Was there really any doubt? For $349.00 it would have been just wrong to not have the graphite components.

I don't know why people assume that having all graphite components make a car less neebie friendly. Graphite or not, you hit something hard enough, your gonna break!

The only thing that makes this car non neebie friendly is the price. I know I wouldn't recommend it to a new racer for their first car. Why??? Cause their likely to expect too much. Can't you just hear it..."I spent this much on this car and the best IT can do is 5th in the D-main" (cause remember when your new, you think that your great when you win, and the car sucks when you lose.....wait a minute...that happens with veteran racers too!) When I'm asked whats a good first TC, I always point people toward the Xray Raycer. Low price/high performance, and neebies will feel good when they take a "budget" car to the C-main win or something.
