I'm super stoked right now! So happy for Eli, he keeps gaining. Thanks Marv for those extra 2 points. So glad I was able to see this in person.

It's just incredible that Tomac just went that many laps, winning the race, and had practically NO sweat! His hair wasn't even wet. I've never finished...

Living and training at altitude has to help. Maybe all those MX pro training facilities in Florida should be in Colorado or Utah?

Schmidt and Enticknap lapped four times each. Three laps down for Chiz.
Schmidt is always lobbying for fill in rides. Maybe he'd have a shot if he'd just get in shape.

Yep. Maybe they need another magnet.

Lapping up to ninth!? This must make it a bit hard for spectators to follow

To be able to get in shape is kinda hard in the middle of the season because they travel a lot. Being a privateers makes training during the week much harder than it is for the riders on big teams.

A privateer trains as much as he can with limited funds and parts during pre season and is happy to hit the track once a week during the season.

In order to compete at this level it's very important to have a team backing you up so they just have to worry about riding and racing. I'm sure that schmidt can be a lot better than he is right now but he needs to start that in the pre season

Anderson a lap down on both his training companions who finished 2nd and 3th, i can imagine him being a little pissed at himself right about now.

I'm aware of that but he's got it pretty good as a privateer. He flys to the races and spends the week in California.
