Eli does his own dishes:


He's faster than a train:

The way he rode at Hangtown, he would easily have made top 5 at a GP.

What he meant to say is Eli would have lapped 5th place at a GP .Would of had about 2mins over 2nd place.

Tomac was awesome. The only person who was even close that day was Dungey who I believe backed it off in that 2nd moto knowing he couldn't match Eli.

The rest of the field is not in the same class. At Vegas SX, 3rd place was 40 seconds behind Dungey in a 20 lap race. It is not a surprise to see 3rd place being gapped by a minute plus in a 30 minute + 2 lap motocross race.

That landing is sketchy, looks like Reed is going to clip it.

you must be one of the guys that predicted rv would be winning every race by 30+ seconds in gps


good ride by eli at the weekend- he wouldn't win in mxgp this year though. Nagl is the FMOTP this year

you could argue the case that herlings is...


hopefully some of the top American riders will grow a pair and race the usgp this year, they will have a big advantage on their home turf, it will be interesting to see if they do...
