This post may not be for everyone, but thanks for taking a look. I just wanted to give some credit to a young up and comer from Michigan. He also happens to be my little brother. Jarett Pesci has been on fire this year and riding very good. He does'nt get much press so I figured I'd throw something on here.

Jarett is a 16 year old from Shelby Twp. Michigan and has been racing sinc the age of 5. He has qualified for Loretta's the past 7 years in a row, with his best finish being a 6th overall. He has won 3 MRA National Championships as well as a Kentucky State Championship. He has raced the Mini O's the past 6 years with a best finish of 3rd overall. He recently won the 2009 250B Indiana State Championship and raced the Schoolboy 1 and 2 classes at Loretta's this year. At this years BAJA BRAWL, he was the only rider to win every moto he entered in a class on the weekend by sweeping 5 straight motos in the Schoolboy 2 class aboard his 2010 KTM 250SX-F. He's an all around quiet and good kid who just loves to ride. I'm proud to call him my brother and would like to thank all his sponsors for all their help. Thank you,

Magic Racing, Championship Powersports, Fox Racing, ONE Industries, Decal MX, Oakley, 157 productions, Sano Systems, Stheart Clothing and of course Killer Customz.

Here is a few pictures of Jarett on his Magic Racing KTM's.

Wow, pretty easy to tell someone is a great racer if he can manage to qualify for Loretta's seven years in a row. That's a great accomplishment. Well done.

Don't give Kyle too much credit here. He is a giant ass. He just happened to say something really nice about his brother, who is an amazing rider by the way. Never-the-less Kyle remains a giant ass,

Very cool of you. My son has raced your bro on a few occasions over the years, I think the latest being at Sunset Ridge NC regional this year. Keep up the good work.

Kyle
I am doing you a favor. Once people get to know you they will eventually hate you anyway. I am just speeding up that process a bit.

Just kidding though. For the record:

***Kyle is a an ass

***Jarett, Kyle's brother, is an up-and-coming rider that definitely deserves a lot more credit and exposure than he currently gets. It seems like, in Michigan anyway, there is a drought of really fast riders. Jarett is one of those riders that is definitely filling that void. He is clearly deserving of any credit that is thrown his way, and a whole lot more.

Seems like the midwest riders are often overlooked. Over the years many coasters both east and west along with many southerners have come to the Midwest Loretta Lynn qualifiers thinking they were going to have an easy time only to go home with their tails between their legs after getting their butts handed to them buy guys they never heard of.

Show me the result sheets from where he has beat Josh Lichtle, Jerry Lorenz or Eric Montreul. There is no doubt he is a fast rider but there is something to be said about a persons attitude. You can post anything on paper.

He never say's one word.He is the most non confrontational person i have ever met.He has won multiple state championship's and by talking to him or being around him you would never even know it.He love's the sport of Motocross.Just enjoy's riding with other rider's.Whether it's a little guy on a 50 or an old vet rider it does'nt matter.The word ATTITUDE definetly does'nt belong anywhere near this kid.If you think he has an attitude OBVIOUSLY you have not ever spoken to this young man.Do me a favor and take the time the next time you are at a track and stop by and say Hi to him and then comeback and comment on it.

I do not go around posting untruths and I did not post to start anything just to point out the maybe you shouldn't name drop about riders you beat when in fact you haven't actually beaten them. I have in fact spoken to and listened to Jaret and while you may not have witnessed any attitude that does not mean there isn't one. As far as unconfrontational goes maybe you should check into the last race pitbike race at Baja and see how quiet and calm that sinario was, so you do me a favor and before you comment about my post you take the time to check the facts and then you comeback and comment on it.

Speaking of attitude problems and someone fast out of Michigan lately brings to mind Izzi. Isn't he from Michigan?

Man thanks Kimbo, dont know who you are but that means a lot. I just got done going off about something along those lines.
I too invite anybody to come say hello to him and talk to him. Like I said very quiet and easy going.

And come on guys be nice to Nico.

Who are you? where's this attitude you talk of? And you need to get your facts straight because Jarett did not race the pitbike race at Baja! Need to really figure out what your talking about. And I wasnt Name dropping, just using refrences. Those are the only kids around Jarett has to really ride with and he loves when he gets that opportunity.
Montruel, Lichtle, Senk, Lorenz, Woods, Smith are all amazingly fast and need to be applauded on their speed and sportsmanship as well.
Sandy you really need to read this entire post, and then let us know of your talks with Jarett and the attitude he's given you. AND again he didnt even race the pitbike race so stop talking about facts.

Come on Kyle just admit it....you and your brother are mean,nasty people. Think of the mean things you have done to and said to me in the past........

All the best to Jarett in the future. Nothing wrong with a post supporting your brother.

Now...speaking of pit bike racing......... you old married wussy. A little Wednesday night indoor battle is calling your name.
