XRay NT1 31.5mm
TM G4S 30.5mm !!!


interesting also that my r40 measures 32 mm top to bottom.....guess that car was ahead of its time....(and maybe in the x ray play/copy book as well).... ;)

I do love both cars the RRR and NT1, I'm a little new to the Nitro side of racing, and learning more each and every weekend out. It is a little funny here in Jackson, everyone thinks that they need a purchase a better engine to win... or beat me :D I feel that it is in the order, the driver, then setup, then engine. My point if you can not drive, or tune the setup, no engine will help, because you can not take advantage of power to the ground with out a setup in the ball park.

There are known issues with the RRR is a the rear end of the car, but that can be corrected with some thinking and modifications to the car. I would like to see if the NT1 has resolved some of this. My RRR is dailed, it is on rails on at the track we run at... (Just ask Baylock... I'm not the fast on the track, I just have been lucky with making it though the main with out any issues, both in the car, and avoliding the near hits... I look like this on the drive stand :eek: ) I wanted another car and I'm planning on running the ROAR Nationals this year. I have no chance of winning, and I really do not care about that. I want to get out meet some of you fine folks and see what I can do... my best is all I'm looking for, and if that is last place, I'm fine with that. I really enjoy the R/C group and I really enjoy racing these toy cars... That is what is most important to me... :nod:

I also enjoy reading the different views and the sharing of information that happens here on RC Tech. :cool:

This is not my first and won't be the last Xray kit, I really like their quality, support and yes those colorful manuals as well! :nod: PDF version doesn't tell the whole story, I have another printed version from my second kit, if anyone's interested pm me - it's free, including shipping...
Peace!
