Eli Tomac.....the new James "Bubba" Stewart. This was a flawless race!!! Fast as JS7...

Tomac is a beast . Am not eli fan but his unbelievable!!! Love the pace of eli

Wish we could see Carmichael vs Tomac both in their prime. They look so much alike. Full throttle all the time and then just coax the bike to not crash. Tomac's sand tire can work because he is going so fast and always accelerating. Guarantee Tomac's 450 gets scrapped after every national the way he wrings it out on the rev limiter.

I think your just tougher at 30 than at 23… your just stronger in the mind and you have the experience to push your body beyond and out of your comfort zone… Eli showed that at Spring Creek, the confidence and speed he rode with in that second moto was like I’m the king of the jungle today… I mean he attacked attacked attacked from gate drop till checkers 👊🇦🇺✊

I was there. Most intense race I’ve ever seen.

I still say Ricky and James was the most intense racing I’ve ever seen outdoors. This is a close second

Awesome place. Thank the Martin family for their love of our sport.

Stewart and Carmichael were literally ready to die, especially Stew trying to win. I don't see that here. These guys are ridiculous, but Chase wasn't willing to die trying to win

This is the first time in a while that I've seen two guys run an insane pace for the entire moto. Seems like Eli usually takes all the big risks in the beginning when he's passing every one and then once he checks out he dials it back a bit and just rides it out. But this was CRAZY. Major props for CS23. He's really laying it out there. Great for the fans.

Unreal pace.from those two. Riveting to watch. Love outdoors

I hadn’t had a feeling like that watching a race in a long time Great battle and a race I will remember

Bob Hannah rode this way. Dallas, GA, 1977, 500 nationals, fell in first corner, broke clutch, chased down Marty Smith, bouncin' off trees, movin' fence, like nothing I've seen.

Absolutely incredible!! Awesome content bud

I think Tomac was at about 90% and chase was 100%+ on that one. Didn’t see those Tomac beast mode moves so I highly doubt that’s all he had

What a rider Eli is to realize it his foot was going to drag and moved it out of the way and held body positioning to not crash.

The 450 is so much better on these motocross tracks these guys are really using the bikes full power. Way to go across the board from the manufacturers to the mechanics, track mgmt, and rides. Just awesome. I wish I lived in a state with a track.

Tomac is so exciting to watch. He reminds me of a more in control version of James Stewart.

Sexton held his own well and learned line choices aswell as where tomac will pace or be collected in places. I think the biggest learning curve sexton has is how to steer with the rear, amazing seeing tomac wide open muscling the bike with the front up in turns whether theres a berm there or not and doesnt make a difference how rough it is. Sexton and tomac should both be on the des nations team, not sure who be a hood choice on 250.
