Just need to hear your thoughts about two things on my Viper. 1st, I love this sled, just of 500 miles and getting real comfy on it and it can handle anything I can dish out. I have two questions.
1. I noticed some track skid marks on the inside of the tunnel up by the tunnel attachment wheel. I am assuming this may be from it being lose or landing awkwardly a couple of times when riding. Nothing looks out of place on the skid and it runs great. this is my first white tunnel so maybe this happens more than I thought.
2. I notice that I have some paint chipping away from the points of attachment (looks like a rivet but more flush) around the front connection bolt to the skid on the right side. I did case a culvert pretty hard this past weekend but the track seems to be in alignment. Maybe just a poor paint job?
Should I be concerned?

I wouldn't be concerned at all. I think you answered your own questions with the findings you see. I would just keep an eye on both those areas.
