LOL, with his decision making skills, this makes sense!

I’ll never understand why he wouldn’t finish out his factory paying contract. Luckily, money isn’t everything and now he has a chance to prove himself. Hopefully it goes well.

Wasn't Wildcat racing a shoestring budget last year out of a Sprinter van or am I thinking of a different team?

I feel like Wildcat would benefit out of this deal more than anything. Getting that Red Dog $ involved.

Monster Energy Cup Superminis 2019 is the only thing I can think of

The writer of this press release should be ashamed of himself. Knowing that Evan is under a magnifier by his decision to leave Triumph you shouldn't screw up by recreating history. "Successful Amateur career", that is already a big one to call because he won two championships at Loretta, didn't check Mini O's or Ponca's others. Besides that he never won a Supercross future race. He won once the Monster Energy Supermini Cup. Noted he raced the Supercross Future races on Yamaha while he was testing day-in and day-out with a Triumph bike that couldn't be easy, but those results weren't great. His best was 7th.

You must be thinking of a different team for the sprinter, but I remember seeing something like they needed 40k to finish out the nationals.

Wildcat Racing has a Concept Hauler.

What’s the expectation for defined success here? Consistent top 20s with an occasional hit around the top 10-15?

250 privateer life is tough no matter how fast you are. Ty Masterpool wanted to stay on 250s outdoors last year but struggled to crack the top 15. Then he moved to 450s and we all saw what happened. 

Is Even even close to Ty’s speed outdoors? I find that hard to believe and I am actually rooting for the kid.

I just can’t see any better than 17-25ish. I don’t think he is a consistent points guy.

If you knew nothing about his dad, triumph, Instagram, how we got here, etc.... and all you had were his results and the knowledge that he signed with this team, you wouldn't even note the signing and if you did you'd say good for him for getting a ride and not having to do it all on his own. 

So good for him, we'll see what he does with it.
