OP is a dumbass. That much is sure. I don't care how much Tomac won by. I'm not a Dungey fan but can respect greatness. Dungey is The Man for a reason. Lots of racing left. OP acts like Dungey was going to get 7th. Lol.

Do you think Tomac will beable to sustain that for the rest of the season? We will hear in a few weeks how is bike isnt doing good and him being mad at Kawasaki. Same song and Dance. Dungey is doing what he does every year as Tomac.
Yes it's possible

Tomac will pretty much have to win every race with the points gap. This is considering Dungey stays on the podium.

if Dungey see s that quad earlier in the race. he starts doing it and wins the race . Tomac did nt do it in the main till he saw Webb do it .Why would Dungey risk everything on a jump and one race when he will still have a 17 points lead. Tomac racing like he has nothing to lose . He ll need to do that for the rest of the round s , and keep it on two wheel s as well .

Dungey spanked the field by 23 seconds. Tomac was in another gear

Alright, Ill be the first to post it. Something is wrong with #5. He is either hurt or he is mind fucked after Kenny's crash. Looking back at last week, I was wondering if Tomac and Reed really made that much of an improvement, or if Dungey simply struggled. Now after watching practice and his heat (getting passed by BB4), I think it was more of a regression by Dungey than anything. Hope he fixes whatever is wrong.

Dungey is a loose cannon! Stew would have won if Wilson hadn't parked him!

yeah, it's not like these guys have been racing all of their lives and crashed, and witnessed crashes before. I am sure seeing KR crash has psychologically damaged many of them...

if Dungey see s that quad earlier in the race. he starts doing it and wins the race . Tomac did nt do it in the main till he saw Webb do it .Why would Dungey risk everything on a jump and one race when he will still have a 17 points lead. Tomac racing like he has nothing to lose . He ll need to do that for the rest of the round s , and keep it on two wheel s as well .
Tomac tried it in his Semi, he cased the final jump and nearly went over the berm, but you are right from what I seen he did not hit it again until Webb done it in front of him.

To me it looks like Dungey is just not going to push it on a track that is gnarly and take the risk of going down and dropping a big chunck of points.

He will do what Dungey does, pick off the wins on the nights he feels 100% and take 2nds and 3rds on the nights when things are not perfect.

He will start top three every race, Tomac will start anywhere from top 3 - 15th at any given round. The rounds Tomac starts up front, it now looks like he will be hard to stop, but he won't run down Dungey every race like he did tonight, well I don't think he will, guess we won't know for sure for another 12 rounds.

I will wait to make my decision about this for another 4 rounds. I'm guessing Dungey will be on the box, and who knows what could happen to Tomac.

This isn't Dungeys first rodeo. He's never been the fastest rider in the field all season. He knows you can only push on a track that ate up so many times before it bites you in the boo boo. Tomac was on rails, but Dungey won't push on some shitty track like that unless he falls behind in points.

That is completely wrong. First place takes 3 points over second. If Tomac wins the next 6 and Dungey gets second, Tomac will take the red plate. There are 12 races to go... I know it's unlikely Eli will win that many straight but there is plenty of time left as long as Eli doesn't throw it away.

I'm a BIG Tomac fan but Dungey has the fastest "comfort zone" speed around, that's why he's nearly impossible to beat for a championship.

Dungey has been emotional since the KR94 wreck. He lashes out at the media, seems depressed when talking about Ken, and brings up the sketchy track and the fact everyone made it safely throughout the night first chance he gets on the podium.... it is 100% on his mind.

Dungey has been known to not take risks... but the last two weeks he has gone ultra conservative on rhythm lanes. He has been passed by Reed etc. at Phoenix because of the triple quad that 5-6 guys were doing, and he couldn't hit that 3-3-3 after the start and multiple times doubled through it.

Same thing as tonight. 2 guys were hitting that rhythm, and Dungey wouldnt.

Maybe it'll change, but I see him being much more conservative that years past.

I'm not sure calling the OP a dumbass for simply stating his opinion is really necessary. It was a legit observation he any many others have had over the past week or so.

Dungey has put so many people in the hospital he should be sponsored by Premera Blue Cross. Eli has looked great the last two weeks but Dungey has enough of a cushion that Eli will have to press hard to close the gap making him another casualty of the diesel. Dungey hasn't even started riding fast yet

this right here. Tomac simply hit Beast Mode: sometimes he does, sometimes he doesn't. I don't think he will Beast Mode every event from here on out. Props to them both, great racing
