Well, as previous BSB champ he does have some pulling power. And his dad certainly does have a few contacts.

Re: Taz
I've lost track of what seats are available in the various world series. I hope he gets something decent to give him a fair crack.

Re: Taz
It seems a bit late in the year to leave the team,especially considering his succes there.
He's leaving one of the best teams in the paddock.I wonder what he's got lined up in WSBK? Good luck to him wherever he ends up.
Who do we think will get the Mcams ride? Most of the main protagonists have announced who they'll be riding for next year & that's got to be one of the best teams in BSB. '

Re: Taz
Just seen that Harry Trulove has signed for Dynavolt Triumph is WSS which is Simon Buckmasters outfit so that’s another possible seat Taz might have gone into gone as Buckmaster, ni matter what you think of the bloke, normally fits in a Brit rider as one of his team

Re: Taz
That's a bit of an unknown. Where there any Hondas in WSS last year,or even the last few years?wull wrote: ↑Mon Dec 12, 2022 2:28 pm Finally confirmed.

Re: Taz
Honda stopped making the road going CBR600RR but there is a race only version still being turned out to feed the production racing classes. I can’t remember any Hondas since 2020 in WSS and even then I think it was only one team.Skub wrote: ↑Mon Dec 12, 2022 2:38 pmThat's a bit of an unknown.

Re: Taz
His new team mate hasn't done much in Moto3 or Moto2. On the surface there's nothing to suggest they'll do well. No data for the CBR and maybe no other Honda teams either,so they'll be on the back foot pretty much all season.
I'd love to hear the reasons for leaving a winning team for this.

Re: Taz
He has been quite clear on wanting onto the world scene, just like Brad Ray but as unknown quantities outside of the BSB paddock the ride options are limited. Sykes was able to get on a known seat as a known quantity but Ray took a ride that’s not a full season and Taz dropped to Supersport to try and get noticedSkub wrote: ↑Mon Dec 12, 2022 4:49 pm His new team mate hasn't done much in Moto3 or Moto2.

Re: Taz
Niall McKenzie is a wise man. There'll be some logic in this
Did I ever mention I beat NM once ?
