That sand section in Tampa that year with the rollers was probably the coolest one yet. Looks like a similar one this season. Awesome

Josh; as always excellent content and very interesting view points. MXA has had my attention ever since issue 1 volume 1. Please keep it up.

Eli showed the youngster how it's done. By the time the main came along the track had changed. Eli was able to keep the same speed on a chewed up track chase could not it's all about the main !!! Eli is the man !!!!

[drgruber]

What?! Whittier Christian High has a motocross team?! Here in my own home town! Oh to be 48 years younger!

I think it's cool to have the sand at Tampa

[aaronmachado]

Eli looked to ride the most strategic I’ve ever seen in Houston as he looked to study Chase in the heat like Carmichael and Stew talked about it’s better to chase ( no pun intended) as you can study especially in the heat race where it’s real time data. Chase on the other hand rode smart as last year Chase would’ve went outside and crashed trying to catch Eli whereas Houston was point racing midway through the main. As far as Tampa I was at the 2020 race and that sand caught ALOT of riders off guard and I’ll never forget sitting standing by the pirate ship and seeing Vince stuck in his bike in the sand

Tom V is also a great young man, its good to the excitement and respectful personality .glad he jumped the pond.

[johnluck]

Josh...great commentary on Tampa, great up the good work.

[christophersmith]

I think Eli totally play chase.. eli didn't want to show chase anything iand let him by in the heat.. ans eli could see sexton lines.. look for more of that this season.. eli is a wise old racer dont under estimate is race craft.

Thanks for the preview, we'll be at the race Saturday night. Let go ET3.

[OGLD]

Sexton smoked everyone all day long and then ET3 just beats him straight up. The dude is unreal

[drewhayes]

No one talked about Sexton changing up his line in the main event on the rhythm section after the over/under. In the heat race he was rolling the single, jumping the back side of the table then triple, double (as others were) then he started rolling the single, jumping to the top of the table, single out, triple, single and it was visibly slower.

Chase did the right move in the heat race. You never hold back while racing!!

[travisfletcher]

I’m on board with these MXA videos. Josh is great. I’m a big fan of both Mosiman Brothers. Keep it up.

The white sand should deliver some cool photo-shots

[leesamuelson]

On James Stewarts Pod Cast he said Eli did not pick up the pace to match Chase. The lap times prove it. Eli never got close to what Chase pulled in the heats. He said Eli just hole shot the main and that got into Chases head for some reason. Chase made a couple mistakes where Eli was dialed.

[danoa]

Josh didn’t mention anything about his younger brother Michael. Unexpected performance ?

[ddrowdy]

Tomac didn't need to push it in the heat, why take chances? When Sexton passed him, he just let him go. if Sexton wants to push it in the heat for no reason and chance getting hurt? Tomac was right to just let him hang it out all he wants. What happens in the main is what matters.

[kylearmstrong]

The thing is Chase had the speed to cover Tomac when the track was smooth. But Tomac had him covered when it got rough. Seems like Chase was just a little hesitant Road safe to finish second
