Now fire away at me........

IMO, it's a cross between a RRR and MTX-4 - taking the best of both, improving on each's shortcomings, adding some goodies and turning it into one fine nitro touring sedan. If you go through the MTX-4 manual (click here), you'll see why it's a little of both.
Just remember, when it passes you at the track, it's your driving.

For completeness, it would have been good to include an explanation of tire split and why you would want to run smaller tires for a qualifiers. A separate booklet on tires and tire strategies would be awesome.

I did find something in the quick reference table booklet, but not quite what I was looking for...
When using the 25T mid-side pulley:
If you use the 25T mid-size pulley, the ODR ratio is 1.04:1 (based on gearing ratios alone); the front wheels rotate 4% faster than the rear wheels.
When you start racing the car with rear tires that have a larger diameter than the front (for example, a 2.0–2.5mm difference), this tire size difference will neutralize the ODR and the car will be balanced with no push between the front & rear wheels.
However the rear tire wear is usually higher than front tires wear, which means that after some running time the diameter of front and rear tires will get equal and then the front suspension will start to pull (the rear suspension will brake the car).

From other xrays I've built (electric TCs), I would start with shocks - they use the same in NT1. Make sure you build the adjustable ones, fill them up and let them sit overnight if you can. Be patient when you bleed them. Good instructions are here, second post from top.
Other than that everything fits perfect, xray makes best molded parts in the industry, no need for dremel tool
