'I'm VERY much nearer the END of this journey than the START' - PHILIP NEILL

Спорт

The teams roster of riders reads like a who's who of Road Racing royalty and this chat is just a glimpse of that history.

    The only channel worth watching all the adverts for, absolutely fantastic. Another great interview, I only wish Hector & Philip Neil would write an autobiography, the stories those men could tell would be worth a read. Road racing loyalty! 🏍️👑🏁☘️

    Wow. Philip Neil! He & Hector have virtually defined what racing is for years. They're passionate, they're racing for the right reasons, it's not a Vanity project. And the people they've worked with ...Guy, Hutchy, DJ, Anstey, Archibald. Now Stuart Shendon who also worked with Kevin Schwantz. Absolutely fantastic 👍

    Phillip is a man of deep thought based on time served experience, DT made the right decision to “step back”, and having just watched this in mid June we all now know that he bossed the TT . Rory is just a natural talent that still be in moto 2, their loss our gain . Thanks Dave

    TAS racing has a fascinating history of riders over the years with so much success. They also know what price some riders give chasing their dreams. Hopefully Davey will bring back a P1 over the next few days.

    Agreed completely, Jon - hopefully we’ll get to do a full chat later in the year and talk about the highs and lows. Hopefully DT can bring more highs 🤞🏼

    Hector and Phillip Neil have given so much to racing for many years with many great riders . Probably their greatest rider had he not been killed at Silverstone in British GP in 1983 was Norman Brown one of only a select band of Riders to win the Senior TT at the first attempt as he did in 1982, some rider he was.

    Great to hear from Philip on the team and a good follow on from Davey's interview showing reasons for the way things really had to go for the team .I do hope that Philip and the team will continue for a while yet in superbike these interviews just show what's involved both in the amount of work getting funding in for teams not an easy job for all involved .👌👍 Cheers guys .

    When I did schoolboy mx nationals Philip was one of the top riders of that time , the Irish invasion including the chambers brothers, coincidentally same class as the late paul bird also bloody fast in their day.

    Thanks, Shrew! A little secret… I went into that one blind because most of my kit was back at the house. We asked if Philip was available the following day, he said no but I am now if you want to do it! Glad we had the mics and a phone, bare minimum kit 🤦🏼‍♂️

    Thanks Neil! To say he caught me off guard would be an understatement (hence the unusual camera angle with the phone rather than the regular cameras) we asked if he was free on the Friday, he said no but I am in an hour… so all done with no notes and very little kit. So glad I had the mics with me! 😳
