Bent, will a YZ-2 body fit on the XB2? I thought I saw some photos of prototypes running with YZ-2 bodies in the past year sometime.
And thank you for providing your insights about the Xray cars! It is absolutely great to get the inside story on the product development! Please keep it up.
PS- Will Xray release a Titanium screw and turnbuckle set for the XB2? I don't know the XB4 well enough to know if Xray produces these for their offroad cars or if it is strictly an aftermarket thing?

Can someone explain how to tune with the eccentric suspension bushings? For example, the difference in bushings for low, medium, or high traction?

It allows you to change the track with and rollcenter at the hinge pin.Running the hinge pins in narrows the car at the hinge pins which allows that end to roll more which can create more grip. Moving the hinge pins up raises the roll center and keeps the car flatter in the turns, moving the hinge pin down lowers lowers the roll center allowing the car to roll more, which can create more side bite. You can also adjust the anti squat and toe in....

Towards the back of the Hudy on-road tuning guide, they post a nice reference chart that shows how to get more traction, and I've found it fairly universal for my off-road cars too:

As for RTR weight we are at 1515-1585 depending on added weight.
1515g is RTR with full size Futaba servo, ORCA 4800mAh shorty, all stock hardware and Schumacher pre-glued Cut Stagger/Mini Pin tires on Schumacher wheels.

Where are you running your battery ?
Do you have downstop shims in any of your shocks ?
What wheelbase/shims do you run on front hubs, rear arms and rear uprights ?
Are you running hard or medium rear arms and uprights ?
What screws are you running for the motor mount brace on top and bottom ?
