Default Xray x10

Hello i am wonder if any of you can help me with this xray x10 what year is it? I am thinking possible 2013 model year but unsure.
got it in a trade and am wondering is possible to convert it to 235mm or should it be left as a 200mm wgt. I hope to run it the local pro10 class the track is small so 2s 17.5T is what was ran last i race on asphalt.



Last 1/10 pan car i ran was this VBC Lighting 10 LM back around 2015.

Definitely pre-2015. "X10 Link" maybe?

There are going to be some parts on that kit that will be a real problem to get ahold of if you break something.

I was not aware of this, what parts would you advise stocking up on?
or that may be cross compatible from other X10 versions.

You are running a car that is 14 years old. In the RC world that's an antique.

That thing looks like it needs an old nihm 6 cell battery. Parts will be a pain to source. It probably would be better all around to get something from 2020+.

I wouldn't say it needs them. It was designed with these batteries in mind and certainly allows for them, but on the pictures the OP posted, you can see it is also equipped to hold LiPos.

xray, crc, roche
I believe CRC and Roche sell a 235 directly. The xray's can be converted with after market.
