I love my X6, my results have improved every race since I got it this year
c final regular with losi, 1a, 3b's with the X6 and the first regional of this year was a c with the losi again.
Disadvantages
1) I cant jump it properly yet. I suspect this is partly to do with the huge wing and mostly to do with a lack of skill. The wing is alterable obviously. Removing gurney certainly helps and doesnt seem to affect the downforce for the rest of the track (in the dry). The lack of skill I'll just have to keep working on.
* actually I decided to clarify this, there's 1 jump at bury I cant jump properly and to be honest alot of other people cant either. At southport where the jumps seem to be smaller, it seems to jump very flat!! *
2) I struggle to drive it in the wet. If I get on the power too soon, I loose the back end. I'm not saying it's not the same for every car though, rear ended or mid motored and to be honest I usually end up around the same place as people of the same ability as I do in the dry, ie see excuse 1, lack of driver skill
3) The gearbox can be tricky to fit/maintain (does this count as a disadvantege??). There's 4 screws that hold it in place. I've not had to rebuild it at the track yet, but given it took me a good while to get it in in the first place, I wouldnt like too
I honestly cant fault the car though, the things above are so minor when you consider how drivable the car is.
