Wednesday, March 16, 2016 | 2:00 PM
Monster Energy Team Green Kawasaki’s Austin Forkner was one of the top finishers following two days of racing at the 7th Annual Ricky Carmichael Daytona Amateur Supercross (RCSX), which was held on the infield of the Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida, March 6-7.
Austin Forkner came away with two titles, one in the Open Pro Sport class and the other in the 250 A class. The wins, however, didn’t come easily, as he had to fend off a number of tough competitors, such as Bradley Taft, Sean Cantrell and Cameron McAdoo.
Jett Reynolds was another big winner. The Team Green Kawasaki rider took the number-one plate in the 85 (9-11) and 85 (9-12) classes.
North Carolina native Jordan Jarvis returned to her winning ways in the Girls Sr. (12-16) class. In addition, Jarvis was able to capture her very first Women Amateur (12+) RCSX Championship.
In hopes of defending his 2015 RCSX Championships, Matthew LeBlanc lined up on the gate in both the 65 (10-11) and 65 (7-11) divisions where he ended up taking home the championships once again. In addition, LeBlanc also placed second in 85 (9-11).
Kylie Fasnacht went 2-1 in the first WMX race of the season.
Other big winners included Mitchell Falk (KTM) in the 250 B Limited class, Jalek Swell (Husqvarna) and Peirce Brown (KTM) in the Schoolboy 1 & 2 divisions, Taft in the 250 All Star A/B (14+) class and Michael Byrne in the Jr. 25+ and Vet 35+ classes.
