How Jason Lawrence Threw Away His Promising Career

By popular demand, this week's video features the story of Jason Lawrence. While he has faded out of the spotlight, J-Law was once regarded as a future superstar of the sport. But today, his poor decisions left him out of the industry since 2010. Find out how all of this came to be on the latest episode from GDN Productions.

You’ve obviously never watched any video of Damon “Badshaw” “Bratshaw” Bradshaw and there were other unsavory names he got label with. Then there’s Jeff “Chicken” Matiasevich. Look up the infamous Jeff and Guy Cooper’s brake check race. Then you’ve got one of my favorite’s. Bob “The Hurricane” Hannah. If you were in his way weather you was a lapper or the next position. He was going to punt you over the hay bail’s. What I’m saying is. These guys today race a lot more cleaner than they did back in the later years. Way cleaner. To me, Bam Bam is like the last of the dirty riders. They’re might be one or two more but nothing like it was in 70’s - early to mid 90’s. Also, I’m not saying today’s riders aren’t aggressive either, because they are. I mean look at Eli Tomac. That guy is a beast.

[@Dero_milsurp]

[@justlucky8254]

​@@mrbillnotsanctioning bodies should leave civil/criminal matters to the courts. If the issue isn't directly related to racing, they should stay the hell out of it. It's ridiculous that all of the major sports organizations punish athletes as fast as possible once allegations are made. Allegations. They are all afraid of appearing to support somebody that is looked down upon by the alphabet Mafia, the metoo people, the "beleive all women" idiots (because women never lie.... and any man is a woman the moment they make that claim), and on and on. Sanctioning bodies need to be reigned in.

[@YamahaRider280]

I think part of what made him so fast was his “I don’t care” attitude. When you aren’t afraid of risk and don’t care what happens you can do some pretty amazing amazing things on a dirt bike. He obviously had crazy talent as well and it’s frustrating for those who work so hard at this sport and will never have speed like his. Haha

[@racingfuel28]

It sucks because think about how many kids dream of having a third of the talent and ability he had, and they never get to race an A class at Loretta’s, let alone make it to the pros. You’ve got literally the best life you could want in racing, and you’re gonna throw it all away for no reason whatsoever. Dude was the biggest embarrassment in the history of the sport. Perfect example of why spoilt kids aren’t the guys you see make it in this sport.

[@justanotherjackleg7073]

I was at that race in Freestone when he got the MIP. Everyone was talking about it and wondered what really happened. All I know is that it was horribly hot, so racing after a night of partying was NOT a wise choice.

Great stuff @GDN Productions. I wish you could research a young man out of Texas in the late 80s and early 90s named Jack Ricks. He was soooooo good, but his career was cut short due to a spinal injury. Not sure how to find information, but if you have old Cycle News, when they were still in print, you will certainly find him in there. Especially in 1988 at the Lake Whitney GNC National when he put it to Emig in the 80 12-16 and Supermini classes. Can't remember if he beat him every moto, but I know he beat him. Glad I got to spend all the time I did with him.

Great video as always. Lawrence is a shining example of the NFL saying "million dollar arm, ten cent brain." It's a shame because a rider with his talent should be out there, but he seemed hellbent on making sure he was never on the track. Stories like his are why I'm kinda happy the attitude era of Supercross is seemingly over, because immaturity cost him what was going to be a lucrative career

[@pay2000]

that he doesn't care doesn't mean he doesn't have a ten cent brain, that's what someone with a ten cent brain would believe

[@niteragelink]

It’s funny how people just assume what happened with Jason was the result of his attitude and poor decision making. The truth of the matter is that J-Law was doomed from the minute the industry recognized he had talent. You take a kid who has as much raw talent as anyone who ever came up through the sport like J-Law who’s had no real positive influence in his life aside from his grandfather who took him to the races then throw him into a situation where he’s expected to do so much more than show up and do what he does best with no guidance whatsoever you’re just asking for trouble. Especially when you’ve been overlooked by so many for no rhyme or reason other than the fact that you weren’t raised the same as most the kids you’ve beat week in and week out, you’re just asking for a shit storm. The real losers are those in the industry who missed out on a sure bet for a championship or two but chose to let J-Law go instead. The only ones who were ever smart enough to take advantage of the situation was YOT which paid them dividends but even they weren’t smart enough to just let things be as they may and put a little extra effort in to give the kid some guidance. That’s all the kid wanted to do was race, win, have fun, and do his own thing but that was unacceptable at the time. Can you imagine if J-Law were able to come up through the ranks today and have the freedom guys like Tomac, Roczen, Anderson, etc. have today, to just put the kid on a bike and let him go back to Jersey to train on his own terms and rip around Raceway Park and the south Jersey tracks he grew up practicing on and just let him do what works best for him? The kid would be an absolute animal on the weekends. No one could overlook that back then though. The last year J-Law raced at Loretta’s, the kid was given zero respect. The focus was on Ryan Villopotto, under the guidance of trainer Randy Lawrence, Mitch Payton, and the Pro Curcuit/Kawasaki effort, everyone just assumed the A class was all locked up and RV was the only major talent going forward. When the A class gate dropped, it was a different story. People will say Villopotto got off to terrible starts all week but he would go 2-2-2 I believe only to be absolutely annihilated by Jason Lawrence, who would win motos by as much as 30 seconds over Villopotto. In fact, the one occasion i remember the two meeting up in a moto Lawrence blew by RV like he was passing lapped traffic and I recall J-Law stating he never even saw RV all week long. I can remember the week after Loretta’s, the talk amongst everyone who went was all about how much of an upset it was and how was it even possible that a kid who showed up to the races with his grandpa with a little bit of support from Suzuki and no real program set in stone showed up and straight up blew Villopotto’s doors off? The truth of the matter was that it wasn’t really an upset, one kid had already solidified his amateur career, had a deal set in stone to ride for Mitch Payton, and was considered to be the top amateur prospect in the country. The other kid showed up to prove otherwise and earn a ride he rightfully deserved but would never get. And the rest was history.

I first met Lawrence at Julian’s house. I didn’t know who he was and I asked Julian who is a punk was sitting on his couch because I thought it was just some neighborhood kid lol. Jason and I spent several years playing MX versus ATV together. The week before the Daytona Supercross we were living on the video game. Probably 18 hours a day we were smoking marijuana and who knows what else. We were both having a very good time and then late at night. Jason says holy shit. I gotta go bro. And I asked him. Where are you trying to get to this late? he says bro I got to catch my flight and get to Daytona for tomorrow’s races! I laughed and said what you’re racing tomorrow? How are you going to race tomorrow you haven’t even read and you’ve been smoking weed playing video games! He says I don’t know bro I’ll figure it out. I’ll catch you on Monday. I go to sleep wake up do some chores the next day sit down for the Supercross and watch him whole shot and leave the entire race while the commentators are talking about how he has become more serious than focused in his training routine. Lmao To have watched what he accomplished, and personally being witness to how his entire week leading up to it was was one of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen, and probably will ever see in my lifetime Really happy I got to be a fly on the wall during that time

[@tylersvensson4468]

I swear he gets talked about more then Stewart or RC, he was a pain in the ass but made it up on the bike. It’s a shame that he didn’t hire a better agent that actually taken the time to get him well mentally and not just want money from him. I go onto his Instagram once and a while and he seems washed up riding a 10 year old suzuki still shredding. If he made a return I think he would be a top 10 rider from the first race alone after not training for a long time but doubt that would happen as it seems he barley got into the redbull event a few months ago

Huge JLaw fan but sucks he was so rowdy when he had the world ahead of him.
