Being an owner for 4 Xray's, I fell the Hudy's have dropped the ball on the innovation Xray has been known for in years past. Not much in this chassis to boast about, when it has been built on T-Bar technology that has been on the market for decades.

For innovation, it looks like I may have to go to AE, Serpant or CRC.

So much for being on the edge.

You know Xray, they gotta start here and then make a new car each year with a new innovation. If they blow their load now, they won't be able to drain our pockets in the next few years.

Looks like X Ray bought the rights to the A Team's 12L4.

I would imagine the T-Bar car will be followed by a link chassis option shortly after.

Since the HB Cyclone12 didn't win the worlds, they probably had to run out and buy a R5 kit so they could take new measurements.

I spoke with RC America last week. No pricing yet. They still expect for it to arrive in early January.

The XII started to ship on the last Friday so should be in first stores this coming week. Though deliveries to some cuontries outside of EU may take a bit longer due the freight and of course custom delays. Hopefully everybody who pre-ordered his XII for Xmas will find a nice present under the Xmas tree.
