it seems like the guy has dropped off the face of the SX/MX earth, anyone have any idea what he is up to, if he is still employed at Star/Valli, or if he will be at any of the Nationals? always liked his style on and off the track.

So you guys want to know the real story behind Austin stroupe? I live in lake Elsinore which many people know as a motocross haven. Stroupe moved out here from the east cost and started hanging out with me and a few friends. No w me an my friends aren't the best role models but stroupe ended up hanging out with one kid the most, "Kumar". Now Kumar was a drug dealer who sold roxycottin, a less potent form of OxyContin. I seen Austin put 100$ a day up his nose just wasting his talent and money. He would be nodding off on the couch any time I came over. The kid turned into a looser. The team found out about this and told him many times to stop but he never did. Finally they just said F it and cut him. That's why he's working at his dads resturaunt back at home and wot ever be on the pro stage again.

Wow! That's a shame. He completely got off track. Maybe he's turned it around now?

Even if that's true I'll still pull for him when he gets back out there.
A lot of people get suckered into a bad addiction with those pain killers, opiates are fucking dangerous. It can happen to fast kid like austin or anyone else. wrong place wrong time.
Still remember this guy banging a holeshot and going RVs speed in his very first race, always been a fan.

Just a damn shame, kid was super talented. I watched him from 60's all the way up and it just sux. I don't understand addiction, because I don't have that personality thankfully.

Highly doubt he'll make a comeback. This wasn't discussed in mx media because the team didn't feel like completely destroying the kid. Although fans may not know exactly what happened, the teams in the industry know very well how he went out. Unless he's a privateer or signs to a miracle team I don't see him coming back.

This needs to be clipped quick..... Nothing like bashing a person on a public forum. I would bet this post is a little biased. Did stroupe bang your girl or something? Was he faster than you? I dont know what it is but this type of posting makes me sick.

Bashing? Whose bashing? I was friends with him and ya maybe it is a little biased because he dipped out back to the east coast while owing me 500$. His truck broke so I loaned him cash not thinking he would do that. But ask him yourself if the story is true if you don't believe me. I'm not the only one he still owes money too either...

If anyone on here thinks he didn't come back because he "couldn't pass a conclusion test" like you we're led to believe. Lets be real. A conclusion isn't an on going injury, eventually you heal unless you've had too many. And a kid with talent like his? Why would you not strive and do everything you can to come back ex specially with the ride he had? Come on guys...

You literally said the kid turned into a loser and that he was a drug addict. If this is fact and you want to be all truthful whats your real name then. Why is this your first post? The only location is USA. Anyone can claim to be a riders buddy behind a keyboard. Im calling bullshit on this one.

Call bullshit all you want. The kid moved to canyon lake and his parents paid for his condo that he lived in. Kumar moved in with him and that's how it all started. Wtf do I care if you believe me? Someone posted what happened to stroupe and I answered. I created this profile specifically to answer that question. I don't go on forums.

Kind of funny this thread came up because friend of mine ran into Stroupe yesterday. Supposedly he's starting to ride again. Not sure on the details. That's just the rumor.

I'm pretty sure Stroupe's family isn't hurting in the money department, I'd take it more as who he hung with, start looking at all these kids and look at the common denominator when they hit so cal.

I'd have to agree with you there. Is it the pressure that makes them break or is it the Cali-bro influence that does?

I tweeted this to Stroupe's twitter so maybe he'll come and shut us all up.

Definetly the influence of a California lifestyle. I mean its paridise out in so-cal and everyone out here loves to party. For someone not used to it all it takes is trying a drug once to get hooked. Those pills are pretty much legal heroin. Pressures only break you if your weak minded. Stroupe didn't come across like that. He had a sick pad on the lake and a brand new Titan on 26"s. we would party there at first, just drinking and would have rediculous amounts of girls there. Once he started on the pills though that shit stopped and he just wanted to be fucked up all by himself.

the common denominator isn't from so cal, but there happens to be too much to do there. look at most of the pros who came to so cal, from other states, they get in trouble here, no supervision, money in their pocket and so much to do there. If you lived in bumf$%^ small town usa you'd be riding or working out, not partying it up.

"Conclusion test?"
Yes, it tests your brain's ability to take certain basic information and draw a logical conclusion. For instance, the fact that this thread still exists leads me to the conclusion GuyB and Co. are not paying attention to the internets right now!
