Congrats Jett Lawrence

I get everyone wanting to bring up James as unfulfilled potential.  But Jett is such a different  rider than James. There's a good chance Jett will have the same amount of titles as James after this summer. At 21yrs old. But, to your point, everyone can get injured yes. 

Conratz to the young lad !

The best premier class rookie season MX / SX combined.  The competition will have their work cut out as I believe he’s only going to get better.  

That's the scary part, he's only going to get better. He's 20. There's been lots of discussions on who his competition will be in the coming years, moving up from 250. Whoever it is they won't even be racing this version of Jett. They'll be facing an even better, more refined Jett 

Check the post race interviews here on Vital, Sexton says he thinks the bike will be a better outdoor bike.

That purple helmet is sick! Too bad he couldn’t wear it due to his Red Bull sponsorship.

He also wasn’t the champion at the time so there’s also that. 

Congrats to the 18.

Plenty of opinions on him getting around, from the insane fan boy to the insane hater and everything in between.

Fan or not, you can't deny the eyewatering stats that have been posted across the season - win count, laps lead compared to the next, holeshots, fastest qualifier, fastest main event lap etc etc. 

Despite the hiccups along the way, the stats don't lie that it was a dominating season. Excited for his future. 

Not to hijack too much, feel free to join in or don't but given the thread and props being given, my highlights:

- A1 win
- Seattle being nearly 2 secs a lap faster early in the main. 

Jett achieved several supers this year

Win a Triple Crown
A1 winner, not winning the championship

Or Herlings. Nothing is given, but seems like Jett has more milk in his childhood

Congrats to Jett. That’s  incredible, he’s in good company. Only MC and the Dunge won the Premier class SX title in their rookie year. 

Congrats to Jett ❤️ did we just watch the last time in a while his bike will have the 18 on it? 

Man I was always a fan but after hearing Dazzy on Pulp I became an even bigger fan. Respect to the Lawrence’s. We’re witnessing something pretty cool and when his times up in the sport we can sit back and be happy that we got to witness it. 

Anyone know of some good 250 racing when Jett was in the lites class?

I kept hearing about the hype but didn't think he'd be so dominate in the 450 class when he was on 250s. I'd like to go back and watch some of his older footage. I remember seeing him live in Arlington in 2022 and he was sooo much faster than the rest of the field coming through the pack after washing the front end 2/3 times in the triple crown format. 

The guy is on an absolutely incredible run:

21-250 MX

22-250 East

22-250 MX

23-250 West

23-450 MX

23-450 SMX

24-450 SX

Next up 24-450 MX ??

PS, I left out the 23-450 King of Paris.

I actually watched 2020 250 E/W shootout at SLC on DailyMotion last night because I wanted to see how his progression went. He actually looked really good that race, but the rookie mistakes messed him up that night. Was running up front early and showed great speed, even as a rookie. 

Redbud 2022

Bike failed moto 1

2nd moto instead of just holding a lead like he usually does, he absolutely destroyed the field. 

You could tell he wanted to send a message. 

Entire '22 outdoor 250 season. That was the Jett-Hunter-Shimoda show.
