Sucks when your first carpet race is this weekend and cant even shake the car down. Not that I plan to buy one but, I have seen 2 local racers opt for the TOP photon due to TC6 being unavailable. And the TOP is so easy to work on. But what do I know about marketability, supply and demand.

I hope no one races a TCX against you. My lap times went up 2 seconds when a went from a TC5 R to the TCX.
I used to be 4th or 5 th now I am first or second. IMO the TCX is a much better handling car than the TC 5.
I just sold all my old TC5 stuff. In the future I will go Hot Bodies or Tamiya.
The Tc 6 is not for me.

From what I saw of the TCX it seemed to have trouble finding its feet for a few meets but the TC6 hit the ground running,fast from day one!!and thats hard to argue against.
Put it this way its perfomance has dragged a few very good drivers away from well know trusted chassis for next year!!

More likely you have a car thats not all bent out of shape, has a decent kit setup on it, and isnt falling apart with stripped screws everywhere.

I love it when people sprout numbers like 2 seconds a lap. Man if you gained 2 second every lap you must have been REALLY slow before, and i doubt the different design is the deciding factor.

..its 4 sec over 20 laps that can mean a jump of at least 6 places in pro stock...2 sec a lap makes me world championship standard in mod LMAO

It is possible for this to happen with a new car, everyones driving style is different and some cars suit some people others don't. I expect that it is also something to do with the cars setup window. some cars, like the xray have broad setup window where the car can still be easy to drive if the setup isn't 100%, other cars are horrible to drive with if the setup isn't spot on.

I'm also the only driver at my track that uses AE in 17.5 with the only other AE car being in 10.5
