Two rounds and two very impressive wins from Eli Tomac.
Is Eli winning a “thing”? No, of course not. Is Eli winning this early a big deal? Yes, yes it is. Eli never starts a season this well. Hell, prior to his win at Anaheim 1, he’d never (NEVER), won an opener in Monster Energy AMA Supercross.
As I predicted prior to the start of the season, I really think Eli passes James Stewart for second on the all-time wins list this season. He entered the season with 44 wins, tied with Chad Reed, and with his two wins this season, he’s already at 46. He needs three more to pass The GOAT, and is now only four away from tying Stew.
THIS IS CRAZY!
Do you think Tomac passes Stew this year?

If he remains healthy I don’t know how he doesn’t win at least 5 more races this year. Webb is coming, but 5 more this year is absolutely within his grasp
