A fresh chapter awaits Tarran Mackenzie as the 31-year-old Scottish rider prepares for a high-profile switch to the British Superbike Championship (BSB) with factory backing from BMW. The 2021 BSB champion is set to lead the newly transitioned Scars Racing squad, bringing his wealth of international experience back to the domestic series after spending recent seasons competing on the world stage.
Reflecting on his previous campaign in the production-based world championship, the rider noted significant progress despite his season being cut short by a heavy crash during his home event at Donington Park. Having secured a career-best fourth-place finish in the premier class during the opening round at Phillip Island alongside a previous Supersport race victory, the determination to return to winning ways remains stronger than ever.
The newly formed alliance with Scars Racing—run by team bosses Dale McElveen and Leigh Finlay—presents a compelling prospect. Following their success in capturing the Supersport crown with Ducati machinery, the team is stepping up to the premier Superbike class equipped with official support from BMW Motorrad Motorsport and bolstered by upcoming technical rule changes.
"Thanks to Dale and Leigh, I have a fantastic opportunity to return to BSB with Scars Racing BMW. The official factory support is a massive plus, and given the new regulations, we have a really strong season ahead of us," expressed the rider, highlighting his rigorous recovery and readiness for the upcoming winter testing program.
Sharing the garage with 25-year-old teammate Rory Skinner, the team aims to establish an immediate impact in the highly competitive domestic championship as they kick off their comprehensive pre-season testing schedule.
