Default Convince me to go xfactory x6 sq...

Hi all,

I have run a b4 for a long time now, and like driving it, know what to change on it to tune it in, and find it strong, reliable etc etc (covers everything a good club driver would want really!)

However, with the release of the b4.1, i am contemplating either upgrading the parts required to get it to b4.1 std, or even going down the route of the x6 sq.
It seems they really havent changed much on the b4.1, just improved a few of the parts, and really improved the mouldings. They also seem to be merging parts from the sc10, not really a bad thing.

All i want really is for you guys to convince me to go down the route of the x6, and to why I should spend a lot more over my b4.1 parts. Also note that i have been driving rear motored cars for the last 15 years, so its kinda built in now!!!

Let the convincing commence!

Well all i want to say about the X6 is not to buy it, below is a few reason.

1. The car sucks cause you dun break anything and got nothing else to do at the pits.
2. The car can't be setup, cause the stock setup is so rubbish that i've always finish in Top 3 position in A Main at my local race.
3. The parts and advice support is so bad that u almost have a wait a few minutes for a reply.
4. The car is boring cause u can't spend money to make it better.

Let me think of other reason not to get a X6.

Anyway i've got a X6 Squared for almost a year and just got an X5 Squared.

I really need details as to why people think its better, not just say its as good as my b4. I nearly always make top 3 in the a at my club with my b4... Why should i go to the x6, and will I notice the difference?

Thanks for the comments so far though!

Basically it makes "average joe" a better driver...

Its easier to push the car and a lot more consistent when you do, best bet is to try one really and see if you like it... Ive always been a Losi man so while the X6 is a good car, it wasn't my cup of tea...

People will tell you to get whichever car they own, best thing is to ask around and try everything you can...

CR2 gets my vote and ive tried and X6, Cougar, B4 etc etc...

Personal preference
