Taken from their official website:
The motor mount has been redesigned to accept up to 4 locations of bearings to tension your belt, with one of those being height adjustable. You will also be able to see that our spur mounting is now screw less, secured by a single large plate for a more evenly mounted spur!
Redesigned body stops helping you lift the body when cornering to prevent scraping on the floor and giving inconsistent performance.
Easy to adjust caster angle by adding or removing shims to the front of the mount, without having to use special tools to measure caster.
Through axle design in the uprights giving better support and increasing consistency and removing unwanted slop.
We have brought back the quick change steering ackermann setting through adjusting with inserts.
Reinforced upper arms increasing suspension stiffness. Webbing can be cut for suspension flex tuning.
Top deck flex can be adjusted through the plethora of holes in the top deck by adding/removing inserts and/or screws in the provided holes.
Looks like a cool car, really reminds me of my VBC Wildfire D10 with the red bling , will have to see how part support will be in the EU and which shops will carry the car, but judging from browsing German Ebay, the brand seems to be somewhat popular over here, especially among the people running the "slower" classes, so that is good!

A few other features that haven't been noted include:
- Slop/freeness of the lower arms is adjustable.
- Shock positions on arms by using different inserts (can be seen in pics).
- The kingpin angle can be altered using inserts between the steering block and upper arm. Default is vertical (can be seen in pics).

any info on pricing and availability?

Interesting Servo mount: By moving ~65g servo mass up by about 1.6mm (104g*mm), you are theoretically equal on CG versus an overarching servo mount (~5g*20mm). So overall a neat solution to integrate the electrics plate

The preorder at RC Mart is $520. The regular price is $570.....which is crazy. I might as well buy an Xray. I have 2 Xpress kits and I buy them because they are affordable. If I spend $570 on an Xray, it will be easy to sell on the used market. There is no way that can happen on an Xpress kit.
