Alexis dropped out of Trans-Am and fired off a few Stardust Pursuers to swat away a few of the obstacles Dani threw up in from of her and Sakuya so her Exia had room to squeeze the bulky Trans-Am Booster on her Exia through with out it get torn to shreds. When she brust through the other side, Alexis's Exia had taken a little superficial damage here and there in the name of protecting more important parts. 

The moment she was clear, her Exia went back into Trans-Am almost immediately to catch up to Sakuya, intent on finishing that 'drag race' they where having.
