Born from Grade-A competitive racing stock and professionally guided through the amateur ranks, longtime Monster Energy-backed Eli Tomac stands tall as a testament to the greatness of American motocross. In 2022, Tomac put down what will be remembered as one of the greatest years in professional motocross racing history when he won the Monster Energy AMA Supercross Series championship, followed that up by winning the Lucas Oil AMA Championship Motocross Series (in an epic, down-to-the-wire battle with Monster Energy’s Chase Sexton), helped Team USA to the Motocross Des National title and, for good measure, dominated the opening round of the inaugural FIM World Supercross Championship.
Tomac’s career began on two wheels, spun from the DNA of his professional bicycle racing legend father, John Tomac. Committed to dirt bikes over mountain bikes at an early age, the Colorado-based Tomacs hit the amateur MX scene. From California to Vegas, stops in Texas and Missouri, Florida – all culminating with the Monster Energy Amateur National Championships at Loretta Lynn’s Ranch in Hurricane Mills, Tenn. Under the competition-keen eye of his father, Eli graduated from 50cc Cobra bikes through 65s and 85s, eventually arriving at, once he turned 16, the bikes he’s still racing on today. When he’s not banging out laps on dirt bikes, Tomac satisfies his speed jones on mountain bikes, jet skis and sports cars – only slowing, and that includes one of the more grueling CrossFit training programs in the business, to spend quality time with his wife and children.
