Career[edit]

2011 Was supposed to ride outdoors in the Ama Nationals 450 class for Arma Suzuki. The two parties could not reach an agreement on the suspension for his RMZ-450.
2010 Lawrence started off the 2010 season only four weeks after being released from Riverside County jail.[4] After a DNF at round one of the 2010 Monster Energy Supercross series he decided to take some time off to get back in shape. He came back at Anehiem 3 and crashed in the LCQ and did not qualify. He then came back at Indianapolis and put in a solid 10th-place finish, although having an altercation with rival Ryan Dungey.
2009 Lawrence started off the 2009 Supercross season with his own, J-Law Racing team and plans of defending his AMA West Coast Lites title. After a string of bad luck Lawrence decided to jump to the 450 premier class. He produced stellar practice times but was having trouble putting a solid run together in the main events. At Daytona Supercross Jason would put in the fastest lap times of the day and score a career high SX finish, placing 2nd, but leading the majority of the race before Chad Reed would pass him for the win. Following Supercross Lawrence decided to stick with the 450 Yamaha machine and compete in the premier class. Only to not finish a single moto until round 6 at Red Bud Track and Trail, then two races later getting his first career MX podium at Washougal MX with a 10-3 score.
