The boys from the HRA Junior motocross team wrapped up another huge year with a National title, a State title and a farewell to Team Manager Andrew 'Ajay' Johnson.
Supported rider Nicklas Scott had a stellar season, taking out the Sunshine State Titles and ending his season by winning the South East Queensland Junior Championships.
The young rider also placed second in the Queensland State Motocross Championships on his CRF250.
Honda's junior racing sensation Jacob Wright became a National Champion, after winning the Wanneroo Australian National Titles in the 12-14 year old 85cc - 150cc class. Jacob earned second place in the Tivoli South East QLD Titles to top off his year and is now well settled into his CRF150 big wheel.
Ajay, manager of the HRA Junior MX team for 15 years, is retiring as team manager after a 27 year association with Honda.
Ajay started his time at Honda as a Champion Superbike rider, setting 27 major lap records during his career. During his time as Manager, he provided leadership for 33 riders and 24 support riders and the team flourished, achieving 650 firsts, 295 seconds, 162 thirds and 101 fourths. Overall, HRA riders brought home 53 State Titles, 23 Australian Motocross Titles, four Australian Supercross Titles, two Roost Rookies and two Thumper Titles.
"All good things must come to an end; my association with Honda over 27 years has remained strong and I hope it will continue," said Ajay.
"I'd like to thank everyone at Honda both personally and professionally for their incredible support over my 15 years as Team Manager."
