Thank you. Some people say things that are just a guess based on a video or something. Good to know you have had your hands on the X and actually "know" this about the car.

I have been doing some research on vehicle setup. When you say more steering, do you mean overall steering, in corners, middle of corners, exiting corners?

it definitely takes time. Maybe because it's a new style. It went together pretty good but you have know your screw sizes too. I can build a 4.0 fast but this took longer. Also it has you build different from all other cars basically you don't bolt anything to chassis till the end build all small parts first.
