Xray have today finally unveiled the 2023 edition of their 1:10 touring car platform, the World Championship winning X4 ’23.  Key features of the new car include all-new XLP shocks that are 9mm shorter for improved cornering speed, steering response, and stability makes the car easier to drive in all surface conditions. The shocks are 2.6g lighter removing 10.4g from the front and rear of the chassis to improve weight placement while retaining the same internal oil volume compared to ULP shocks for consistent dampening. New pistons for improved travel from the more compact shock design ad new springs are 3mm shorter to match the new shocks. Front shock towers matched to short shocks are 8mm lower to improve CG with two optimised shock mounting positions. The Rear shock tower is also updated to work with the short shocks. Redesigned with additional material to improve durability in severe crashes and 8mm lower with 2 shock mounting positions to improve CG and optimise handling. The car features a number of heavy duty parts including lower bulkheads for improved durability while maintaining ultra-low weight with heavy duty upper clamps improving durability in hard crashes.
