HE PULLED OVER! Probably my favorite call in sports history. ET3 baby

[@iceKOId]

Embarrassing moment, borderline cheating

[@atomicbomberctc]

In my opinion, this is one of the best moments in Supercross/Motocross history of all time

[@roosthrower]

I agree.

[@grantisntwarm2886]

I agree

[@iceKOId]

Monster Energy has an insurance claim because it was rigged

[@BrianPeters110]

I know it was pure skill from Eli but I would still like to have seen Savatgy’s pit board on lap 9.

[@darrenbrock5286]

Yeh let tomac pass !!! Fact.

[@robinbone9537]

I don’t think the pit board actually had anything to do with it🤷🏼‍♂️it might have however I read somewhere savatgy thought he’d of given him some money for it however press can fake news and this was ages ago so I don’t know but I don’t actually think the pit board said anything about letting him by

Yea man , agree he do

[@eddiecastro3642]

Fully appreciate Savatgy a true team mate sacrificing for Tomas for a million dollar win...hoping he will get a fair bite too.👌👍

[@relyenterprisestx]

He didn’t get anything. Zero. There some podcast where he said not even a thank you.

[@ryangage495]

It was ruled by AMA that the only way Tomac could get would get the million is if nothing went to Savatgy. If that hadn't been the ruling I'm sure he would have seen at least some of it.

[@relyenterprisestx]

@@ryangage495 so he couldn’t buy Savatgy’s mountain bike or something for $50k 6 months down the road? There’s no rule against paying too much for something. But whatever. Savatgy hasn’t done much since.

I was there. I have never seen anyone ride that fast. Ever. He was a monster in that third race.

Thanks for posting this is one race to watch again.I love watching Tomac in Vegas I'd love to watch his last year on 250 east vs west in vegas.

[@Zane344]

I remember watching the event live. And when savatgy pulled over, I went bananas and couldn’t believe what I saw. Very nostalgic moment of my life.

[@johnnyskied]

Remember that time Savatgy pulled over to let Tomac by and he didn't even get a thank you payment??? Pepper ridge farm remembers.

[@carlosbarragan6729]

Ooooo geeezzzz ,,, id tip savagty a bit for that 1

[@daviddemento367]

You are right but I think Joey knew he was toast

[@Kole723]

Joey said Eli never even thanked him for pulling over and letting him by

[@sandyman69]

Joey was toast anyway, sure it was nice of him but he was never going to win that corner anyway, no chance.

[@BenWilson24]

I was there and was pissed. Savatgy was seriously rolling jumps and looking around for Eli for a half a lap, then he waved him by. Eli put on a hell of a show, but I didn't pay to see a race get thrown like that

[@shifty7749]

fax if savatgy didnt let up he wouldve won

[@mosthatedandroidtunernolim9800]

He wouldn't of won the money probably how he looked at it and he let his teammate who could win it take get over it smart move he Made

[@BenWilson24]

@@mosthatedandroidtunernolim9800 He has literally said that's the biggest regret of his career because Eli never talked to him after that race and the team dropped him. He threw the race. Nobody pays to go to a sporting event to see the event thrown.

Yup I want to know how much Eli gave him.Have to be a pretty shit person to not pay him

[@robertrice719]

@@SpaceRanger187 There are interviews with Joey where he says they didn't give him a dime. Almost wouldn't even acknowledge it. I think that has more to do with John Tomac than Eli... But that's supposedly how it went down.

@@robertrice719 guess when supercross comes to Dallas I'll go ask Eli what's up with that in front of everyone.. Wouldn't be surprised thou if Eli didn't get the money that it goes to the team or some shit

@@SpaceRanger187 Who knows how all the back end stuff works? I think since it's basically a bounty prize Eli would get to keep it all short of the taxes, but I dunno. I'm actually still a big ET3 fan. We all make bone head moves from time to time (if that's what happened) I think, if memory serves me correctly, the Savatgy interview was with Matthes.

[@Tide12NC]

That was a cool thing to do by Savatgy.

[@tysonhernandez2117]

Here to look at after round 2 of smx and jett letting kenny by! Im sure the ama was so pissed having to pay out 2 mill, 1 mill to the fan and 1 mill to tomac... and at the same place snack pack zack changed the trajectory of savatgy career after the second to last corner smash for the 250 championship! Hes never been the same rider since. Kind of crazy now looking back on that and all of this. Jett getting all this hate when ktm did it for a championship. It was done for monstercup, and a few more obvious times... most famous, let broc bye... spelled incorrectly like they did on the pit board. Ama, feld, mx sports have been screwing riders over for far to long. Think if nfl or mlb, nba players had to a entrance fee to put on the show-events-sports that make the promoters millions. This smx is a step in the right direction. The next step needs to be that no one that races any feld or mx sports ama pro sx-mx-smx races has to pay a damn entree fee! If the riders legit got together and pulled a walk out, it would change right away. Especially if it was the day of day of A1. I hope that i see that change in my life time and i trully believe that we will

[@imtheonevanhalen1557]

Savatgy got screwed all the way around...the AMA allowed the bs take-out by Osbourne in the 250 championship, and then dumped by Kawi after showing he out-rode Eli in this event in the final round. HUGE Tomac fan, but this was team orders and I suspect Eli gave him $$ props....you actually can't admit to throwing a race, but that is what happened.

[@eric6rock]

Nope, Savatgy got nothing in return from Tomac.

The only cool thing about the monster cup is the possible 1 mil. Other than that, the track was fucking lame. I wish they'd bring back the US Open Sx. Those tracks were sick

[@GeorgiaMadeAJ]

I'm an ET3 fan but, I honestly feel like the team made some deal with the guy who won the million. I kinda feel like it had something to do with charity or something because I think either way, ET3 was going to pass SV17. I remember how much a deal the fans made that year about the pullover. I think there was way more to the story than the public eye can see or something.
