Yes! he was railing the outside in the 2014 MXdN (Lativa) in the final moto as if he was in a video game (hitting a turbo button) as he blew by Dead Wilson and all others. He stalled it otherwise he would have made it to Paulin. That was insane (even Paul Malin was making these strange "ooh & ah" sounds in amazement along with giddy laughter as Tomac railed the outside in turbo mode).

Bummer was that in his 1st moto though he failed to get around or barely passed Noren! Then for the final moto he had the worst start or a small tip over and ended up near the top riding completely different than he did in the 1st moto.

MxDN 2014 Lativa final moto, this week's Daytona last to 2nd & also ET3's incredible charge in Salt Lake from near the back to win was insane as well. It's up there with JH & Ironman (2nd moto) & JS7 2014 Toronto charge from the back to win. All of these are so great to watch. Thank goodness for each of these races!

Stew used to do it on the 125. Hed get smoked first turn then pass everyone n win. Hed pass 3 people in 1 corner. I do think like that dude said one was a heat race so even less laps. Stew on a 125 was somethin else. Eli was and is def in beast mode lately.
