VOLUME 56 ISSUE 50 DECEMBER 17, 2019 P161 ROUND 9 Tomac said he felt like "total perfection" on the bike in Washougal. He reeled in both of his main competitors in both motos to go 1-1. WASHOUGAL MX PARK WASHOUGAL, WASINGTON JULY 27, 2019 1st PLACE (1-1) "I felt like at the Washougal time of the season that I really started feel- ing the grind of everything. At that point, we were holding the red plate, and I felt like that if I went out there with the 1-1 that it was going to make the right statement to my competitors. That's what the day was. Even though it is hardpack, I always had a good flow at Washougal. It's enjoyable as long as you're not eating the roost at Washougal! It's a fun track to ride, but you get pelted by that dirt and hard clay. In moto two at Washougal, the shadows and sun are tough, but I really enjoyed both races there. Other than some bad starts, I felt like it was total perfection on the bike. The second moto was mistake-free, and I felt awesome out there. When everything is in the right spot, right time and the right place, that's when all the good things happen." "I WAS ACTUALLY DOING SOME POINTS IN MY HEAD, AND I HAD GUYS MIXED UP, AND I DIDN'T KNOW WE HAD WON IT UNTIL I HAD CROSSED THE LINE. IT WAS A VERY PLEASANT SURPRISE."
