GasGas & GoFasters have released Justin Williamson from the GasGas team effective March 1st, 2010. We regret to make decisions as these but it was decided to terminate the relationship due to concerns about the approach to the GNCC program for 2010. Justin is a young, fun and respectable rider with a good future ahead of him. We feel that this is the best decision for GasGas in regards to the US market at this time and hope for all the best for Justin in his new program


My guess is he didn't want all the traveling without more compensation, maybe bring his girlfriend with him and/or just be home more. Something along those lines

Just a guess from the above statement and Justin's blog.

If he wins that series, perhaps the doors will open for him again to go back to GNCC. I'd love to see him on a Gas Gas, but hope for the best for him over anything else.
Just think, if he dominates the Extreme Dirt Series on a four year old bike, somebody ought to take a look at him. I wish I were filthy rich enough to field a team.
