Well I should have taken a picture of Steve's car without the body on it. The white car is the new X2 and the green/blue is my X1X. If you can tell the engine is moved way forward from the rear shock tower and centered more on the white car, also look at the position of the rear hub in comparision to the shocks, more of the rear of the car is behind the rear tires. So there is more weight on the front and more weight on the rear. Steve couldnt tell me what was going to be in the kit version, like I said earlier, he had alum. drivelines and different outdrives, but most likely those will be option parts. He also had plastic chassis braces, more flex he said, so the metal braces might be a thing of the past. Something was different on the engine mount too, I think he had a 3 peice with the screws out side the head to remove easier. Also he is running a 17&18tooth pinion, no more small pinions.
