These are the moments that both the children and the parents remember. If that kid doesn't have a bike and asks...the first thing his parents will think of will be this. The type a man your child could turn into And from the child's pov, this is what causes them to get 1 more rep, to push, to have the opportunity to do the same in 15 years
I just want to say Mechanic Dan is the man. More of him on this channel and the rest of the team. The way your team jives and cheers you on regardless of results is second to none bro. Enjoy this time in your career and be safe!
I remember him as a little kid blasting around the track in Rocky Hill. He was a little rocket back then, the 330 on a little Kawasaki. I have a great video of my son at about 15 years old, parking his YZ 125 and jumping on my CRF450 with AJ on his Kawasaki 65 ( possibly an 85 ). They were ripping it ! I can’t believe it was so many years ago. Great job AJ and the Team !
PreMixPoppa is loving me some Mechanic Dan and Driver Jamie. Love hearing pre and post race commentary. Cameraman Cam? This dude is killing it!! Sooo proud of this team!!
So pumped for you AJ and all the guys!! Seeing you qualify out of the heat race was the highlight of the race for me! Kenny winning was also amazing, but second to what you accomplished in my opinion.
You are doing great , never give up , the kids love it , you have so many next generation riders looking up to you , win or lose the kids love the no give up you have in you , the kids really see it , the coach
8:00 min. Mark..... first time I ever raced Glen Helen MX I came back into the pits same way! 2nd overall with a rear flat in last moto.... push beyond your boundaries when it matters most my friend!!!! Congrats on this one AJ🍻
This was really cool to see. This year my level of interest and entertainment has been elevated with what Deegan has been doing, and watching AJ do what he is doing. I haven't felt adrenaline pumping in a LCQ, but AJ had me pumping at the LCQ in Houston, with his second place. I knew the next step would be making it into the main straight out of the heat, which he was able to do at Indy. WELL DONE.
super proud of you AJ!!! fun to ride along on your journey! i used to race. i want to race again. watching you helps me keep perspective on how much work it is and yet how rewarding just to be in it.
Bro, I’m fucking proud of you!! I told you before, ever since you started the Moto academy and you have been riding with people like Jet your skill is improving FAST. I truly feel like if you keep going like this then you MIGHT slip into a top 10 finisher before anybody even realizes what happened. That’s what I’m waiting to see next. Just focus on one milestone at a time. Now you’re making main events, just shoot for one place better. Next race try to get P18, then when you get that push for P17. Before you know it you’ll be on a podium looking out over everybody cheering your name. Remember, just have fun. You are doing something for a living that most people only dream they can do. Don’t take it for granted, live that shit up, because you only live once... and your life is pretty damn good.
Thanks again to you guys for stopping at the end of the night to talk to me and my friend! He was saying all day how he wanted to ask you that question and for my first supercross you definitely gained a fan! You guys seemed like awesome people
dude im so damn proud of you this season...you do alot for us as fans. but i think youre starting to remind yourself you are riding for you.. i said it before the season, i knew you could be up there. youve put in the work and i think that work has rebuilt the desire. your highest finish has not come yet but soon daniel son
What a ride its easy to lose sight of whats important when the noise around you is so loud but you gave it 100% and it showed Respect ( it ain't easy ) I like your work ethic and your drive and i think you are a good embad-asador for this sport ..
Congrats, Fast Cat!! Nice work!! Awesome that you take the time with the little rippers too! Moto Academy!! Come to Rome Georgia and have a class at my private track!! (built by MX201) Cheers 🤘
I've watched your journey over the last couple of years, and words can't describe how proud and excited I am to see your name on the Main event board! Congratulations man!! A job very well done, keep pushing!
Glad to see you let it hang out more AJ. You’re form is legit on a bike but maybe holding you back a tad trying to be so clean. Nice ride plenty more to come 👍
I am so very happy for you! I imagine that many, if not all of your followers, friends, family and students knew that you could do it. You are a very skilled rider... now all you have to do is get into The Baker's Factory boot camp and you can go 100% for most of the race! 🤣 You deserve this. 👍
Absolutely love all your guys content and I hope soon I will be riding at your level! Was watching for you the whole time at indy and was soo pumped to see you ride in person for the first time! Love eveything you do teaching us how to ride
They had your transponder wrong in the heat in stadium. I saw the van with no setup in the fan fest, then no 330 on the board and was crushed until I found you on the track. Hell of a weekend AJ!
Good ride last, Looking forward to seeing you from track side tomorrow, (flag crew). Will find you tomorrow regarding a class in MI for the Vintage Moto Series club.
@@AjCatanzaro couldn't find ya. Saw ya on track. You rode awesome by the way. I did not go to the Honda rig. Figured with our lovely weather you guys were stacked in pretty tight. Didn't want to make a nuisance of myself.
Dude... that was awesome to see. - And hey AJ... late 20's to early 30's, these days, are the BEST age to be a pro athlete (other than major injuries playing a part) - And that was cool the guy from STAR racing came over to let you know. - PUSH... PUSh.. do not go gentle in the good night... rage, rage against the dying of the light. **Did you get my email dude...???
The kid giving you his jersey, and you had him sign it 😭 so wholesome!
❤️❤️❤️

@@TRGP331 my friend, the Moto Academy crew is the best! I want to support as much as possible.
@@chaddunn1008 I couldn't agree more! Our Moto Academy family is the BEST!
Great attitude from your whole group! Your message about riding with technique for safety, is spot on. Keep the momentum Rollin!
Tucker Carpenter made this WHOLE video a lot better!! and the fact that AJ remembered right away was even better!!
he loved every minute of it to! was so excited to see him!
Congrats, man! It's great to see you out there happy and riding.

I love when the driver is talking with a beer in his hand. Great video 🤙

Dude, it’s really cool that you make time for the fans, especially the little kids ❤️
