x60 truck

[Paul_Sinclair]

Were you at Columbus yesterday carbon? I was actually running stock (13.5) truck, as there was no mod class to run in. I borrowed a 13.5 motor from Dan and ran it. The truck was absolutely hooked up; I think anyone who watched it would agree - so fun to drive.

No, I was at Leisure Hours. As for the racer his name was Nick Sava (I had to look up his name as I didn't remember what it was off hand).

Nick Sava is a god among men. He is an excellent source for rc/Xfactory info.

That is correct. We will not sell a truck when we do not have all the parts. All that is falling in place. As Chazz has said, we had a supplier problem but that has been resolved. Kits should be available very soon.

Yeah, it was hooked up, the first time I've been beat in stock truck in a while. Paul let me take a few laps with the truck and it was nice.

Can't wait to see more of it.

hi i dont mean to be a pest to you guys i was hoping

i could of got for trackside offroad nat. i broke my son x-60 that i pcs together on the carpet track a marcca. so he will be running his x-6 and a b44 i will run my b44 and the
x-60 that i pcs. together.

my son aric is alot better drive than me.. we used to have a dirt track in madison wi. but they change to carpet so trackside 90 mile away it a nice place to race at.

i have been telling people this will change the way other will be made in the future. look at the bj4 and what it did for the 4wd class now the b44 set the platform to beat.

Yeah, it is funny how our son's are better drivers than us. Probably something to do with age.
I started out building and maintaining all of Alex's vehicles. He didn't know one end of a screwdriver from another. Now, he's an X Factory team driver and beats me in any class and gives me setup advice.

Me, I'm the idea guys. Give me a Dremel and some carbon fiber and I'll build a chassis or shock tower or whatever. I like trying new things. My personal X-60 prototype has had 3 different rear shock towers and 2 different front ones. Then there's that shock tower base idea....

is there anything new on 2wdrc

That and/or they just improve upon the genes that were passed down from you when it comes to RC. lol

[scrubnick]

Wow, I got a mention, how 'bout that? If you want to see someone blow out, there should be a youtube video soon of the mod buggy main from that weekend. Lead the whole thing until the last three corners.

Jeremy - Your setup you posted looks just like mine, oddly enough. It's worked great for me on fluffy dirt tracks and on Washtenaw's hard packed, kinda dusty and real loose track. At Leisure Hours, which is a worn pink taper track, it wasn't steering like I wanted. I think a change of front tire would help, maybe pink 8-ribs.
