Yeah, I'd say he's the genuine article. I really like the kid. Seems to have a good, level head on his shoulders...doesn't come off at all arrogant or overly cocky.

Fantastic result for the kid, rode really well. Looking forward to watching him over the next few years, I think he's about to be the best 250 rider we've seen for a little while, since KR/Eli/Dean/BB era.

That was an impressive ride, for sure.

The same AC that won 3 supercross races his first season? I'm sure he feels just fine.

Agreed.

AC does not lack talent or speed... but injuries and 8 feet of growth in the last two years have intervened! Lol

I think AC and AF will be on opposite Coasts. AC East. If I had to bet.

That was 3 years ago. That's like talking about Stewart's 2014 season, no ones doing it.

AF did something that AC never did his first season. Race every race of his first outdoor season as well as scoring a moto win and overall. On top of that almost gained 30+ points on Savatgy in the last race for 3rd overall in the points.

This day an age we are all out for out best intrest. Most of us are weekend warriors. On that note all the high top riders Dungey, villipoto, js7.

What do they all have in common.

They all got older grew up made the sport work for them some better then other "seven" gear but most importantly got married and had kid on way.

Traveling and being on road is difficult just in tradesman point view imagine all the outdoor/sx series

Case in point it's all about the KIDS

Thats a helluva season finish even for seasoned veterans.
Kid rode well, smart. His parents gotta be proud.

Great outdoor season for this kid, his team has to be pumped on him. Great job!

And for all the AC comparison comments, who cares? AC completed a series, that's a win too.
