I dont know if you guys are sick of looking at Xenon pics, but I snapped a few of the one I just traded and got today. Here ya go.
One thing I can say for sure is its super wide. Like IRS TC3 carbon chassis wide. I guess the motor/layshaft mount accounts for that. Kind of a bummer.

3 Speedtech- most are here in stock http://www.speedtechrc.com/store/ebp...?catmainid=269
4. I have been sticking w/ Tamiya only because of rules.
5 Ditto.
Looks like I can go up to A blocks but then I would be exceding the diffs...

Guys...I want to ask a dumb one here goes
I want to make the rear of the car have 0 or .5 degrees of toe in (as opposed to the 2 degree the stock kit has)...which blocks do I need? Seems hard to decipher. Id like to switch to aluminum so Ill need a couple of part #'s thanks.

i saw some more new hop up coming for TA05 in RCworld magazine, it's the alum endbell guard and carbon center shaft retainer (??) - if that's what it's called... u know the one that covers the spur gear and got the antenna post.
sorry if i used the wrong name
as long as you guys understand...
anyway, anybody heard anything about this? availability etc
by the way they are tamiya products so they should be TCS legal

Are those Tamiya based or you just mixed up with other brands ?
I'm looking for blue titanium. Just check AE but the size not match. Any info for blue titans ? (any brands)
