Inside San Diego SX | Tomac, Roczen & Lawrence Post-Race Interviews

I really love what I can do in 20 minutes, honestly. I really feel confident in what I'm able to do in 20 minutes and just hit my marks and you know, death by a thousand cuts kind of mentality, honestly. So like honestly all day I just look forward to the main. Like I don't like the qualifying, I don't like the heat race, like I just want that 20 minute main. Let's see who's put the work in and really get out there. I love it. I love battling up front. Like it's sick. You know, the adrenaline, just the race craft and being up there, you know, like I said on the podium. I had FOMO last weekend watching Kenny and Eli up front and I was just like, I know I can be there. We just had to make some steps and I think we did and it's just fun. It's just fun. Like I said, I look forward to the main all day long. The first pass, I'm like, okay, I think I'm going to make the stick and I can get away and sure enough, that didn't happen and Ken came back and then it was tough and once I got in front of him the second time, got back into a good groove again and thought I was all good. Like just watching Ken and kind of marking around the track. It was an amazing race. Honestly, I had a lot of fun. We're going back and forth and ultimately after I got passed by Eli, I just had like a lap and a half of falling in a terrible rhythm and got passed by Hunter too and then I didn't want to just back off and get dropped off. So ultimately had a lot of fun and I'm taking the podium, so I'm really happy with my riding again, but I just lacked in that like two, 3%, you know, but enough for the podium. So I'll take it. I think it just makes it overall more fun, swapping back and forth, you know. It was tough. You know, Hunter actually, from last weekend to now, he made a massive step forward and it was awesome to see that all three of us were kind of like gapping the field again. And then the last lap, I go over the tunnel and I hear this rev and I look over and I see a red fender and I'm just like, what in the world is that? And it was Hunter. So I'm kind of bummed at myself, like I just wasn't paying attention. So, and then plus the Lawrence's ride so quiet on the track, you just don't know they're there. I feel like I was somewhat lucky to hold on to that one. But hey, I feel really at one with this motorcycle and it's showing. I mean, of course the clock's ticking, but I've improved myself. So it's, man, this is a great spot to be in and of course I'm enjoying it. I keep saying it, but man, it's pretty wild to think this is the double nickel win. Number 55. Pretty cool.
