I borrowed the car off a friend of mine for the last round of the short course nationals. I managed to qualify 9th in the A final and had some good runs over the three legs to finish 6th overall. Since then I have brought the car I borrowed, changed it to full X2SC spec, and now it is going better than ever.

I would say if you by the X2SC then the only needed upgrades are changing the diff balls to some better ones and maybe an updated idler gear and change the spur gear to an 80 tooth one(although this depends what motor you will be running).

X2SC is a great car and a good price and definitely competitive with the other trucks on the market. It also doesn't require much in the way of upgrading.

Check out the X2SC setup thread in this forum for some of my set-ups
Hi, I'm running a Core with 9tezrun and the only failings have been the front chassis brace and the shell. I have just bought a JConcepts Manta shell for it and obviously replaced the brace.......have also ballraced and fitted stainless botls....I'd love to see your X2SC.....what are the differences between the Core and the X2SC? cheers
