Shane Mcelrath: Staying on Honda for US SX!

Really excited to start the 2025 SX season off by laying a decent foundation! Sorted through a bunch of obstacles throughout the day to start figuring things out for the night program and ended the main with 13th. Nothing spectacular and nothing too bad and I’m pretty excited about the room we have to grow. Really working on transitioning to the 450 style better than I have in years passed and it’s different, but doable. Would love for you all to check out my new series "Chapter Twelve", documenting my training and racing program! Thanks for all your support.

WTG Shane! Is the new Honda as bad as some folks claim? You sure wouldn’t know it watching you.

Yes, thanks for sharing and participating in the forum. I realize with normal IG/X social media needs it takes additional effort to post here with everything else you need to do.

I called it in a post a while ago after seeing you live in Brisbane round SX as you looked better and faster each time out. See you live on the 250 you haven't looked better and more comfortable in a long time. 250 yes but so stoked you got on the Honda 450 and with Yarrive as he is a legend .

I know all the old JMX Racing bunch is always pulling for one of the former regulars and hoping you can get back up where you belong.
