Racer Ed Marchini and tuner Dave Pressler are at Road America pitted separately from the PJ1/Tech Star Industries/Team Turfrey 250cc Grand Prix team. When asked about the situation, Marchini said that he was not provided with what the team had agreed to provide him.

Team Owner Brian Turfrey was even more tight-lipped, saying “I’d rather not get into a bunch of mud-slinging. Ed’s a good guy. Let’s just say that we agreed to disagree and go our separate ways.”

Marchini is sixth in the MBNA 250cc Grand Prix point standings coming into Road America.

Meanwhile, Turfrey revealed that his team will not compete in the AMA 250cc Grand Prix Series next year, instead switching to 600cc Supersport.

“At the end of the year we’ll either have a really big sale or a really big bonfire,” Turfrey said.
