.

Maybe that’s why he didn’t man up and pay his end of the deal and fucked his partner?
What was a bigger sham, this or the 160ft. jump?
Yup
So your saying AJ backed out because at the last minute he realized how much it cost to maintain track equipment?
GTFO.
It is possible the equipment was not part of the purchase agreement. AJ is not really up on those kind of big yellow things.
Has anyone confirmed that AJ was supposed to pay for the second half? Isn't it possible that he had two different investors, one that paid and one that backed out?
That seems unlikely. I bet there is going to be a lawsuit so you won't ever hear what really happened unless it goes to court. Usually these things get settled out of court and sealed up so you never hear the real story.
Pretty sure we know the real story. What we don't know is who said what to who leading up to it.
Life is good in Abu Dhabi.
Shoulda called I could of slapped the rest down on my discover card.
Bummer deal all around. It’s crazy how many deals are done without legal. Handshake investments. Just a shame. Wish everyone luck, not a fun position to lose money.
It was done thru attorneys. Was not a handshake deal
What makes you think there wasn’t a contract. We had a very detailed and thorough contract that left GPF protected. Unfortunately the partner is the one who really got screwed here but this story isn’t over yet!
Maybe AJ spent all his money on the sweet new head of hair he's got. J/k j/k

I’ve always liked AJ and have been a subscriber but the silence is pretty damning. I’m pressing pause for now.
If AJ did not actually fuck over his partner he needs to come out and say that because continuing to be silent on this will hurt him and his brand far beyond me.
I don’t think a “my bad” on instagram is gonna cover it.
If legal case it's best to keep your mouth shut, he doesn't owe vital an explanation. We still don't know the whole story, innocent until proven guilty, so let the courts work out the issues.
I’m here at a race in Maine this weekend and I am hearing that Moto Academy trainer that is always with AJ has resigned and Lawrence brothers have parted ways with any involvement with Aj
Just a quick browse of the moto academy site and their instagram, I don't see any pictures or mention of the Lawerence brothers anymore.
I really hope AJ didn't blow up what a good thing he had going on
Maybe AJ screwed up. We all do from time to time.
I don't get the impression that he's a bad dude.
I'm hoping whatever's going on, he can do what's right within his means, and move forward and have success.
The plans for that facility sounded really cool.
If it was in So Cal, I most likely would've spent some money there.
I'm hoping and praying for a good outcome for all involved.
All of this is crazy it seems. If GPF wants to sell, why don't they just sell the place? I inquired about purchasing it cash and got no response.
I would say with the cash infusion they got from this disaster they are good.
Do you have 2 million in cash?
These days there’s a ton of money floating around, that’s not a crazy figure like it used to be even 10 years ago.
I was always surprised at the Lawrences involvement honestly, and that has nothing to do with AJ, it just seemed like the ROI on a business like that for riders of that calibre was not great, given how much time they gave to it. On the flip side, it did make me respect the Lawrences more seeing them turn up at those coaching days and helping out.
Who did you reach out to? Pretty sure you didn’t contact the right person.
