I can see a RB6 RTR in another picture, an RB6 and what looks to be a ZX5 in the pic below. Can anyone spot the ZX6?

I suspect it isn't there because then everyone will ask about it. They will probably do an official press release around the same time it is displayed to the general public.

Top centre of picture, behind the mp9. Looks like a ZX6 to me.

I can neither confirm nor deny that it is a ZX-6 in the background.

With the recent announcement of the SC-6 being available in mid-March I wonder what the schedule is for this. I suspect once Jared and the rest of the team are happy with it it will get the green light. Until then, we wait.

Can't wait for this to come out. Heard March-ish... That's about the end of my indoor season as nitro starts picking up and I go outside.

Welp I may have just purchased a used ZX-5, but I am very happy to see Tebo is seeing better results with the newest platform, and that a shorty setup may be available with the finished product. Saddles always make me anxious, just too many wires to go bad. But until the ZX-6 is announced, I plan on driving the piss out of the 5. :-)

I love my ZX5 but I will be buying the ZX6 for sure. Its hard to believe it could be better but I think they might be on to something. I have held the ZX6 in my hand and all I can say is it is amazing.
I don't want to say to much I am just going to say its worth having both if you already have the ZX5

Why do you recommend keeping the 5?
