Everybody, including me on my personal X - 60, wants a car that never breaks. Big thick beefy parts made of relatively flexible material designed to last forever no matter what. But if the car does not win, nobody will buy it, so it's got to be stiff and we must save weight everywhere.
The perfect example is Traxxas, who at least for a while guaranteed every part on their buggy for life. The backyard bashers love it, but I haven't seen many on the podium.
At X Factory our primary concern is winning races. We do consider durability -- the vast majority of breakage on X Cars is the AE parts -- but we assume nobody ever runs an X Car in their yard, that the Family only run at organized race tracks. So we build the fastest race car we can and give the famous 50-50 guarantee.

you dont need to explain anything unless it was happening all the time......no one will disagree with what you have made,the X6 is nothing short of amazing,nothing is going to be %100 unbrakeable,but the one off is always going to happen and its how it is delt with is what helps......DMS do you proud
