There is probably a reason that so many entrants ran the XRay. Including many privateers. Quality!
The xray is a great handling car, with such great tunability, its hard not to want one. Furthermore, the quality of all the components are top notch. Yeah, they are a bit more pricey than the competition, but if your trying to be very competitive, then its a small price to pay, especially when considering all the cash spent on other hop ups, motors, batts, chargers, radios, servos, etc....
I always wanted an Xray, then I got one and ditched the TC3. I'm not looking back. i am way faster now! The car is great, and it does what I want it to. It still comes down to driver. The xray in the hands of a dope will crash just as good as anything else.

It's funny seeing all the posts about which car rulz, which car droolz, this cars the best, yours stinks, etc, etc.
Then in another post manufacturers are accused of cherry picking in stock or 19 turn modified....?
If the car is the determining factor why does it matter what class any particular "DRIVER" races in, especially when he is supposedly be running an inferior "CAR"?
Wouldn't it make more sense to not allow such an awesome unbeatable "CAR" into the stock or mod class, since "IT" obviously is the reason behind the wins?
Or does this fall once again under the "My car is the best, if it wins, but if yours wins it's 90% driver" rule?
LMAO, funny stuff from those who are "OBVIOUSLY" in the know!
