    Interview: Max Whale

    The only overseas racer currently committing to a full season in American Flat Track, 20-year-old Australian Max Whale is making waves (sorry). Progressing from 14th overall in 2018, to ninth in 2019, Whale was runner-up in the AFT Singles class standings last year, as a Kawasaki-mounted privateer, and is currently second, with a slim, but mathematical chance of winning the Singles title in 2021.

    11 Things We Learned From Volusia

    Vance & Hines Harley Still Has A Long Way To Go Harley's best finish from the Volusia double-header was delivered by new boy Dalton Gauthier, 7th on Friday. The next day not one of the three factory riders could get in the top 10. Gauthier was top again but this time in 11th, ahead of the more experienced Smith and Vanderkooi.. Yamaha Might Have Even Further To Go I can't imagine JD Beach had a pair of tenth places in mind when he signed up for a full season of AFT on the Est
