Webb is fired up about Tomac being on Team USA and is ready to get things done!
Cooper Webb was a late addition to Team USA on the 250 class, but he shared on Vital how he reached out to Eli Tomac to emphasize his crucial role on the team.
Webb said, “I just want to let you know, I’m fully committed. I’ve talked to Aaron, and he’s on board too. If you make this happen, this is your team. We want you as captain, to lead us, and we’d love to have you. I really believe we can go out there and crush it.”
Tomac responded, “Yeah, I think we can too. Give me a day,” and the next day, Eli confirmed his decision, replying, “I’m in. Let’s go kick some ass!”
There’s no doubt, Team USA is here to win—MXoN 2024 is going to be electric!
“When I reflect on all the races I’ve ever competed in, nothing compares to MXoN—the energy, the pressure, and the intensity of the event are unmatched. I thrive on that stuff and can’t wait for it,” Webb said, clearly excited.
