MOmo,if you have a B4,X Factory has just updated their X-6 kit to a one piece chassis and lots of other improvements-The X-6 Squared.
I bought my X-6 second hand,with the OG 3 gear tranny,then bought the 'Total 4 Gear Update Kit'.
What an awesome car...I've since driven stock B4's and the difference is night and day.
Takes a little tinkering to get them to jump level,or with the nose slightly down,but it's all good!

Here's my 4 gear X-6.
I gotta buy a new body and paint it up in my colours...

That stoopid 'Orion' decal pi**ed me off,so I swapped it out for a Protoform decal I forgot I had.
Much better.

Why would you put a Protoform sticker on a J Concepts body???????????????????

'Cause I didn't have a big enough J CONCEPTS decal!

At least it ain't an Associated decal on a Losi!

Yea, I've kept my eyes open for a decent X-6 squared kit.

My B4 still sits unfixed from the last race damage (caught a pipe and tore up the front end.) I picked up a used B44 Roller from a friend and haven't really drive it either. The only car that seems to get any action is my RC Drift car.

My arsenal includes: B4 FT, B44 FT, and a vintage RC10. I also have a GT that I haven't run in years. Got my "team colors" and everything. Sadly the only Indoor offroad RC track recently closed and the closest outdoor track is over an hour away. plus $$ is tight so the extra activities are on the back burner.

I really like the looks of the X-factory. Once $$ is plentiful again and we get an indoor track (cause it rains alot in the winter in oregon) I'll try racing again.


Nice work!

Thanks MOmo.
I recently sold my fave car-my Yokomo MR-4BX.
I loved that damn car,but the cost and scarcity of parts was killing me.
Got a stupidly good price for it and bought a brand new B44 FT kit.
Hope it arrives soon.
Also hope it isn't a huge let down when I drive it and compare it to the Yoke.

I'm sure you'll like the B44, I know I liked mine . Pretty good car with loads of potential with the right upgrades/tweaks.

Yea. I had the BJ4WE and was very happy with it, but finding parts was somewhat difficult. Then the front mount for the suspension broke, along with some others. I really liked the car (and being different) but when the B44 became available, i figured in keeping w/ my AE family of cars, I'd swoop it up.

I think you'll like the B44.

I can't wait to try my hand at the X-Factory cars.
