It's obvious that Dungey slowed down because he had a big gap over Barcia but ET kept laying the wood. Trying to stomp it or what?

He does only have one speed -- faster than everybody else.

Ever slow down and start making mistakes? I have, your rhythm just gets thrown off.

Plus hes got something to prove.

Does he look out of control to any of you? He doesn't to me.

Very well could be, yup.

I just hope he can pull it off. Amazing to see someone riding a 450 like a 125... Lol

Oh man , Eli is super fast for sure , but what's really incredible to watch is his line choice and the way he does certain sections. He experiments on the track during the entire moto. Switching up lines , doing jumps differently and he really pushes the envelope on some of that stuff. Really fun to watch and a little borderline scary at times. Smile

I think he is still getting rid of a lot of the frustration he had to endure during the SX season. ET tends to over-ride the track. For SX it bites him and costs him good results. Outdoors he can get away with riding that hard. If he can consistently get decent starts, the other riders are in trouble.

Right now it looks like only Eli can beat Eli.

Whatever he is doing is working really well.

All of the top Honda guys showed good speed this year in SX.

If he keeps it up and takes the title it will be a shame if Honda doesn't have him back next year running that big number one on a red bike. It's been a long tough road for them in the big boy class lately and it seems they have stepped it up to get their bikes back on track.

I'm kind of a Kawi fan in a way , but dang I'd be bummed if he stepped off that Honda and then didn't gel with his new bike. I guess the Kawi deal is signed , sealed and delivered. Which again , I'm pumped for that , but just want him to feel good on whatever he decides to ride.

Two races into this thing. . . But I'm already saving my sheckles to pay my bet off. Lol.

I have faith in Dungey but as of right now, this isn't looking too good.
