E
ver since Estenson Racing
Yamaha's JD Beach broke
through to claim his first
Mission SuperTwins TT victory,
at Wild Horse Pass Motorsports
Park back in 2019, he's estab-
lished himself the odds-on fa-
vorite to win any TT the calendar
puts in his path.
A world-class dirt tracker and
road racer—not to mention an
all-around gifted motorcyclist,
Beach has the edge when tracks
turn right or allow for overtakes
on the brakes. His record since
scoring that first triumph is quite
convincing—now standing at sev
-
en wins in eight attempts over
the last five seasons, with the
last five coming in succession
since finishing third to the broth
-
ers Bauman at Peoria in '19.
That said, as inevitable as they
may have seemed in hindsight,
