Loved ones are mourning the unexpected passing of Austin Behrens. MXPTV wrote on Facebook, “Austin since the early days in D34 racing and winning on PWs. Cool to see what he did with his training camps helping the next generation of racers. We talked a bit during a shoot on Long Island a few years ago and what a positive attitude he had that I’m sure reflects the type of person he was. Thoughts go out to the Behrens family during this difficult time.”

Austin had a special place in my heart and I took to him well . We chased him at least two times a year where ever he was training. Austin would drop anything and always get in my in for privates or classes even when it was his off weekend. He never gave up on me and always believed me in . I appreciate you Austin for believing in me and like you said “I’ll always be there for you “
