Tomac sounds like he's not just coming back because he was robbed. He's coming back to make a statement. And sounds like his motivation goes beyond a 1 year deal..

I have become a huge Tomac fan since his injury for some reason. I can’t wait to see if he can challenge and beat Jett on a Supercross track.
 

It’s hard to not respect the Tomac’s quiet private lifestyle. The Deegan / Tomac family friendship in this video seemed a little forced and fake.

Cool to see them together.           Big fan of Haidens riding/talent, but man when he opens his mouth to speak....cringe.  I guess that's the generational thing.   ...but Brian is worse sometimes.     Kid is gonna kill the 24 season. 

Eli...what can you say, the fire is there.    I'd love to see him get that third title.

Funny as in it’s a given that Eli can run with Jett? Or funny because you feel that he don’t have a chance to run with Jett?

I want to see if Jett can challenge Eli. Not the other way around. Eli is the benchmark people. Don't get it twisted.

Eli seemed a lot more open and upbeat in that video. Like to see that side of him

I think as you enter to last part of your career it’s easier to loosen up and concentrate on your personal goals. I’m sure ET3 knows what he wants to do this season and it should be quite fun to watch. Can’t wait for A1!

I think y'all have too high of expectations for these kids.

They've spent their life racing dirt bikes and not much else. Most moto parents remove any inconveniences from their kids' lives so what perspective do they really have on life in general? Maybe after 10-15 years as a pro, a couple kids, maybe a divorce, maybe somebody mismanaged their finances...now we have some life experience and perspective. 

I say sit back and enjoy the show for what it is. The kid puts it all out their every time he swings the leg over the bike, pretty damn fun to watch.

Not that old.... Wink       Just not a fan of "sick, bro" speak from any generation. 

Love to watch the kid ride though.

MAC N DEEGS... is this a play on Mac-n-Cheese, or is this some siick language I don't even understand?

I have to say, Deegan is the last person I'd expect to see Tomac hanging out with. I have to imagine there are Monster and Star incentives at play here.

I have to agree....        Mr "keep me out of the limelight" Tomac and "can't get enough clicks, likes, thumbsup" Deegan.

The odd couple for sure.

As much as we’d like to think this is true, it just isn’t..Eli coming back from injury and Jett dominating like he has, makes Jett the top guy/benchmark.

Hopefully Eli can challenge Jett..

Eli has a good chance to be third next year.

Deegan could win it.

If you think that Tomac takes any type of pressure from any of his sponsors to do what “they want him to do” you’re crazy. Haha. This is mutually beneficial for both parties. If it wasn’t we would not hear from Tomac until A1 practice

It’s just funny overall … you’re response is funny, you’re desire to dream that jett’s success was not in a non depleted field is funny, the thought that eli has any thought that he can’t “challenge” jett is funny. I can’t wait for A1 when everyone is on the line… it’s going to be awesome!!!

"Deegan has been the best 250 guy we had out here ever".

Nice to see Tomac so happy and relaxed, I bet that break felt really good, no real break since 2015 for him. He's gonna be ready.

Say hello to Eli’s Rabbit until Anaheim. Send the “Send it” kid to push Eli and make sure his intensity and speed come back quickly. Deegen gets a first hand view of what made Eli so good and what it takes to stay at the top. Hell of a deal for #38

I was told from a buddy who would know, that Deegs was only there for a week,  planned for the video shoot. But hopefully he liked it out there and decided to go train with him.

Win/win.  Eli can feed off youthful energy and have a rabbit to chase and Deegan can learn from an absolute stud.  One near the end of his career and one at the start.  

 

I have to say the winners circle has been painted red recently but blue has the best chance to mix up the colours.  We get to watch.

 

Well, orange and yellow have some say.  Green maybe, white who knows...

I find myself wondering how long the Degans will be training with ET3. I like the Stealth off-season Tomac where nobody has a clue what he's been doing and kind of hope he spends all December in secrecy

Not the pair you'd expect, but at the same time they have a lot in common (famous dads, same team/sponsors, similar riding style, fast!).

You think the break caused by his torn Achilles tendon felt really good? Not sure I agree with that

Well, obviously that injury and losing a championship like that is rough. No doubt the first weeks or even months after that were tough mentally. But having his first summer off in 8 years and being able to spend more time with his family probably wasn't a bad thing. He will be fresh and recovered I think.
