Pit Bits mentions Ferry possibly leaving Triumph for outdoors. 

Sounds like Ferry and Swoll do not get along at all and the race team is not running all that well. Parts issues, staff issues......etc.

Wonder where Lil Red Dog will end up?

He seems to switch teams often.

What are the parts issues? Is the supply of Triumph parts for the bikes lacking, or aftermarket stuff?

The bikes seem quick with Jalek getting several good starts.

Didn’t Swoll sort of start his career being coached by Timmy?

Agreed. Granted none of us know the whole story, but on the surface with him going from Husky support, to Yamaha support, to Triumph and now out at Triumph, all in the span of a year tells me something about the kid and or his circle of people just doesn't jive with these teams.

I thought Swoll was really close to them after his dad was in prison.

In between Yamaha and Triumph wasn't he on his "own program" too?

I would say that it isnt a Triumph problem. 

Its a Ferry problem. 

There will be no shortage of people wanting that ride, Savatgy and Swoll will be decent, MXGP team have been knocking it out of the park so far.

Swoll and Joey outdoors will get the job done. Ferry needs to do whatever he feels is best for his career; but, as others have pointed out…his career “musical chairs” is not a good look in the face of mediocre results.

I’m a fan of the Ferry family. I hope he simply settles down and focuses on results. Get results and prove your worth. He’s got the skills. So…”Show me the money!”

Was Ferry contracted to run outdoors? Maybe SX only deal?

Imagine how pumped Joey must be waiting on the outdoor series.

I can't recall Hewitt ever giving up on a rider or a rider giving up on Hewitt's team, dating back to Extreme Team Green. He's loyal sometimes to a fault.

If true I predict a Team Ferry/PulpMX/Yamaha this summer.

Why even try for a different team at this point? His pops can buy him a couple of trick/fast 250Fs and hit the nationals if he’s really got it. He took the last year or 2 away from the amateur nationals to show up and barely make a main. If you go into hiding like that, you come out on pace and swinging imo.

Ferry is supercross only, so of course he is looking for a ride. 
 

 Also, him and Jalek were good friends, I thought they still were, who knows

Absolutely.  Looking forward to seeing Jalek outdoors finally healthy. He's won a National before

Either college or learning a trade.

He would end up making more money in a trade
