Thanks

The Xray looks great at my local tracks. However, parts is an issue and my understanding is RCAmerica is horrible to deal with.

The Xray is the best 4wd I have ever driven. Amain usually has parts in stock so thats not an issue. That being said the car is pretty bullet proof so dont buy an abundance of spare parts.

Rcamerica is the easiest to deal with. You can call them and talk to Brian or Ralph about anything on the car and they will help you out.

I heard they have some problems with the gear and spare part are very expensive.

Racing of course.

Just found another tread about it

The 3 local track owners in my area advised me otherwise, so I was on the fence between an Xray and a durango V4

Idk then. I've never had a problem. I'm not trying to tell you to buy the xray but I do know the the quality of the xray is a lot higher than the Durango. Not sure about the bmax as I've never seen one in person.

I will agree xray parts are pricey but I've also never broke anything on the car yet in almost a year on it.

If racing is the purpose then I wouldn't get either. I'd go for a B44 or a 22-4. Just one man's opinion.

Go read through the XB4 thread and you'll see how everyone likes it. It's an awesome car, and a tank.

We've never had any issue ordering from RCA since they opened. They've been really great.

evolution03 03-29-2014 04:15 PM

xb4 is awesome buggy very hard to break. I haven't used any of my spare parts

Dan 03-29-2014 04:29 PM

LOL, seen too many B44's and 22-4's breaking at the track.
