It's not an obsession for me. Personally i don't really see why the rear motor is such a bad thing but I don't have any experience with 2wd's myself.
But at my track almost every serious driver has an X6 and a few cougar SV's are underway.
Basicly with the current flow going for mid that's what i'd have expected.
Wasn't a judgement -on performance- from my side.
I heard one of the X6 drivers that saw lee's car without the body on. Saying it was basicly a B4 with some bits modified and that he wasn't very impressed.
But then again the X6 is based on the B4 aswell so...
My only worry is the cost. If it is a lot like the B4 can Tamiya match the cost of one.
Assuming it is more expensive will the changes they have made justify the difference in price.
