I personally would expect to see a different name on the shrouds.

I think one of the most interesting things this off season will bring us, is high profile racers signing with these smaller support teams. Would be a cool opportunity for a small team to grab a guy like Hartnraft or Mumford or Shimoda and really get some good results in. We need more teams like these to take the next step like HEP!

Well considering AJE doesn't follow through on any financial commitments of their own, this feels oddly good to read.

Going out on a limb here, but perhaps the two instances are related?

Title sponsor doesn’t pay, therefore team can’t meet financial obligations...

I had heard through a good source that Gas Monkey Energy was either a free or discounted sponsorship in year 1. Sort of a “prove it” type deal for the team to show marketing potential, with a fully paid sponsorship in year 2.

Just glad to see AJE still around if they no longer have a title sponsor.

Yes Gas Monkey Energy is no longer operating, we as a team had a good two year run with them...

That's a dam shame. Hard times. I also really wanted to hear Ralph say "Gas Gas Monkey Monkey"

Does anyone think Gas Gas is a really stupid name? No?

It has been received awkwardly outside of Spain, but it is colloquial there for "pin it", which is kinda badass for a racebike brand.

Uh correct me if I’m wrong but those are literally just red KTM plastics.

This is like MCR calling their black Suzuki’s “MCR450s”
