For me it's not the winning team. What gets me excited the most is seeing who the fastest guy in each class is.
For whatever reason USA's most elite riders ride nationally all year, so MXON is the only chance we get the see a true world mx race.
Watching RC chase down Everts was truly such a buzz! Watching Everts ride around Bubba on the pegs was also amazing. That is where the magic lies for me.
Only at this race do we get the chance to see the clash of the titans.
I think it's a real shame this magic is lost on Eli. Their surely cannot be a better achievement in MX then dominating your class at MXON. IMO Eli not going is not only doing a diss service to himself, his country but also the competition in his class.

That is why it is for me by far my favorite event of every year. Nothing comes close to it.

It's something I plan around now, like A1.
Even if you're not there in person and can only log onto Vital for the first untelevised practice thread where lap times mean nothing etc - there's a tenseness in the air right from the off. Idk, it's just a magical race. We've really been spoilt the last few years especially with how close it's been right down to the wire, sometimes literally the last couple of laps.
The event just feels special, more special than any other. I just love it, I go every year. This year will be my 8th in a row and I plan to keep that run going for a long time
