Hahaha No. a few boobs were denting chassis (which Kyo replaced) where the tplate would have been but if i remember there were only 3 reports..
the reason everyone is giving Xray a hard time is b/c the fan boys said it was the going to be the best car ever released from day one (go look into this thread at the beginning) and TWO, ppl said the thin towers and plastic fantastic design would cause durability issues.
so everyone is getting there i told you so's in..
AND from the reports from Xray the car was predominantly tested on carpet, and none of the vids i saw had large jumps or many opportunities to test durability other than the drive train.
there are companies that have released cars recently (Kyosho, TD, Schumie, Team C, etc) that roll out new cars and while they may not be perfect they're small issues with easy remedies and wont sideline the car on a race day.
i like Xray, their cars aren't anything special but the quality is always good.
but i think we can all say, we expected better.
