Ty is fine. He will figure out who he needs to be to survive in this business. He is unaffected by the white noise. He has a group that he listens to--primarily his Dad and family. Those are the people who have his ear--not the big mouths trying to tear him down. I am sure that Coy has chewed his ass a time or ten, and knows exactly who his son is. A petulant ass? Probably, but he wouldn't be the first to be considered as such at 19. Does Ty listen to everything his Dad says? No, but none of us did. Don't think for a second that there aren't some mind games already in the garage. Ty is a threat to those who are dominating the sport. He will have some rough times for sure--that is all part of it, but he will be fine. Many are making way too big of a deal out of what he has been up to, but that is what many like to do. It's going to be fun to watch Ty. It already is. I don't think Ty cares if he is hated, BTW.
