Austin Forkner: "That was honestly one of the funnest things I've ever done..." 8

Winners Circle
Scoring a win at Daytona? Yeah, that's cool. But celebrating with a big burnout in front of the crowd? That takes it to another level.

Austin was so fast on race day live. Unbelievable to see him mess up in the big rythem and literally hold it pinned and blitz the section like whoops. The kid just rips, hope he keeps on winning.

Great ride!.Once again home-schooling rears it's ugly head. Seemingly insignificant things such as using improper grammar while being interviewed are contributors that prevent our beloved sport from achieving the BIG PAYDAY $$$$ sponsorship these athletes truly deserve. PGA...Tennis...F1...etc.

art861mx- Not sure if it’s homeschooling. Very few kids in this country can speak English these days. It’s sad that nobody cares enough to correct them.

Hello Travis, that reminds me of a quote by the late American novelist James Baldwin:
"For these are all our children, we will profit by or pay, for whatever they become."

So true! I never thought I’d grow up and become my father, complaining about the youth of this nation, but this country is doomed with these waterhead kids we’re raising. This is where coddling, participation trophies, and “putting your kids feeling first” gets us.

Watch older races with their interviews. Motocross has always been a sport that draws a different type of person than say the PGA. Dudes are just gnarlier. I agree that our youth are in trouble, which in turn our world. The feelings first thing kills me. But, Austin didn’t seem to sound too bad.
