Not really suprised, who runs a EMI chassis nowadays? Not aware of any top teams running them. Tought to make sales if you are not winning on a big stage.

Why not. They are in racing business. They bought Eagle from Jerry Russel. They did not start a new company, it was an established business. I visitrd shop and it was very nice and clean shop. I might be a little wrong. They might have bought it from an Aussie that owned it for a very short time.

I think someone that was working at EMI that used to have a hand in making of chassis will once again get back into it so Rico and Kyle will be ok.

I dont know how much Eagle changed but Russell has jr1 now so imagine you can still get something close.And Brian Schnee will open his chassis shop back up .So i image all is good.Now Stallard micro guys may be in a pickle.

Is there an official announcement somewhere? Other than Rico and Brian Schnee's tweets, I haven't found anything - well, Google hasn't. Looks like business as usual on the website.

No one is out of a job, because they did not fold up operations.
