Use the sticky thread for all the links and info.

Like i said in the practice thread, I know is round one and everyone is all giddy like a school girl, i know i am, but please lets stay civil in this thread, plenty of other threads will pop up if you want to fight and argue, this one is to talk about the racing!

Lets get it on!!

Spent many many hours, days, and weeks at tracks, staying in motorhomes with the Forkners (naturally more so with Mike). He and my son are only a couple of weeks apart in age and geographical proximity. Austin had "it" at a very young age. What has been so noteworthy is intense desire to win, even on 50's. So its kind of bittersweet for this day to come. Its exciting but it also is a declaration that life is advancing and the kids are grown up.

Having that been said, his raw speed is unreal but the step to this level has so many intangibles that he may have a few hiccups on the way. It would surprise me if he beat Adam C.

Very cool bro, he seems like such a mellow down to earth kid, really dig that kid!

Maybe he can pull a Josh Grant at hangtown his rookie race and bang a holeshot!! Woohoo

Pro circuit boys look good. Knowing that Tonus is a better racer than a qualifier so i expect him to up his pace a bit in the race, if he can start upfront with the rest of them he's top 5 for sure.

Bogle went down at the highest part of the track, we could see it on the live stream. Picked himself up an road too the pits as his bike was bent up. I don't think he really hurt himself apart from some bruises.
