Then toward the end of the month, Ferry was seen on a Yamaha riding with the Monster Energy Yamaha Star Racing team. Last week, Ferry announced he had signed with Yamaha, but not the Star team as some had anticipated. Instead, the #75 announced he had joined what’s called the Yamaha Factory Amateur Team and would be getting ready to race the regionals round with his new squad. After one year on the 125cc machine, Ferry has made the jump to full-time 250F rider, as he will compete in 250 B modified and Schoolboy 2 at Loretta Lynn’s in early August.
This Yamaha-supported squad has some high-profile names to it including Gavin Towers (250F/450F), Logan Best (125), Crockett Myers (250F/450F), Wyatt Thurman (Supermini), Sage Lewis (250F), Kade Johnson (65cc), and new signee Avery Long (450F). But adding a star and big name in Ferry is a big sign for this team.
“NSA Yamaha would like to officially welcome Evan Ferry @lilreddog75 to the team. Evan comes from a legendary racing family with his dad, Tim Ferry, preceding in a successful race career. Evan will be competing in 250B Mod and Schoolboy 2 for our team. Welcome Ferry family!”
