WELL THERE ARE 2 MORE OF THESE OUT THERE SOME WHERE AND YES PAUL SINCLAIR IS THE OWNER AND I KNOW HIM PERSONALY AND RACE WITH HIM. ALSO THE FIRST TIME I EVEN MET HIM I HAD THE CAR AND HE WAS DELITED TO SEE IT AND WAS SURPRISED I ENDED UP WITH IT. VERY RARE FIND AND YOU GOT A SCREAMING DEAL ON IT !!! SO TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION AND THE DRIVERS I COULD NOT SAY WHICH ONES DROVE WHICH CAR BUT THEY DID A LOT OF TESTING WITH THEM. SO THEY ALL HAD THERE CHANCE AT THE WHEEL OF THESE PROTO TYPES. AS FOR PICS I WOULD HAVE TO ASK PAUL IF HE HAS ANY. I WAS GOING TO OFFER THE CAR TO HIM BUT JUST DECIDED TO LIST IT ON EBAY.THERE WERE 11 WATCHERS AND I THOUGHT FOR SURE IT WOULD OF HIT 200 OR MORE. I SHOULD OF HAD IT END AT A LATTER TIME.. I HAVE 6 X FACTORY CARS AND TRUCKS THAT I RACE. INFACT I JUST EMAILD PAUL TODAY WITH A QUESTION...THANKS BRETT

Must be from Don? Hahaha j/k

Nice find!

That's not a Losi based prototype. It's B4 based. I had their X6^2 for a while.

so its an associted? not up on these newer rc's. so what did this prototype wind up becoming? if a pic can be posted that would be great thanks. orginal add for car:
THIS IS A NICE USED X-FACTORY X-6 CUBED PROTO TYPE MID MOTOR. THIS IS 1 OF 3 THAT WERE MADE BY X-FACTORY AND JWG RACING WHO CNC THE CHASSIS.THIS BUGGY WAS RAN BY THE OWNER HIMSELF AND A FEW OF THE TEAM DRIVERS FOR TESTING.A FEW YEARS AGO JUST B4 THEY CAME OUT WITH THE CARBONFIBER EDITION.I HAVE DROVE THIS BUGGY A FEW TIMES AND IT WAS ON RAILS.IT HAS LOSI BIG BORE SHOCKS, AVID ALUMINUM STEERING RACK, AVID SLIPPER CLUTCH SET UP,LUNDSFORD TITANIUM CAMBER AND TOE LINKS,RPM BALL CUPS,12MM HEX CONVERSION...THE BODY IS NEW AND WILL NEED VELCRO PUT ON THE INSIDE SIDES OF IT SO IT WILL MOUNT TO THE CHASSIS VELCRO MOUNTS. THE ONLY ISSUES WITH THIS CAR IS ONE BEARING IN THE FRONT RIGHT HEX CONVERSION IS A LITTLE GRITTY FEALING AND THE LAST TIME I DROVE IT I BLEW OUT THE IDLER GEAR IN THE TRANNY. BOTH WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED AND IS A $10 FIX. OTHER THEN THAT THIS CAR IS VERY NICE. X-FACTOY USES ASSOCIATED DONER CARS TO COMPLETE THERE KITS.JUST LIKE CENTRO BUT A MUCH BETTER PRODUCT.SO B4.1 AND B4.2 PARTS ARE WHATS ON THE CAR.

ya i understand now, found paul sinclairs site on these cars. emailed him on this car hope to here back.

It became the X6 Cubed, the third iteration of their B4 based mid motor buggy. It's still their current car.

thanks for the info. still waiting to here back from mr. sinclair.

looks a nice car!

Just ordered a new set of wheels/tires from a nib b4.2 kit. will post up some pics when i mount em.

more info from paul sinclair:
Hello Mike,

Back in 2013 when we were testing ideas for the X - 6 Cubed, one of our drivers made a few aluminum chassis - I have one here at the shop that we tested with. However, we decided to go with the CF material fairly early on in development, and the X - 6 Cubed became what it is now.


I ran the aluminum chassis but not for a long period of time, and we have no pictures of the car assembled.

all done

Tight. Lets see it run.
