No one needs help until Tomac can learn how to limit his bad races in SX. He is the fastest but by far not the smartest when it comes to managing a SX title.
Once Tomac starts limiting his bad races, they won’t be asking for help, they’ll be begging for mercy!

I heard from a reliable source that he's out for the season and retiring. Just retiring for the Christmas season to share time with family.

My source says they're giving Tomac's ride to JS7 and pulling Damon Bradshaw out to manage the Kawi team.

Could really shake things up.

Can't wait for A1!

Just checked his Instagram page and it’s telling. He stoped posting riding videos on November 9. It’s going to be an interesting season.

I heard that Tomac had a crash a couple of weeks ago had to miss a couple of filming deals but is ok. This is the same source that told me about when Tomac was hurt before SX the first year of his Kawasaki contract.

I am not so sure Tomac can hang with Anderson through the whole series if he is healthy. Now if he comes in dinged or misses some due to an injury well then it comes down to Anderson and Roczen as the favored ones. But I know that anything can happen, and lots of times things do, which is what makes it that much more exciting. With that said I hope they all come to A1 healthy.

It's obvious ET is MIA because he's in Europe somewhere trainging like a real man with his new buddies.

It’s actually Russia and his new trainer Khabib has him wrestling bears or some shit. I dunno all the details, though.

Haha really? Has Anderson ever passed Tomac straight up? I don’t think so.

Reliable folks have confirmed the issue. He’s been trying to post ride pics/videos but his speed is so fast cameras have been unable to capture the images. Word is doctors are working with him now to help slow him down enough to keep the magazines and haters happy. Stay tuned.

I feel like it could be true.
Fact 1. Tomac hasn't posted any riding clips or photos since beginning Nov.
Fact 2. Joey Savatgy does the Bronco's football gig, and it's Tomac's home state. Weird.
Fact 3. No sign of another bike at Kawi track in video that Joey posted 5 days ago.
Fact 4. These facts could also mean nothing. Carry on. I'm just nervous.
Dude... you bring up some solid points. The whole Savatgy thing was weird. Weird enough to make it true. Where’s my tin foil hat?

Not many people have passed Tomac (on 450s) straight up. I’d be willing to bet we could count on one hand the number of people who have.

Only person I can think of is Blake Baggett outdoors 2017. Don’t know anyone else in recent history who straight up passed Eli in sx or Mx and held the position.

The only thing that makes me wonder is that Ping mentioned that Eli didn't show up at the Kawi poster shoot. Everything else is typical Eli. He has even said on Pulp that he doesnt put videos of himself up because it gives everyone an advantage.

Did he though...? Eli started off in a 50 point hole (his fault kinda yes) after the first two rounds with the crash/pant issue and then missing the next race with the shoulder. Not exactly “Straight up.” He dominated round 3 and continued through the season to be the clear best guy. His championship was lost literally lap 4 of A1. You can’t give any of these guys a 50 point head start and expect to win the championship no matter how many races you won.

RC dnf'd A1 in '02 and won the championship by 35 points. That's a 59 point swing in one season but I guess that's a bit off topic.

I think in the 1st moto he wanted to try to make a race of it after being passed but thought better of it after crashing. It was a straight up pass.
