Bad motor > dead esc, not the other way in 99% of cases I've seen around here. Seems more like you may have gotten something nasty inside your motor, that caused a shorted phase > cooked esc. Running in gravel you say? With a motor that has lots of holes in both ends?... (Im a bastard, but at least I try to be humerous at the same time....).

Ha ha. Touche. I'm nearly positive that nothing got inside my can. I was running on gravel yes, but it wasn't like rocks were bouncing off the chassis. They were being thrown 20ft from the rear. Now... DUST was flying around, but dust shouldn't cause a motor to konk out should it? I mean... people race on DIRT which is far worse then the 10min gravel session I had!

I have a crap camera here I'll try and use to get a pic. But I have a feeling it ain't gonna be good news. I'm going to contact Neu as well.
