With the tease of the new X20 yesterday, does anyone think that this is it for the 4x platform? The way I see it, they could have opted to call it an Eryx 5 (given that the Eryx was meant to be the “starter” TC platform for Serpent enthusiasts), but the fact that it has a new name and completely new design makes me think that 4X is being relegated to the back-burner.
I can’t help feeling a little burned. I purchased the (relatively new) 4x Pro in late July, simply because it was an out of the box offering. Now it looks like the future might be back to a more conventional design (albeit with the current mid-mount craze, thanks to that Medius decal on the hood of the teaser). I’ve had several things going on, so I haven’t been able to get everything I need to start building the car yet, so it’s still in the box. Given that it’s likely to use the same shocks as the 750 (the Eryx apparently does), I would probably want to switch just for the potential parts share around that... Anyway, just venting over here - carry on.
