Great experience - I ordered front and rear carbon shock towers for my DE. It was $10 shipping I believe. Took about a week. Super fast, good communication with seller. I got 1mm droop added to rear tower, you can request customization. Keep in mind website prices are in AUD so price goes down in US dollars.

Much better. Running daniel Grobe's setup for the most part. Except running the rear shock on the inner hole on the arm. THat allowed me to rotate much better since I'm already laying down the shock on the tower. Big difference for me in rotation and less lazy in the turn

Compared to other cars in the market, the XB2 lacks enough rear drops to handle the bumps and surface of a dirt track. Aside from removing the shims inside the shock body and the obvious shock placement adjustment, can Xray please design a revised shock tower to accommodate for the lack of rear droop?

+4mm Rod ends and unscrewing a few mm more should give you all the droop you need for low bite. Bezerrk also makes carbon towers for both the DE and CE that can be ordered with up to 5mm more droop, if need be.
Personally tried the long rid ends and liked them on low bite, outdoor track running holeshots. Indoor medium bite wanted to take them off, as the buggy would wander a bit mid turn, leaning too much and reminded me of what I didn't like in my b5m... 2 cents

I plan on getting to OCRC this coming Saturday. If you're there, I'll come find you to compare notes.
We can talk to Mike as well. Do you know if your setup is close to his?
His car seems pretty good.

I use the kit kickup, and inner hole on rear arm. Adrian Ramos picked up a sponsorship from XRAY. I would ask him. 21 second laps. He runs stock

Then I also installed them in the front it became a little difficult to get less than 22mm ride him eight. But the car handled even better. This is what was missing on the XB2. By the time I freshened my shocks and got used to the new handling. I shaved 0.5 sec.

My XB2 carpet edition pushes on turf can anyone give me some setup advice on what I can do to add steering to it?
