The 419 and 41x are very different cars and the XR has 30-40% new parts. Their numbering system is different than X Ray and Yoko that release the same chassis with a slight change and cal it 17, 18,
Thats what I was thinkin
Where is any manufacturers ALL NEW chassis?
All of them just refine bits and pieces and call them blah blah '16 '17 '18...
Cool if F1 is not your thing but Tamiya's F1 is full redesign.
XRAY? Nope. same X1 '15 '16 '17 and now '18 with some tweeks for sure but just sayin 4 years of tweekin, all good. I run it as well as Tamiya's.
Hell, Tamiya even called theirs X1 first
Not a thing wrong with the new XR, pretty fresh and definitely competitive any level.
As far as USA pricing change, WTF IS UP WITH THAT?
