"I really wonder what the dynamic is like" Jason Anderson questions Eli Tomacs program - Gypsy Tales

[@boxbanger]

I think we need a full interview with Tomac now

[@channel1_channel]

haha...good luck

[@SoleAddictions]

Yeah that isn’t gonna happen , lol. Would be nice for sure , but you’ll be hard pressed to see a interview with tomac

[@racingfuel28]

Did you not listen to what they were saying? Eli doesn’t do interviews, period. It’d be great to get one, but he doesn’t talk to the press hardly any. That’s one reason everyone likes him, he’s just private enough that it’s kind of cool. You can tell he’s a super nice guy, but he just doesn’t talk much. If we ever get an interview with him it’ll be about 10 years after he’s retired, and we’ll be lucky to get that.

[@AQbumpin]

Actually Eli did a Whiskey Throttle show awhile back

[@Degenerate124]

@@AQbumpin he’s been on pulp before as well but he doesn’t say much what so ever lol he’s just there because someone asked him to do it and that’s it 😂

[@noonespecial1217]

Props to Jason for giving it up to Eli like that. Love hearing what top riders think of other top riders while they’re in the mix with each other. Beats hearing it after they retire, or from living room couch junkies swearing their guy is unstoppable.

I gained a lot of respect for Jason when we were at the monstercup in Vegas one year and he was the only pro (that I saw) that came out and watched the 50 mini racer and then stayed for their award ceremony. Jason is a stud!

[@jburnham54]

I love Anderson… hes just genuine.

[@carlstanton2550]

I think this change has been great for Anderson,and was much needed.he had been with rockstar for a long,long time.a change of scenery can really breath life back into someone's mental game, and it's showed this season with multiple riders.Anderson, Tomac and even Mookie,all switched teams etc, and and all are looking better than ever!

[@Isenseven1080]

It's be really interesting if you setup a podcast with a few of these top riders dads/parents. I'd love to hear the parents side of the very beginning to present.

[@channel1_channel]

GREAT POINT. Great idea.

[@Mjb317]

Kinda did that with Brian Deegan and it was a good podcast!

[@pike3685]

This is an untapped perspective that is possibly more interesting than the riders themselves. The rider has to put in a massive amount of work but the parents are as much a part of the winning or losing equation.

[@channel1_channel]

@@pike3685 'Big James' Stewart is the only parent I've heard at length in an interview.

Props to Anderson for his honesty about Tomac. You guys both can rip a dirt bike properly and it’s an absolute pleasure watching it happen. I just hope Jason can stay away from Mookie and Barcia for the rest of the season.

[@xThePsychoNautx]

Jase, I just wanna say I love the podcast and I appreciate all the love you show the MX/SX community. You seriously get the most genuine conversations from everyone you interview. Thanks for all the content. Keep up the amazing work.

[@channel1_channel]

Yes, credit is due to Jase. These interviews provide a deeper dynamic to the sport we all love.

[@BrettDavis514]

We need Tomac on here asap! If anyone can make it happen..

[@catsmasher83]

I wasn't that pumped for Seattle, well now I am. I feel like even if JA and Eli were best friends no one would know. Like I see them racing together at a home track when they're 45 and still laying down laps and never really saying much to each other.

[@Iwasthewalrus]

Best friends communicate on a non verbal level

[@recordfishhunter9234]

Jason is a cool dude he's had some tough luck this year otherwise this championship would be a lot closer.

[@racingfuel28]

It’d be a lot closer if the AMA would stop penalizing guys for banging bars. They need to just stop penalizing for aggressive riding, because that’s too tight of a line. We penalize Anderson for him and Roczen coming together when it was literally just a case of two lines coming together. Then exactly a week later Friese completely sent Craig flying dang near out of the freaking stadium, and the AMA does nothing, when they absolutely should have. If you’re gonna penalize for aggressive riding, then that should definitely have been immediate disqualification from the series, because Friese does that crap all the time, and could have seriously hurt Craig, but the AMA just says whatever to that. Then in Indy last week you’re going to penalize Barcia for pretty much just block passing Anderson. He just went up the inside, and took his line away. Should’ve been perfectly fine, but he gets penalized for it because they only penalize guys who are big name guys apparently. They need to just stop penalizing completely for aggressive racing, because at the end of the day, rubbin is racin. Let it police itself.

[@recordfishhunter9234]

@@racingfuel28 thanks for the input I totally agree ! I think they penalized Barcia on that Anderson incident because he was already on probation. Otherwise I don't think they would have done anything. Have a great week !✌️

[@dealspeed6756]

I always thought if the riders were a little closer and open in US supercross and motocross they wouldn't burn out as fast. RV mentioned how much friendlier the atmosphere was in the GPs compared to the states. And GP riders seem to stick around longer.

