I finally had a chance to get out and beat the snot out of my X-Ray today. I decided to keep running until I broke something. Went to a local BMX style bicycle spot and flew like a bird. I was getting some huge air, up to 15 feet high and 20-30 feet in length. It took everything I could give it for 5 1/2 tanks. It finally took a dump when I stuck it into the side of a hard packed jump trying to clear a Quad at full throttle. I sank the right front wheel into the front side of the 4th jump. Locked it up solid.

After bringing it home, cleaning it up and assessing the damage everything on the buggy still looked like new with the exception of the inner right wheel bearing. The impact knocked the inner race about a 16th of and inch out causing it to lock up.

I have to say I'm impressed with the durability of the buggy. I'm going to try and get it out to a race next weekend. Ill have to see whats going on.
