[YoKoMo-MX4]

w3rD! I got in early. Don't have a number per-se ... but as soon as I heard about it, Chazz had an email. Should be an interesting buggy.

'nuff said,
MX4

[chris burgess]

it may go like a scalded rabbit and be the very best 2wd car ever.....but with a bodyshell that looks like that?

I think they nicked it from a radio shack buggy. ;D

[Northy]

There's going to be a new shell, that is areodynamicly designed first, looks second, but it will be better than the prototype.

[Cooper]

I'm waiting for a ttech 2wd before I buy a new one OR if anyone wants to sponsor me ? ;D

[PeterEllis]

Anyone remember the Fab 2000 the Fabbix conversion for the Schumacher Cougar 2000? That also used a contra rotated gearbox and so did the Tekin conversion for the RC10 ? You must remember Graham?

Corner entry speed is high but were there not handling issues

At least it makes a change from the establishment hurrah, the X-6 must handle well, I wouldn't mind one but I'll wait for a TTech

I'd love to see a top driver do well here with the X-6, when was the last national win for a non Losi or Associated car? Did the Fireblade ever win? I know the Cougar 2000 won a round in 1994?!

It's time for a change and something different hurrah for Hodapp and co.

[Northy]

Yeah I remember those two! Never got chance to try one though.

At the offer price I think its a bargain.

If TTech ever do release a 2wd I'll run it, but until then I want something different as 2wd bores me! ;D

Have I Missed something?, X-6 what the hell is a X-6?, my head hurts

[Northy]

Its a mid motor conversion for a B4 ;D

Very nice, never really fancied a 2wd though and if I did I think I'd probably be a bit sad and buy a Tamiya super astute, cause I have a bit of a soft spot for topforces and that was basicly the 2wd version of the evo.

[PeterEllis]

Any X-6's running at the BRCA Nationals then


just wondered, interested to see where they came in

[Northy]

They're not ready yet

[chris burgess]

i know this is slightly off topic, but does anybody know what the highest placed X5 was at the national in kiddy?

I am keen to see how these perform in the nationals, as everyone who drives one seems to think it's the very best handling car ever. guess they have never driven a pred.

On another note, i haven't heard anybody complain about the cost of the new yoke either, coming in as they do about £30 more than an X10 if i remember correctly!

[pro4nut]

Agree with every word chris, For an unbiased view of the x5 ask Chris Long on Doughty........

I have a friend who is getting the new yoke as my local store will not stock the pred, but consider the yoke good value?
, coupled with the sniping comments i get everytime it breaks frankly i wish i lived furthur north.

[Chris Burgess]

sniping comments? About a pred? Surely not!

I have to put up with those too, but I have found the best form of defence on the subject of preds breaking is attack! ;D Usually, I go out for a practice or a race saying, "oh I'll be back in two minutes" or "which bit shall I break today!"

Funny though, last time out, my pred was the only 4wd not to break more than once, and when it did break it was because I drove it into a brick wall.

Nobody laughs at a pred when their car is in pieces.
