Powell Racing Components is proud to introduce 2 new parts for the Xray M18.
The first is the Six Shooter chassis. The Six Shooter is designed to use 6 2/3AA cells in a side by side configuration and includes a carbon fiber battery hold down brace. The 2mm S.S. chassis is 17% lighter than stock and considerably stiffer.
The second part is a carbon fiber drive shaft to replace the stock aluminum piece. The carbon fiber drive shaft is half the weight of the stock shaft. The combination of the Six Shooter chassis and CF
driveshaft will reduce the weight of your car by 8 grams. Combine that with the reduced weight of using 2/3AA cells and you've just lost 45 grams!! That is over 1 1/2 ounces. Losing 1 1/2 ounces on any RC car is significant, but on a 1/18 scale car, it is HUGE!!

Stay tuned because we're not done yet. We have more parts in the works to be revealed very soon for this incredible little car.
E-mail or PM for more information.