[@racingfuel28]

Heck look at Cairoli, he raced for like 15 or 20 years, and was competitive right up to the last year or two of his career. He was competitive then too, just not that raw speed that nobody could even hope to hang with.

[@13SCARS_YT]

He mentioned Ian Trettle! If he didn’t get injured, I wonder where he would be at in the sport today… kid was so fucking fast!

[@roblilt7359]

Its awesome to see that the 3 biggest names that moved teams in the off season are having such good seasons between Eli, Jason and Malcom. Great moves for all 3 of them.

[@Erick-di9gm]

Think Webb should try it.

[@joeharley7989]

Me and a handful of friends used to rent a bobcat to build jumps and whoops at that Gravel pit in Moriarty NM and I remember seeing Jason ride out at a Rio Rancho NM track by the Armory. He was young then and damn fast still. Great to see him as a Pro and very respectful and humble.

[@tylersvensson4468]

Star is the best team and known for one reason why, it’s because they give the riders what they want compared to other teams. If tomac wants the revs from 1-3k RPM really smooth but wants 4-9k RPM really agressive but still able to gain traction every where the team is going to get that for him unlike other. But tomac can win on a stock bike with extremely good suspension. His results prove that, tomac with really good suspension is unbeatable and that’s where his most dominant seasons came in back on the last generation kawi

[@jeffberg9522]

[@captnpsycho8231]

In the Vilopoto doc he was asked if he would do it all over again and Ryan straight up says no, because of what it did to his family. Crazy to think about, can be that successful and have some serious drama in the back ground.

[@adler819]

I remember pastrana said that was a big reason he didn’t like racing. You couldn’t be friends with any of the guys.

[@lazurus222]

Tomac especially this year has been getting in "beast mode" pretty much every race . Kinda why it's so damn gnarly Anderson passed him straight up in 2 mains so far at pretty much full steam for both . In no way has it really been decided who is fastest yet , but tomac has been smarter and luckier .

[@jjmoto65]

To me JA looks really fast but at times looks on the ragged edge and could crash at any moment. In contrast ET looks fast at times and rarely on the ragged edge. At times he also looks like he's fast but definitely has something in reserve if needed. He has definitely benefited with good starts(cable clutch?) this year, and he's riding smart this year winning when he can and settling for top 3-5 when he can't.

[@motofunk1]

It may be hard to believe but Eli's talent was muted by the Kawasaki. If you go back to his honda days and then watch the Kawi days you will see how the rear steer style the Kawi demands did not mesh fully with Eli. The Yamaha is neutral in steering balance, for Eli that means getting more front end grip, allowing Eli's style to talent to be fully utilized again.

[@Upthebroncos310]

That’s because Kawi didn’t allow Eli and John to go in the direction they wanted, Japan would say know and on top Eli didn’t have Ricky Gilmore for his suspension, now he does with star and star are willing to try what ever and it’s paying off

[@motofunk1]

@@Upthebroncos310 True, but at the same time the base nature of the bikes geometry cannot be fully overcome by suspension. That's the real issue. If Eli could make the Kawi work, he would have done it on his own bike at home, shown them the difference and convinced them to let him use it. The Kawi is a fine bike, just not the bike Eli needed for his style and comfort. Some riders feel and are effected details more than others.

[@Upthebroncos310]

@@motofunk1 he still did well for a bike that didn’t suit him

Beat Eli clean but also know when last weekend happens you have full permission to hammer down... on anyone. Jason is awesome full stop. I just wanna feel the same with his racing. It's weird in racing... that line between clean and not so much. You have honest hard racing then the / is crossed then things get weird. But that's why we watch, that's why the athletes get to choose and how legends are made. What do I know really but it's the only sport I even care to have an opinion on. I think all would agree even when we say we are not fan's or even hate a rider. We all still care. In the sense we are all watching a WWE match and we just hype it a tad. Nobody enjoys seeing riders get hurt. Point, the cleaner the sport is or attitudes of the night could literally mean someone isn't walking home that night. That's so weird to think about. This year has been one of the wildest I can remember and I can't wait for tomorrow night.

Boogle and Wilson probably buds .. point taken tho outa the top 5 or so usually there aren’t any real friendships .. as far as eli goes I think JMart and I’m pretty sure zacho would have a good insight as both guys trained with eli at one point .. pretty sure it was 2015 for Zach I think bc I remember hearing John tomac was coming to the races for zach even with eli hurt which I thought was cool so must’ve been 2015 ..
