Another Shot For Danny Eslick, In MotoAmerica Superbike

Great news... If anyone can get that Honda up there he is one of em. Does MA allow for the helping of the Hondas like AMA did?

 

That's great for the series, and Danny.

Aren't all the bikes Dunlop shrouded?

 

I like Hondas, but at that level, what would they choose that platform??

 

Hmmm wonder what happened to Mesa? Did they part ways or is this his new teammate?

 

Turbo Turtle Racing is a shop that specializes in Hondas.

They also have Stefano Mesa riding for them for the year in Superbike:

Looks like Mesa is locked in for the year and Danny is locked in for VIR. Regardless, more bikes on the grid is good for all!

 

He has done well on a Buell, Triumph, and a "outdated" gsxr, lets see how this Honda stacks up.

 

I ran into Ken and the Turbo Turtle guys at CMP. They had purchased the Honda assets and trailer from John-Chris Ulrichs last years effort. They are new and still working the bugs out but like someone said, more bikes on the grid. Oh, they are also getting advice from Ten Kate.

 

I think Honda is about the only brand he has never raced.

 

It would be awesome to see the Honda running towards the front. Hopefully Danny can make that happen.

 

GREAT news!

 

A few are Dunlop shod.....the rest are Dunlop shrouded.

 

First road race bike was a Honda RS125 I am 90% sure

 

Yup. you are exactly right. Completely forgot about that one.

 

Nice! When's the next race?

 

The 2015 rules package in Superbike and Supersport should be better for Honda motorcycles than the 2013-2014 Superbike and Sportbike rules package was. Closer to World Superbike and World Supersport rules.

 

this weekend @ VIR

 

VIR this coming weekend. See you there?

 

i'll be there to help a friend on the superstock 600 grid!
