Add motocross racer Jason Lawrence to the growing list of action sports stars who call Carlsbad home. Last night, Lawrence, placed second in the AMA Supercross Lites class in Seattle, Washington last night and brought home his first AMA Supercross Lites Championship.
While Dungey pulled away from the field, Lawrence moved into second place and rode to the first AMA Supercross Lites championship of his career. Yamaha’s Broc Hepler, of Kittanning, Pa., finished in third place. The win for Dungey was his third of the season.
“Once I settled into second place, I was really nervous,” said Lawrence. “I just wanted to keep it on two wheels and ride a smart race. I was really comfortable when my Yamaha teammate Broc Hepler was behind me.”
Congrats, Jason.
