Yes. It lit that fire and gave confidence that the dominant Euros could be beat.
This definitely belongs in the conversation IMO. I really wish I could find those full motos online
Hannah was within eyeshot of the second place rider (Howerton) on the final lap after lapping the entire field before his skiing accident. Next level.
First moto at Pala² 2022.
Both needed to win. These guys were 77-seconds ahead of third place. Unbelievable !!! Tomac passed for the lead towards the end. BEAST

Exactly. Crazy things happen in a mudder. Wrecking the field in dry, perfect conditions is way more impressive. Tomac beat Ryan Dungey by over a minute. 8x MX/SX champion in his peak 25yr old Ryan Dungey. Ryan Dungey who actually won the title that year!
Dunge never got wrecked like that. He kept RV honest outdoors and beat him straight up plenty of times. RV wouldn't blow his doors off by 30 sec. He had 10-15sec gaps on Dunge. Tomac buried him by a minute plus
Damon Huffman 97 Troy,Ohio hottest race ever. He beat RC by 2 1/2 minutes .
The most dominant ride I ever personally witnessed was Herlings Lierop 2012. Never seen anything like that before. In his dominant MX2 years (2012-2016), you could guarantee him putting over at least a minute on the second guy at sand GP's.
If you think about dominant rides.. Obviously Tomac 2015, Stewart Toronto 2014, Roczen Millville 2016, Carmichael Millville 2006 all come to mind
Its obviously impressive RC lapped the field but something nobody talks about from this race every time its brought up is like everybody was down at one point and couldnt get their bikes unstuck. Stew fell on one of the up hills and his bike was literally stuck for like 5 straight minutes. Again, impressive but he started out front and just didn't crash in the swampy mess the track was.
Not really comparable to Eli straight up smacking the field by 90 seconds on a prime track IMO.
Crashing is apart of racing. As I said no one mentioning it is weird. I personally think Tomacs is in debate for #1 ride. RV 07 MXDN should be in there too.
2015 was bonkers. As he said, the ruts were bad that year, and there he was jumping into them.
Pinned, front wheel never down . . .
listening to tomac talk about the start to that season he felt invincible.. unfortunately it bit him at Lakewood (where he was going 4 seconds a lap faster). His ride as glen Helen that year was really good too.
How about how much better the actual race coverage was back then!! From the camera crew to GL and Weegy commentating!!
It was crazy how fast he was going. I believe Stewart did somethin similar in the opening rounds of the 2012 Nats, though not 5-6 seconds a lap faster.
If my aunt had balls..........
That dosent ring true nowdays with all these wierdo types.
it popped up in my youtube feed and i watched it last nite and thought same thing. it was masterclass of outdoor dominance IMO. he yarded the field.
I was there at Lakewood when the crowd went silent. The other time the crowd was instantly and completely deflated was when he tore his achilles at the Denver Supercross. Both were pretty devastating to watch.
Pit Row
we can’t forget SLC either , Eli & dunge both coming in as dual pts leaders , Eli gets buried mid pack off the start & the rest was just absolute cinema for the rest of tht night
Pretty sure Tomac went down in 2015 in the same Lakewood rut section that Stew crashed in in 2012.
I was there. It was unbelievable. BUT, BUT the weather was the biggest factor that day. NOT that Ricky was god-like. He got the holeshot and ran away, everyone else crashed multiple times...end of story.

Re-raceables out now covering this race, with Eli joining the show to discuss! Some good off topic stories in there too, one involving a clapped out 2 stroke.
RV on the 250 wrecking the GP 250 and 450 guys and the USA 450 guys (you know who) at Budds is my top ride…
IMO fastest anyone has ever gone on a motocross track.
It was amazing no doubt. But I will nominate Stew and RC multiple times in 2006 and 2007. Red Bud 2007 was just ridiculous.
Hannah at Binghamton in 83 was pretty amazing as well. He gapped the little professor by a lot that day
