Besides thank you, I can't utter any other word to express my gratitude towards SWorkz, Mr. Scott Yang & Mr. Terrence Lim. From the bottom of my heart, I wish SWorkz all the best.
Take care!
Best regards,

I think it's a matter of personal preference.
Some of us run the x & the others the s-system.

True..personal preference..both have its +s n -s.
Using the X, u really hv to take care of it, check it regularly n change the bearing much sooner than the S system. The price factor is another. X system hv better direct gear drive compared to the S..meaning acceleration with the X is more immediate..on paper n practical.
I manage to prolong the life of my X system by putting a thin rubber washer wrapped around the inner flange of the cvd - to reduce dirt n dust from going into the exposed bearing. It only cost me rm1.00 normal rubber washer tat u can get from local hardware to do it n I put a dab of silicon to hold it in place if it comes off over time.
When I installed the rubber o-ring washer new..there is slight friction tat prevents the buggy from free roll..its ok..cuz over time after a few runs..the friction will be gone.
I like the X more than the S tat enables me to enjoy my Sworkz even more.

I agree with you bro aqeel. Maintenence of the bearings are a must when running the x-system.
Can you please post a pic of your rubber washer mod.
Thanks

it last longer than 2 races..for those who did not take care of it, one race also can get busted. in fact anything if not taken care of it, can get busted in just one run.
same here..oso lazy..just take care of the important parts and spic and span after every bashing or race is not one of them
....got too many RC to take care of for my boys.
