This kid deserves a ride, 2nd in the 450 A, 2nd in the Open Pro Sport
at the 2016 JS Freestone Spring Championship
2nd 250 A, 2nd 250 All-Star A/B (14+) 2nd Open Pro Sport
at the 2016 RC Amateur Supercross.

I'm shocked that Monster energy Team Green Kawasaki didn't sign him
this year...? I know he got some help at RC Amateur SX, from team
Smartop MCR.

Coming in 2nd behind Austin Forkner, beating, Sean Cantrell, Bradley
Taft, Michael Mosiman, Chase Sexton and others who have rides...

I would like to see Team Green pick him up for the 2017, then go pro
in the outdoor nationals (Austin Forkner route)

How old is he? He's been in A class (big bikes) since 1/15/2014...

Maybe he's a late bloomer.... I'm not knocking him but there are very few first place listed... Mitch can't sign everyone...

He has one win in the Pro/AM's in 2 years... Like I said... Maybe he's a late bloomer...

Here is the only race he Won listed above... I never heard of any of these riders he beat...

Pretty sure he's 18, just he moved up to the A class pretty early instead of staying the course in B for a long time. He's gradually been getting faster past couple of seasons. He's definitely on an upswing right now. Pretty sure you will see him finish out the year as an amateur and turn pro at some point in 2017. He hasn't done any AX yet to get those points, so soonest you would be able to see him in SX is East coast 2017.

I could be wrong, but doesn't he have some sort of deal with Motoconcepts Team?

Not sure the extent of the "deal", but they did indeed give him support at the RCSX. Not really surprising though, as Cameron trains/stays at ClubMX, as does Mike Alessi. The times that I've been out to Club and watched Cameron ride, his style and speed definitely catch your attention in a "who the hell is that?" kind of way.

GuyB posted this great picture from the RCSX of MA800 helping Cameron suit up. "Caption this photo", anyone? lol

His style speaks for itself. I have to imagine we'll see him on the gate at Monster Cup as one of the expected favorites..

Sweet photo, wonder where you got it...


Before that race (Mini O's) I'd never even heard of him. Figured it was just a fluke but he's backed it up a number of times there and also at Daytona. Finally talked to him a bit at Freestone, seems like a good kid.

Great helmet cam video of Austin Forkner battling with Cameron McAdoo at the 2016 RCSX in Daytona. Hell of a save by Cameron at the 6:15 mark, but ultimately cost him the win.

That's pretty cool in my opinion. How many other pro racers of Mike Alessi's caliber would be there supporting and helping their amateur racing training partner with getting their boots off? True testimony of my friend Mikes character and humility.

He is 17 or 18. As mentioned earlier he turned pro early. I remember him being in the same class as my son on 60's-80's at some am nationals. He was a decent rider but not to the level he is at now. At the am races Forkner, Sexton, etc where in some of the same races and he wasnt on their level then. He has really stepped up his game.
