Ty Masterpool was off the radar for a while just a few months ago. He was racing with the BarX Suzuki team in the 250SX West Region of Monster Energy AMA Supercross, but suddenly stopped showing up at the races in January and was not active much on social media.
But he picked up a sponsorship from Sports Clips and was set to race a Kawasaki KX250 in the AMA Pro Motocross Championship as he prepped for the season. But after the first round, he decided to jump to the premier class. In his 450 Class debut at the Hangtown Motocross Classic, Ty Masterpool finished 7-7 for sixth overall, earning the FMF Privateer Power award from the series. At the Thunder Valley National, he qualified third overall and was looking forward to another strong day. Then he went down in the first turn and was dead last. Somehow, he charged to a fifth-place finish! Then in the second moto, he was running third in the late stages of the race until a pass by Dylan Ferrandis bumped the #81 back to fourth. Still a strong day, his 5-4 finishes gave him sixth overall. Here is the Texan’s recap of the day.
