The XRAY parts are pricier and you'll more than likely have to order online but both stores do carry some parts. With the extra cost for XRAY parts you'll get back in durability and great parts fit. Just my opinion.
Thanks for the replies guys! Even a used XRAY is about the same price as a new TC6.1 (eBay). Those are freaking expensive! I will keep an eye on the for sale section here to see what comes up too. Half of the fun for me is building the cars but price may have me considering second hand for the right car.
Thanks again!
