Should I buy one?

Should I buy one? I have heard that there is more grip on the front end which i do not like in my b4, i like understeer :P.

It's more balanced all round, I have been known as 'captain understeer' but mine gets round pretty fast

Ive run my b4 now for a few months and have just started to get to grips with it really. It handles ok ( i thought) until i had a go with someones x6 on wednesday. I was amazed a 2wd could handle this well. Where you would normally have to really concentrate on balancing the steering and throttle to stop the back end swapping with the front, you could just power on and not worry you were piloting a 2wd. It did handle and fly very much like a 4wd, as everyone says.
The only downside is that it did seem to "push" a bit but this made it so easy to get round the track. Dont drive one unless you have some spare money because you WILL be converted to the mid motor layout. I need to convert my now B4 now. How do i tell the mrs im going to spend more money?

i used to run a b4 and changed to the x6 then upgraded to th squared all i can say is to time80 is when you decide to change you b4 you may as well just convert it as the cost comparison is about the same plus coolcars if you know someone thats got one have a go mate you ll never look at the b 4 again in the same way mate

if i had to change my 2wd now i would nt buy anything else cause the maths behing the x6 squared and x6 bring home the true results buddy

thanks for the reply blitzboy. Didnt we batlle at rhr when you ran your rb5? and lost a rear tyre int the 3rd round? Really enjoyed that.
The x6 is great and i will be spending some money very soon. You may be getting a shell your way in the near future

[blitzboy]

yer but it was my x6 squarred that was a mad day i could have won that too if that darn tyre did nt come off ,it was good , i was flyin that day too

Timee, dealing with the wife is easy. After you have (amazingly) completed some odious chore you have been putting off for months, give her a big hug and a nice kiss, tell her she's the perfect woman for you and how much you love her, then say you're buying a little hop-up part for the R/C car. She'll be in a total daze and won't notice the last bit...

Or do what i used to do and get them all sprayed the same, very few women would actually be able to tell the difference.
