Well he definitely ain't going 24-0 again, so there's that.
This got me thinking. When was the last time two guys faced off in MX who were both the champions last time they raced an MX race. For instance, the last time Tomac rode MX was 22, where he was crowned champion. The last time Jett rode MX was 23, where he was crowned champion. If I am not mistaken, it was 2013 when Dungey and Villopoto were both “defending” champions. It has to be a rare occasion for sure.
As part of Tomac's summer National prep, Star Racing has been streaming a replay of 2015 Hangtown, 24/7 on Eli's phone.
dunge & kenny back in 16 for tht short period 🤔 had to be either 15 or 16 if I can remember correctly cause Eli 3 peats started in 17

I think race day Eli will be close to the Eli of old... Which will be good, but likely not good enough. As someone who has personally witnessed a "beast mode" Eli Tomac, that is enough to win these races. But we all know beast mode every weekend isn't really doable... And Sexton will like the bike better outdoors and that's also a good thing. It's Jett's to lose, but the competition will undoubtedly be better.
Eli usually takes a while to get rolling...in a race and in a season...he won't be killing it during the first few rounds...but he will get there. I still think he is not in beastmode shape yet.
Nah Kenny raced in 2015 so 2016 wouldn’t apply.
REJOICE
my only concern is he spent all last outdoors off the bike and barely had time to prep for SX. Hopefully the speed comes back very very quickly
That really was the best Hangtown track I think, between the larger rollers going up the hill and the half pipe feature right before the finish it was unique and was a lot of fun to ride on amateur day.
I have my flame retard shot on but....
I am glad to see Eli racing outdoors. He will probably win a race or three.
But barring injury, he won't beat Jett for the title.
Yeah not even close, the booter, off chambers etc. definitely best version of Hangtown. Last 4 years have been disappointing
Jett never did go 24-0 as the Nationals got devalued because of this stupid SMX.
Bring back the lost National, preferably to Glen Helen!
Fuck Ya!,
Getting my Tixs to Lakewood now.
Give Jett and Sexton a run.
Is Webb and Anderson in?
Odd how he worded that specifically mentioning he would be at the first round...and the final 3 rounds. Is he skipping the rest?
Good times!! Lets hope KK gets better in time
Can't believe he's ready to lose 22 times at his age
This is the best news of the year. I hope Eli leaves it all out on the track this summer!
Pit Row
Watched 2015 Glen Helen yesterday, there were still times I had to exclaim "goddamn!" watching Eli ride so aggressive. Hope we get more of those moments.
I thought the same thing.
The text below says full series…
which to believe?
Thank lard!
I hate that we lost a national. Outdoors was already shorter than sx so it stinks that we only have 11 rounds now.
Me too, but if they dropped a round at Pala wouldn't that qualify as addition by subtraction?
Yeah but he’s still taking the title barring injury, so there’s that
Go post in one of the hundreds of Jett threads!! Let us Eli fans have our moment in the sun 😂😂
I’m too hip , give us the 12th rd back & bring back the freestone national 😤
I really don’t get it either, I hope we are wrong… tho
Pretty sure Webb will miss outdoors and come back for SMX. Star needs two riders. Now they have them.
Tomac said in the interview with Will that he just loves racing and is not ready to quit. And that he plans to race in 2025. Of course, injury can rapidly change that decision.
Hoping he didn't injure the wrist much...not good for racing MX...or getting ready for it.
Coker mentioned his thumb aswell. Said nothing is torn or broken, so Eli should be in for slc
