I don't think they are given the credit they deserve by the media or fans. Other teams seem to get a lot more attention. He has stuck by his riders and is on the verge of getting the SX title with a guy many had written off not too long ago.I say kudos. I've always thought teams and riders are too quick to part ways when things don't measure up to expectations, maybe sticking it out for the long haul is better for both.

Agreed. Bobby was running the old Team Green for years, and then worked his team up to the pros and through multiple OEMs and primary sponsors to get where they are today. Great team, great OEM, great sponsor. Happy to see them winning!

Classy guy and, indeed, very loyal---and a consensus builder.
Could see him running MoN effort after Roger bows out.

Agreed, couple years ago when he stuck with Anderson I didn't see it but I started to get on the Anderson wagon right around the time he started training at the baker factory. they been together for a while I think if I recall correctly.

I think the biggest thing he has brought to the pros is keeping a team roser consistent. years ago it wasnt unheard of for guys to bounce teams every 2-3 years religiously. Its becoming common place to keep a rider much longer with the idea that keeping a guy and not changing a good program benefits both rider and team

They've been together since Jason turned pro and with his new contract extension probably until he retires...

I think Jason has been with Bobby Hewitt since his last year of amateurs. He said he'll be there for the remainder of his career unless they decide to get rid of him. He's happy there and doing well. No point in switching up the program in my opinion. Riding for arguably the best manufacturer doesn't hurt either.
