McElrath is the only survivor through all 31 rounds with Sexton, Stewart, and Anderson not making it through the finals. And he did that switching teams & bikes between Washougal and Unadilla.

How can you expect anyone to make every race next year? One week off between sx and mx...

Edit: No one made 31 rounds in 2023. Sexton, Plessinger, Cianciarulo, and Noren were closest, missing 3-4 rounds.

Chase "made it" to the final round. He was on the start gate. Do you have to score points to make it? 

Shane was 21st in Foxborough so that is 0 points.

21-24 at Hangtown is that 0 also?

I’d count every gate drop. 

If Chase didn’t start the second Moto, he didn’t complete it IMO

Wow, good catch. Mr Consistency 😎

He probably didn’t place as high as he wanted, but it seemed like he got stronger as the season went on.

Woah. Yet I don't think I've noticed him on the track once in the whole year.

He got about as much attention as everyone 10th and below.  Unless they crash spectacularly...we don't see much of them.

Did Mcelrath finish every race? 

Surely he had one mechanical?

Not mechanical, but I'm pretty sure he had a DNF at Foxborough when Mookie crashed into him

Yep, those results are pretty head scratching, considering he was battling for championships in the 250s.

As a fan I can’t complain but as a racer it would suck I would think haha. I know people say it’s hard in the real world but that’s a gnarly grind plus travel, time away from family etc
