This year in the 250 class, it was the Aussie, Jett Lawrence and the Star Racing Yamaha rider from New York, Justin Cooper. Towards the end of the season, Jett started to be more consistent in the front of the pack and was winning races. As the points sit, Lawrence will have to make some big mistakes to lose this championship at Hangtown.
