The young Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki rider, Austin Forkner will have the red plate next weekend in Arlington.

The 250 LCQ had to be the craziest LCQ race of 2019 thus far! There were all kinds of battles and crashes throughout the race but it was Josh Osby, Lorenzo Locurcio, Chase Marquier and Wilson Fleming who would qualify for the main event. Marshal Weltin and Jayce Pennington put on a hard charge and they battled back and forth, but it wasn’t enough to make the main event and they’ll have to try again next weekend.
