Posted October 24, 2006 Dimanche, j'ai profité de la visite de ma femme chez sa mère pour tirer une pointe jusqu'à Kampenhout, histoire de voir ce que donne le X-6 sur piste accrocheuse. J'avais 2 packs chargés pour me faire une idée. Malgré les feuilles mortes , les glands et les caillous (que j'ai grossièrement ballayé) et la dizaine de gamins qui courraient sur la piste (que je n'ai pas su balayé:starw: ), ce châssis m'a impressionné, il est ultra-sain (ce qui n'est généralement pas l'apanache du 4x2), ultra-vif avec le 12t que je pourrais sans trop de problème remplacer par un 10t et super facile à piloter. Sur les sauts rapides, il a tendance à cabrer du fait de son ailleron sur-dimensionné (j'ai pu jouer des ciseaux), mais le petit coup de frein en vol rétabli idéalement l'assiette. Le châssis, dans la configuration que j'utilise, est légerement sous-vireur en entrée de virage et se rabat tout seul à la corde en sortie, ce qui rend son pilote assez confiant, les changement d'appui sont vif et précis. J'attends avec impatience la première course TT pour pouvoir estimer ses capacités face à la concurrence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 6, 2006 J'ai participé au Trophée LCM Loos ce dimanche avec le "monstre" comme disent certains (je crois malheureusement qu'ils parlent de l'ésthétique :oo: ) Super journée, avec les gars de la Zone 442, on leur a mis une ambiance de feu!!! Malgré les problèmes de comptage, ce fut extra, ou devrais-je dire grâce aux problèmes de comptage, ce fut super extra, ça nous a permis de rouler 2 finales de plus!!! Le X-6 s'est montré très prometteur pour sa première sortie en course, réalisant la pole et terminant à la troisième place, devant il y avait le X-5 de Losi100 et un 4X2 local.

Posted June 5, 2007 X-Factory résolut le problème des nez de X-6 fragile comme du verre, voici les caractéristiques des nouvelles pièces : "As you can see, we have substantially changed the X - 6 nose piece to make it stronger and more durable. The new part is a direct replacement for the old piece. However, not only have we added material all over the part, but we have changed to a new material and molded it at a new shop with a different press and new molding techniques. The new part retains all the stiffness of the older pieces, but is spectacularly more durable. We tested the part in the street by repeatedly running it into the curb full punched... several times. We changed to another new nose piece, and repeated the process. And a third. We wore out two bumpers, broke two bulkheads, a front control arm, and the momentum of the batteries broke two battery posts. Paul's Factory Team blue front hinge pin brace is a mess, but all three nose pieces are just fine. In fact, the third nose piece has continued running through several test days and club races with no problems whatever. This is the first of many new X Factory parts coming this summer. We have spent the last two weeks in the L.A. area working with a new molding shop. We have already made several exciting new parts and there are lots more parts on the drawing boards. Keep your eyes peeled on the websites for updates and information throughout the summer. The new part retains the same part number, but rest assured that the new nose pieces are now included in all X - 6 kits and every part #1002 sold. We are actually scrapping about 100 old nose pieces because we know the new part is so much better." http://www.2wdrc.com/index.htm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 1, 2007 "These are the parts Chris/Dan,myself and the rest of the team have been testing for a good while now and the camber link part is a really good item to get and we pretty much use the part everywhere now. The motor support is just better as it means it doesn't come loose!!" Rear Camber Link Mod "On a few tracks I noticed that I had a little push on power and the rear was rolling a little. I wanted to shorten the rear camber link, but I also really wanted to keep the ability to rais and lower the height of the ballstud. And here it is, looking awesome too! We let the rest of the Team have sets and asked if they thought it worked. The resounding answer was "YES! " Most of us run them all the time now. They give the X - 6 more steering while at the same time allowing the rear to square up faster from the turn and therefore produce more drive...can it get any better?!?!" E. Stafford Aluminum Motor Plate Brace "Having run the car a few times I noticed that the screw was working loose due to the plastic compressing and then springing back. There was some unwanted flex going on with the part…so out came the drawing package!! Having spoken to the rest of the team the result was the metal brace seenhere: stronger in flex, the threads from the bottom won't strip out, and of course looks super cool in the blue!!" E.

