Joe, it is our countrys custom to offer up one our monster energy girls as a token of our gratitude and a way to help rookie SX'ers relax before motos. It is my hope that Gieco Honda still adheres to one of our nations most treasured customs. Good luck Joe, you seem like a really good dude and i do hope you hit all your marks and reach all of NEW goals now that you are a FACTORY Rider!!! Awesome job, keep it up and out work everybody!
This kid put in a lot of work to get himself ready for pro Supercross. Had heard early on his lap times were 8 to 9 seconds slower than his teammates. The biggest difficulty being the whoops. Hats off to Joe though because he figured out the whoops and got his lap times right where they need to be.
Met Jo at Loretta’s last year and talked to him in the pits before his race, he’s such a calm and chill guy. Next day saw him riding his bike warming up in the morning. Such a cool and dedicated racer. I’ll be watching him for the years to come. I can’t wait to see him win some titles and championship. Let’s goooo Jo!!!!!
I've been waiting for this little ninja for a while to go pro! Geico Honda team by far my favorite team in the Paddock. Dunge owning part just makes it sweeter. I love our sport!
Jo you rode awersome in the 2021 super cross season, I have worked with Japanese people in the past and they are always a good laugh and hard working... Keep at it young grass hopper
So interesting I was just thinking that really there should be a lot more awesome Japanese racers !! Hey don’t just think the States are where it’s at ! Canada and Europe ! Good luck !
I didn't understand anything he said. Because I don't know English. But in the end I understood that he is happy and was moved. So I'm Brazilian I love motocross a lot. I have no money to make
As I was going to say I don't have the money to do what I love the most. He was very happy to see people achieving his dream. For me and very good to see this, I really admire seeing these pilots there
From time to time i want also to be a great supercross/motocross rider, thou my family can't afford it right now for my dreams career but unfortunately 😔 i wouldn't stop dreamin
I don't know why there isn't even a Japanese rider at big events like the AMA in the US, they didn't think that most brand of those RacingBikes are from Japan.😂😂😂
Hes a big draw for japanese fans. Hes worth any leg up he gets for being japanese. I'd worry about affirmative action getting in the medical community or pilots or something.
@@roosdad1 Oh shush. No one is complaining about affirmative action about Roczen or Marvin. This kid did well in his first race. If he sucks, he'll be out soon enough.
@@s4awd2 Glad you brought up people that actually raced thru our classes. Long hauls. You missed the point. You're just another arguing person, that don't like the truth.

You can tell he's just so happy to have the opportunity best of luck to him can't wait to see him on the track

@@DorianHerniote what do you mean ?
@@THEPAULFOOT Did you see this guy on the track ? Cuz he's fast as fook
@@DorianHerniote yea dude and your right it's bee such a strange year too can't wait to see how he does in outdoors as well
I am a huge Geico Honda fan. And i hope this kid stays on the team for a long time.
This didn't age well. I was super bummed when Geico Honda shut its doors, such a great team with loads of talent.
@@dealspeed6756 yeah

Humble kid and wish him the best. Also Wish Jett didn’t get injured. Having Jo and Jett to cover East and West is a killer combo.
頑張れ！JO！！！

America is rooting him on!🇺🇸🔥 アメリカはJO SHIMUDAを応援しています！😄

Super cool kid

小学生の頃は同じコースで走ってたのに今では生きてる世界も違う。。

I wish I had these top equipment that you guys have
I have a CRF 230 and I already won a few races with it Who knows, maybe one day I can have these top equipment there, it would be a dream for me
Congrats a rookie 3rd place !
God I like this kid when I saw him get a fifth place and he was so happy I became instantly a joe fan
👍👍👍
dude is shy ,hope he gets some wins!
Who did the edit on this? What was your point here 4:01? Give the young man some respect.
Did his Dad/Mom directly work for Honda in Japan? Or were they Corporate Sponsors? This doesn't just happen....
You'll get some answers in that video : ua-cam.com/video/SsNb6sLXW9w/v-deo.html
Crazy I heard he couldn’t speak English. Well sounds good to me.
Incredible he got a factory ride in the best team no being top ten on amateurs, maybe something with his eyes...
Absolutely like the spanish guys on the Repsol team. Alll advertizing but he got in the top 10 in that race so win win.
From time to time i want also to be a great supercross/motocross rider, thou my family can't afford it right now for my dreams career but unfortunately 😔 i wouldn't stop dreamin
Back to Honda

@@DorianHerniote seu cu
Not sure he got champ series .
I hope roczen can take him under his wing and make this kid shine
I don't know why there isn't even a Japanese rider at big events like the AMA in the US, they didn't think that most brand of those RacingBikes are from Japan.😂😂😂
Oi e rai motocross
Seems to me he should have went Euro or whatever.
Too much “likes”
He brought us the corona
It’s a joke don’t take it set
Seriously
politics! That's it! A twist on affirmative action!
Hes a big draw for japanese fans.
Hes worth any leg up he gets for being japanese.
I'd worry about affirmative action getting in the medical community or pilots or something.
@@michaelsrite822 this isn't Japan, champ. This is American motorcycle association

Ben Thare so did this kid. If he sucked I’d agree w you. He’s so far in the top 10 in the past few races. Racing is racing regardless of politics.
When is japan nationals going show there bikes for 2020 season
