Cory Texter

Rider Bio Show Hide

Long-time American Flat Track racer Cory Texter enjoyed his finest season to date in 2019, winning multiple races and ultimately being crowned AFT Production Twins Champion. Texter, who first started riding at the age of four, fought long and hard to achieve that first-career title, both enduring and enjoying a career that had seen more than its fair share of peaks and valleys. His professional career started in 2008 and, by 2016, the Pennsylvanian had gradually built himself into one of the ten best AFT Twins riders on the planet. That season he twice finished on the podium, backing up his first career premier class top three taken at the Arizona Mile with a second at the Springfield Mile. However, he finished outside the top 20 in points the following season. He next moved to the AFT Singles class in 2018 hoping of rediscovering his confidence. While he did manage to claim a fourth-place race result, that desired career resurgence wouldn’t truly take place until his epic ‘19 Production Twins campaign. Texter came out of the gates swinging in 2019, dominating the opening three rounds of the season -- claiming pole, leading the most laps, and taking the checkered flag first each time out. He didn’t win another race all year, but he didn’t need to; Texter remained a consistent force near the front of the pack, adding five more results of fourth or better -- including a pair of podiums -- before his championship-winning season was complete. Texter made history in the Production Twins opener, when he and younger sister Shayna became the first siblings to ever win American Flat Track Main Events on the same day. Texter is a respected, well-liked figure in the paddock. He often serves as an unofficial voice for fans, privateers, and the sport more broadly alike. He’s a certified trainer, bicyclist, runner and family man.
