Yokomo is a great car once you buy all the hop up/required tuning parts. Graphite parts on the Black Series are very brittle. I would recommend the Xray over the Yokomo to a newer racer or somebody that doesn't want to build a car and the have to order a couple hundred dollars of other parts to tune it
New diff now comes with orange o-rings and hex screws for the diff, I never had any issues with the standard o-rings. The new diff seems even tighter with the new o-rings in though, even with sanding them down. Has anybody else had any experience with the new diff, I assume as this is a going change to the car that new kits will change over as well?
