I was asking myself that very same question. I decided to go with the Pro Black Special Edition... why?
Cause I'm told the X1 wont be in the US until August but not only that. Tower lists the X1 at $275....
That apparently is WITHOUT wheels, Tires, Body and wings! Maybe even without a motor too! So.... you will only get the rolling chassis!

My main reason though is that I want to get the car now. After 15 yrs of Nitro and electric touring car, this will be my first F1 car.... so some learning to do

Plus.... as has been stated here and I believe. The difference in the cars will not mean the difference between 1 and 10th in the worlds or even the state champs let alone a club race. Not for me that is .......

That was my reasonning.
(Although .... the X1 does look a cool car!! )
