Monster Energy Kawasaki Team Green Prepares for Ricky Carmichael Amateur Supercross

2016-03-04 17:12
Daytona International Speedway plays host to the Seventh Annual Ricky Carmichael Daytona Supercross (RCSX) March 6 – 7. Kawasaki Team Green™ will stack the field with the talents of Austin Forkner, Jordan Bailey, Lance Kobusch, Stilez Robertson, Jett Reynolds, Ryder DiFrancesco, Nick Romano and Hannah Hodges all looking to take home championships in their respective classes. These world-class athletes have been training for this event and are now poised to line up behind the gate.

Look for the number #214 of Forkner in the A Class as he races in preparation for his pro debut this summer. Along with charismatic B Class teammate and Florida native Bailey on the number 133 machine, as they look to lead Team Green to victory.

“Daytona should be good,” said Forkner. “I’ve been putting in work at the Farm for the past couple months and I’ve been out at the Kawasaki test track putting in laps. We have a great setup for the bike so I’m feeling good. I have been trying to ride on tracks with similar dirt to Daytona to get myself fully prepped for the race, I’m really looking forward to it.”

“The bike has been amazing,” said Robertson. “Physically, I’ve never felt better on and off the bike, as we’ve been putting in the laps at home and hours in the gym. I feel confident that we’re going to bring home some titles.”

“I’m really looking forward to the Daytona,” said Kobusch. “I’ve had a few small injuries since my win at the Monster Energy Cup, but I’m back to 100% and ready to get back up on the podium. Daytona has always been one of my favorite tracks to race and have always had luck there.”

“The offseason has been great,” said Reynolds. “After such a successful 2015 season, I’m really looking forward to racing in 2016. Daytona is unlike any other track we race on with big ruts and jumps, which I love. I can’t wait for the gate drop of Moto 1.”
