give me your opinion...

okay so i have a Xtreme CR3 and i love racing it but its not really much of a race bike for what i race. its usually little AX races n stuff.
Should i get a shock, BBK, and forks. which could easily get to be over $1k.
or loook for a nice, cheap X4??
im leaning towards the X4 with a 146 or 150...
any inputt?
thanks
