WRONG!!!!!
Agent Smith, you must be spying on some other company, because absolutely NOTHING is in C.A.D. at all for anything beyond the X - 60.
This is a very small company, with just one full-time employee, me. I'm not an engineer and my hands are totally full with producing and shipping the current cars, including plenty of X - 5 Squareds, and getting the X - 60 into your hands.
As Ellis and all the Boyz have proved and Darren has pointed out, the X - 5 Squared is ballistic fast, and it remains the easiest-to-drive-fast 4WD on the market. Look at Chris Long's interview in the latest issue of Racer. I think Chris stands by those comments even now.
So Smith, you are flat-out wrong. No C.A.D. period.
Now, do thoughts dance about in our heads about new cars? Please don't make us out to be slugs. Of course they do. Our entire Team communicates literally every day, and they don't talk about cultivating daisys. I can't keep up with all the different ideas we kick around. Heck, we already have ideas to improve the 60, and it's not even out yet!
We have said that the X - 60 will be our last Conversion Kit. When there is a next car from X Factory it will be the whole shebang -- that's an huge undertaking. Give us a break -- we've got to get the 60 out and go through Christmas sales. I'll take a break between Christmas and New Years, then it's into racing again with the CRCRC MidWinter, Cactus, Indoor Finals, it just never seems to end.
Then we'll see what we do.
We will announce several new Team drivers in the very near future, and not just in U.K. All of them have signed on to drive the X - 5 Squared in 2009. There certainly will be no entire new car from X Factory for over a year. We've got the three fastest cars out there right now!
