Conrod Motorsport Launches for 2026 TT Races

No sooner than the news broke that Burrows Engineering and RK Racing had parted ways with Conor Cummins did the announcement come that Conor has formed his own Team which will be competing at the 2026 Isle of Man TT Road Races…

CUMMINS LAUNCHES CONROD MOTORSPORT FOR TT 2026

WORDS: IOM TT RACES OFFICIAL

Conor Cummins has announced the launch of his own Conrod Motorsport team for the 2026 Isle of Man TT Races, marking a bold new chapter in his career as he prepares to celebrate 20 years since his TT debut.

Inspired by his successful Douglas-based coffee business Conrod’s, launched in 2015, Cummins’ new team signals both a personal milestone and a fresh competitive challenge. The initial programme will see Conrod Motorsport contest the two Superstock TT races in 2026 on a machine to be confirmed, while Cummins continues to review his options for the Superbike and Supersport classes.

Speaking of the new venture, Conor said: “I’m really looking forward to the new challenge of running my own team. It’s a big step and a bit of a leap into the unknown, but it’s something I’ve considered doing at various stages throughout my career. With the growth of the business, now feels like the right time, and I’m really excited to be bringing my two passions together.”

“The competition is tougher than ever, so I’m under no illusion as to how much work this is going to take. But I’ve been fortunate enough to work with some great people and great teams over the years, and I’ll be bringing all that know-how together to make sure I’m in the strongest possible position when it’s time to go racing.”

Ulster Grand Prix Set for 2027 Return

by

Ulster Grand Prix Set for 2027 Return :

Rumours have been circulating for a couple of days now about a return of the Ulster Grand Prix and it now has been confirmed that the Northern Ireland Government will be budgeting for around £400,00 over a ‘multi-year contract’ and that approximately 50% of that will be set aside for the UGP in order to make improvements around the circuit. However, and notably funding will not be provided for the racing itself.

So the Ulster is by no means back just yet, but this is the biggest step forward in ensuring bikes return to the Dundrod circuit.

The MCUI(UC) has also given a press release :

Motor Cycle Union of Ireland (Ulster Centre) Ltd
Press Release for 2027 “Ulster Grand Prix”
Press Release dated – 03/11/2025 @ 2.30PM

The MotorCycle Union of Ireland (Ulster Centre) Ltd over the last four months have engaged with many government departments, MLA’s, councils and agencies on “pure road racing” in Northern Ireland.

Road Racing between the hedges in Ireland has been attracting competitors and spectators since 1903 when the Governing Body was first established.

We have built a legacy around road racing over this period of time which has produced world class talents. 2026 will see five pure road race events in Northern Ireland, Cookstown 100, NW200, Tandragee 100, Armoy and the Mid Antrim 150 is back on the Calendar. This is a great upturn and promising for road racing since the covid pandemic which had a huge impact on everyone. We appreciate all the support and help from Department of Communities, SportNI and 2&4 Wheel over the years for the funding for much needed safety equipment.

Thinking ahead to 2027 our plan is to bring back probably the purest and most natural road race events in the world.

Subaru Performance-B STI Concept Revealed

by

Subaru Performance-B STI Concept Revealed :

Subaru have revealed their Performance-B STI Concept this week and as a previous Impreza STI owner all I can say is I love it!

Subaru have shown their rally heritage still maters and hopefully this concept becomes a reality in the not too distant future, although I doubt I will able to stretch the wallet anywhere near far enough. I predict Type-R money maybe in and around the £50,000 mark.

From what we can see from the images lifted from various sources across the net there is a modern WRX style interior, but with SI-Drive, and a DCCD selector, along with STI branding and a rally necessity – a flat bottom steering wheel.

A Performace-E STI was also showcased, but it is the Performance-B that absolutely caught my eye and whilst the vocal few having been screaming hate about it, the overwhelming majority consensus seems to be, “Subaru – release this now!!

Halo Coming to PS5 in 2026 :

Image from Official PlayStation Blog

In what can only be described as massive news in the gaming world, Halo is coming to the PlayStation.

Joining the likes of Gears of War and Forza, the PlayStation / Xbox Crossover Catalogue is growing with some proper unmissable classics!

Rebuilt and modernized version of the original Halo campaign includes two-player couch co-op and four-player online crossplay.

The official word is out from Brian “ske7ch” Jarrard, Community Director at Halo Studios: The Master Chief is finally making the jump! 

Halo: Campaign Evolved is launching on PlayStation 5 in 2026.

This isn’t just a simple port, folks. It’s the entire legendary campaign from Halo: Combat Evolved—the one that introduced us to the Chief, Cortana, and the mystery of the Halo ring—fully rebuilt and modernized from the ground up.

They’ve made some serious enhancements that will change how you experience the classic, but without changing the core content.

The Evolution of the Campaign

The campaign has been fully modernized but remains true to the original story, including:

TORRAS for iPhone 17 Pro Max Case with MagSafe : Review

TORRAS for iPhone 17 Pro Max Case with MagSafe : Review :

TORRAS for iPhone 17 Pro Max Case with MagSafe : Review

You will have without doubt noticed TORRAS cases this year, they seem to be sponsoring all of YouTube!

The offering that you will have seen over most of the big Tech Reviewers is their TORRAS OStand Q3 Air model. This is their top of the range case that offers huge drop figure protection numbers as well as an integrated ring that doubles as a holder and stand. You can set the phone in any number of orientations and angles for your viewing pleasure…

However that is not the case I bought.

The OStand Q3 Air is very pricey at £55.99 GBP, I just could not justify the cost on a brand I have not yet tried. At that price point they are directly competing with the likes of Nomad (which has been my case of choice for the last 2 years with my iPhone 15 Pro Max) and Mous, a previous and uncontested favourite of mine, since replaced by a Nomad.

So I opted for one of their mid level cases, the TORRAS for iPhone 17 Pro Max Case with MagSafe which was priced at £23.99 GBP. For similar reasons to my purchase of the ESR Hybrid Magnetic Case, mainly that it was readily available for delivery prior to the launch of the new iPhone and it is absolutely necessary to have a case for your new phone, only sociopaths use their phone without a case! /s

As you would expect with Amazon the case arrived promptly and my initial impressions were indeed very positive. The packing is as you would expect, it’s a box, it ensures the case arrives protected, and the case itself is wrapped in a soft touch branded bag. The pleasant surprise was the pack of buttons which allow you to add a little bit of customisation and personality to the case. It is simply a press out and replace process to add a little colour pop to your case.