Posted July 1, 2007 Carro de Cat 2000 EC Superbe !!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 2, 2007 Salut Wonderflupke, salut Columbo Merci pour vos félicitations :carre: En effet, c'est une carro de CAT2000 '98 ou EC. Avec quelques découpes bien placées et un cache couronne de B4 première génération, on arrive à s'en sortir. Même si l'appui de la carro d'origine du X-6 est sans aucun doute un atout, je trouve cette carro de CAT2000 tellement plus belle sur cette auto qui avouons le, manque cruellement de charme. Pour ne rien gacher, l'ouverture prévue dans la carrosserie pour la ventillation du moteur est carrément mieux.... alors que demander de plus :l @Wonderflupke: on se voit au GP de Belgique?

Posted August 2, 2007 ...Wins A-3, Finishes Second Overall Because HPI does not make a 2WD buggy, the team drivers can use any car they choose when racing that class. Atsushi Hara, former on-road world champion, chose the X Factory X – 6 for the recent Hot Rod Hobby Shoot-Out with impressive results. “The car is so easy to drive,” said Hara several times during practice and qualifying. “I like a car that is easy to drive. I can push it hard to achieve a good result.” And that’s just what he did, with lap times among the very best for every round. Hara used a box-stock X – 6 with no prototype parts. For Thursday’s practice and the first two rounds of qualifying on Friday, Atsushi used a plain yellow body while his own shell was being painted and overnighted to the track. Because he had never driven an X – 6 before, Hara’s starting set-up was similar to those of most B4 drivers, and Atsushi liked The New Math right from the beginning. Because he is sponsored by HPI, not X Factory, Hara concentrated on his D4 during most of practice, running the X – 6 just twice on Thursday. So the third battery pack ever in an X – 6 for Atsushi was round 1 of qualifying on Friday morning against one of the most talented fields that will assemble anywhere in the world this year. Every top U.S. driver was there. Yokomo sent Masami Hirosaka and Billy Easton plus several other Japanese drivers. Kyosho was represented by Team Manager Gil Losi Jr with Mark Pavidis and several engineers from Japan. In that impressive field, on only his third battery pack ever in the X – 6, Atsushi Hara placed third in round one with a 16/5:19 run that included 11 laps in the 19s and four more in the 20s. Fast lap was 19.60. Hara improved to 16/5:17 Friday afternoon in round 2 with a fast lap of 19.08, but the rest of the field improved too and this great run was a throw-out for Atsushi! On Saturday morning, with his own body on the car, Hara had one bad lap for another throw-out time (15/5:04) but he turned ten 19-sec laps and four 20s with a fast lap of 19.2. On only his sixth battery pack in an X – 6, Atsushi really turned it on in H-4 with a 16/5:17 good for second in the round! He also had the second-fastest lap of the round, a 19.05 just .03 sec behind other drivers who had been driving their cars for many years. Hara’s slowest lap in this round was a 20.7! So Hara’s two qualifiers to count were a 2 and a 3, good for fourth on Sunday’s A main grid. In A – 1 Atsushi’s X – 6 turned in the fastest lap of the race, a 19.0, as well as a 19.1 that was the fourth-fastest lap, but he was involved in several early pile-ups and had to fight his way up to seventh from tenth on lap 2. Hara finished third in A – 2, a scant 4/10ths sec behind Ryan Maifield. A first-lap crash dropped Atsushi to sixth, but he turned a very consistent string of 13 straight 19-sec laps to climb back through the field, challenging Maifield at the end. Atsushi kept The New Math out of first-lap trouble, finishing the first lap of A – 3 in third place. He passed Ryan Maifield for second place on lap 7 and set out to catch Cavalieri, turning an 18.9 along the way. Hara took over the race lead on lap 12 and finished with almost a 2-second lead. The win in A – 3, combined with Hara’s third in A – 2, put Atsushi and his X – 6 second in the final standings.. A superb result considering he put a box-stock X – 6 on the track he had never driven before. It must be easy to drive indeed!
