"You have brought him up a few times" Why Jeffrey Herlings keeps bringing up Eli Tomac - Gypsy Tales

[@mountainslapstick6170]

Love Herlings attitude, dude doesn't give af and says what he thinks. Crazy to hear him praise Tomac like that, mad respect 84

[@tacoenvy]

He’s praised him a lot in the past actually in past interviews. He respects the hell outta Eli. And Eli respect him equally.

[@LilSebastian_]

Why is it crazy? Tomac won three 450 outdoor championships in a row.

[@terryfonz4603]

Herlings mentioned the MXON 2014 or 15 it was Tomac and Dungey was his teammate. That race Eli crashes on the start comes from dead last up to 3rd railing the outsides that race is on KZbin! It’s one of the races that made me a fan of Eli! He had a shot at the lead but fell again and finished 3rd! He was the fastest guy on the track super impressive! Funny Jeffrey mentioned that race everyone should go see it! It’s awesome even on video what he did on those outsides passing was impressive on TV I could imagine in person!

Herling first race in America he won. The next day they made him crash off the grid. He was 40th, came back and won the damn race. Did so with a borrowed KTM with a different frame. Then in Florida he placed first again with Tomac 3rd. Herling is the better rider

[@jamesstenner8335]

Herlings is the real deal one of the fastest dudes out there ..to hear him praise tomac does not surprise me ..real men respect real men … would love to see those two go at it on a track that is neutral to both of them … that would be insane

I personally feel Tomac has always had more to lose with racing SX as well that he will back of if he’s not 100% feeling it. If he and Herlings both laid it all out there? My moneys on Tomac. But neither outcome would surprise me.

[@danarrington2224]

Unless you really pay attention, it is difficult to see the difference between Herlings or Tomac and everybody else. Think about it like this. If they win a 35 minute moto by 20 seconds, which would be considered an ass-whipping, you're looking at less than 1% difference in speed between the winner and 2nd place. That means that in a section of the track that Eli gets through in 30 seconds, it would take the next guy 30.3 seconds to get through. My point is that they can look at a corner or a rough section of a track and see that 1% when nobody else can. That's what makes them champions.
