I talked to Austin after Glen Helen and it's apparent his expectations of himself have quickly gone from "possible top ten, hope for top five and a podium is like a win" to I think I can win. He was fun to watch last weekend at GH and can't wait to see him progress as the series moves on. I'm starting to think he can possibly be a player for this title.

Here's my interview with Austin after Glen Helen.

It's a shame no one seems to have vid of him pulling the trigger thru the new "un-rhythm" section. He schooled the entire field thru there with his triple / triple line.

Cool edit (except for the song). Austin had a great start and should add some excitement to the series.

Too bad I didn't have a media pass. That section was so crowded that any footage of that section didn't turn out Sad

Doesn't seem unrealistic to think that he can win. He was right there in the second moto and has obviously shown the speed. Consistency might be an issue as with many rookies, but I cannot wait to see how it all unfolds!

Good job on the video but the music doesn't just suck, it SUCKS!!! However, the music on your Glen Helen recap video is great, much better.

I like the video. I would also like to make a song about how bad that song sucks.

Kind of reminds me of a short kid from the late 90's riding #70 Kawasaki and he, from what I recall, stuck around for a while...

Redbud and Millville are a few tracks that he has considerable laps on. If I was a betting man I would say he will win one of them.

Very well done. Seriously good camera work.


I gotta say though, considering that every "insta banger" out there has some rap shit playing in the background, why not toss in something that would separate your edits from the masses?


God forbid some metal came back into the moto-vidoeo market.


Just an outsiders opinion...keep up the good work!

So, you were there?

Or was this a phone, an email, or text interview?

Just asking nicely. :-)

Most encouraging post yet. Thank you man! That's the first rap song I used in an edit so far but I regret it now! Next time I will stick to my usual song choice haha

You guys with your musical complaints are just being grouchy. Music is fine. Everyone has different musical taste, so what?


Nice video.

Thanks man! I didn't think the song was as bad as people are making it out to be, but I won't use it or anything close to it next time! Tongue

Alec,

I'm sure there's a crowd who likes that song, but doesn't seem to be popular with most. There are other hip hop songs that would be more appealing. If your goal is to attract as many viewers as possible, then it's probably smart to use "safer" soundtracks. Good job on the videos.

Good luck Austin! Great kid and family from right here in Missouri!
Few more fast kids from Missouri making their way: Benny Bloss, Lance Kobush, and the Stack brothers.
