Clean sweep for Zalewski at MKGP

Having taken the 4WD win last year, Xray’s Bartek Zalewski has completed a clean sweep of this year’s MKGP winning both 2WD and 4WD at the British Radio Car Association promoted event. The annual 1:10 carpet track event takes place in the Centre:MK shopping centre in Milton Keynes and showcases RC racing in front of weekend shoppers. In 2WD qualifying it would be Schumacher’s Daniel Kobbevik who took the opening round but it would be Zalewski who would go on to secure the TQ before dominating the remainder of the event. Winning the 2WD final ahead of Kobbevik, with Schumacher’s Ben Smith completing the podium, in 4WD the young Polish talent was untouchable. Topping all four rounds of qualifying, he would again start on pole ahead of Kobbevik, Smith, Sw0rkz’s Micha Widmaier and the Team Associated’s Joona Haatanen and World Champion Marcus Kaerup. In the triple finals, Zalewski wrapped up the perfect weekend with wins in a A1 and A2. Winning A3 ahead of Kaerup, Kobbevik claimed second with the Dane completing the podium.

Xray X4 ’26 2.0mm Carbon Upper Deck

Xray has released this optional one-piece 2.0mm top deck for their X4 ’26 1:10 Electric Touring Car. Machined from high-grade USA made carbon material, the shape of the top deck has been specifically designed to achieve maximum traction and great steering characteristics at the same time. The one-piece top deck features milled holes for special tweak-free top deck screws and works with the centre layshaft location in the middle of the chassis. As a set-up option it is mainly recommended for low to medium grip conditions as the top deck increases the chassis flex, which helps generate more mechanical grip. Initial steering response is reduced, making the car more forgiving to drive. Featuring milled holes for special tweak-free top deck screws it works with the centre layshaft location in the middle of the chassis. The top deck can be connected to the motor mount using several screw mounting configurations.

Xray XB4 Narrow Composite Front | Rear Chassis Braces

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.
