There's so many rounds left?! Kenny especially, as he's only 13pts down. Anything can happen!
Kenny is not far off but he needs to start finishing ahead of Webb consistently.

Never really liked Webb but big respect to the guy. He served his dues and now it's paying off.

I don't know. He was a race down from Dungey two years ago and came back to take the points lead from him with two rounds to go. Of course he blew it and lost the points lead the next race. But you get the point. Can't count him out. Can't count any guy out who can win 9 races in a season.
well coop has already won 5 out of 9.... and hes definitely got more in him.

He's 22 down with 8 races left. Fact is, he has to beat Webb every round from here on out. Webb is showing he can finish 2nd or better so if he wants to have a chance going into Vegas, it's win or crash trying from here on out.

17 showed 3 how to pass 22. That was amazing by 17. At the end 3 will be 3 and 2 will be 1.
For real dude. That was pretty sick by Joey.

It’s so frustrating watching Tomac race this season. He’s struggling so bad and I agree with OP, I don’t see him winning the championship this year. Kenny or Marvin will have it before Eli does.

This is just Tomac. He will be well below his best for no apparent reason numerous times a season. He'll also be the fastest guy by a mile numerous times a season. I don't see him winning a SX title, it's the same thing over and over again. Maybe he'll figure it out at some point, but we're talking multiple years now where he hasn't really shown any signs of doing it

I usually find blaming the bike to be ridiculous but Tomac was losing the rear every time he opened the throttle last night. Something was definitely wrong there.

Possibly, but I am skeptical about him suddenly forgetting how to control the throttle between practice and the heat race.

I'm sceptical about his set up being wrong every other week

Maybe he should only practice starts mainly for a few weeks. That's the main problem.

Seriously, how the hell does that phrase even get a thumbs down. I’m guessing three people don’t have a clue as to what movie it’s from. Educate yourselves people.

Don’t make me start thinking you are Morans.

I too wonder if the 19 bike is not as in agreement for Eli as the 18 was; also remember he did get hurt just before the season started, with little mention of it. Could his back be holding him... back?

It seems they hold their cards close to their chests when they are injured... and this is just not the Eli we've come to know.

Eli Bradshaw. So fun to watch when they're on! So frustraing to watch when they aren't.

I love the injury thing. Top secret injury in the off season. All kinds of rumors about it but no one will confirm. Eli struggles begging of season. Finally gets a win and then comes out and says he injured his back, confirming the rumors, and that he's back to 100%. All fans are like, awesome Eli is back! Now he's back to his inconsistent ways and it's back to the injury excuse...

There's nothing wrong with Eli other than his starts. He's still the fastest guy. It's easy to see. He came from outside the top 10 to fifth last night. It was a fine ride, but not going to cut it when your competition starts in the top 3 every week.

How frustrated HRC is with Roczen ? How much money for 0 titles ? ET3 has two outdoors titles for a better price...

Tomac will join Bradshaw as the fastest 2 guys to never win a big boy SX title. The ship sailed last year.
