I’ve gotten my hopes up once before only for them to be crushed. I am not willing to let my guard down again!

Sweetness! If Herlings decides to maybe a few others will cross the pond. Who is switching from 250 to 450 going into the nationals this year? Jeremy Martin? Mcelrath?

It’s a good idea for him. Our guys won’t be as ready to go outdoors and he could put it to them. Will be interesting

I was gonna say that I didn’t remember him ever saying he would do AMA Nats and backing out but then remember him teasing on twitter last year.

Maybe KTM will be more receptive to it this year??

Lets hope... would really turn the shit show 2020 has been around!!

The SLC races will get a lot of attention and Herlings would be a boon to keeping those new fans interested into the summer. Play up the showdown between Tomac, Roczen and Herlings.

I hope so, I don't believe that Tomac and Herlings have had a proper head to head race yet. Everyone wanks on about Ironman but fail to remember that that Eli caught Herlings and tucked the front end making the pass. He then got up and went into safe mode because he still needed to get the job done to win the championship. I think a beast mode Eli has never met a beast mode Herlings, and being fans of both riders, that's what I want to see.

Well he will certainly be able to race more aggressive knowing a bad race wont derail his championship hopes. An injury though would mess up his mxgp season so who knows.

...none of this matters, there are not going to be any motocross nationals this year unless there is a some sort of a miracle.

If MLB or NBA can't have crowds, what are the chances that people will be allowed to gather along the fence at a national track before next year?

all those promoters make their money at the gate, so a TV only audience is not practical.

He put it to them the last time and they had already been racing all summer.

Millville is having local races next weekend. The current schedule has the pro race over 2 months away so I’m starting to think it might actually happen.

Herlings wins hands down.

It would great to see the matchup between Eli and herlings over a few rounds, but no way Eli will be even close to being ready for it, especially since the proposed format is just one week off after 7 rounds of SX in 3 weeks and chasing his first title.
