New from Xray for its Front Wheel Drive Touring Car the X4F comes these Balancing Weight for XLP2 Shocks. CNC-machined from brass, the front left and front right 45gram brass weights are moved from the bumper to under the front driveshafts into the centre of the front drive train for improved weight transfer on & off power. Black coated & laser engraved, they improve weight balance and the rotation of the car.
Xray has introduced new Narrow Composite Front & Rear Chassis Braces for their XB4 1:10 4WD Electric Buggy. Available in two options, they are precision-engineered components designed to improve chassis performance and consistency on high-traction surfaces. The Graphite composite option provides increased stiffness compared to the kit Hard composite, resulting in improved stability, more precise handling, and better corner speed on high-traction surfaces. The Medium composite version provides more flex compared to the kit Hard composite, resulting in improved traction of the car and more forgiving feel, especially on low-traction surfaces. The Hard composite included in the kit provides balanced handling and is the most versatile across a wide range of track conditions. The rear brace features a narrower design, allowing the battery and motor to sit closer to the car’s centerline and fitting the rear carbon T-Brace for improved rotation and chassis balance. Both braces are key elements of the Multi-Flex™ system, allowing fine-tuning of chassis flex characteristics to match track conditions and driving style. The set includes front & rear chassis braces.

I came into this season with no real idea of what was ahead, and it turned into the best year I’ve had in Modified in the few years I’ve been running it. Becoming a National Modified Champion, along with a few wins and countless podiums, made this season unforgettable. More importantly, my goal going into 2025 was to come out a better person—not just on the track, but off it as well—and I truly believe I did just that. With that being said, my short time with XRAY has come to a close. I want to thank Drew Ellis, Brian, John and the rest of RCAmerica/Xray. Stay tuned for what’s ahead into 2026 and beyond!!’
