T-Works have introduced hard-coated aluminium centre driveshaft joints for the Xray XB4 buggy. The parts are machined from high-quality aluminium, come hard-anodised for wear and will lower the rotational mass for improved performance. The 2-piece set fit the 2018, 2017 and 2016 variants of Xray’s popular 1/10th 4WD buggy.

Coming from Xray and made for the XB2 and XT2 series of off-road vehicles are a graphite composite diff case and matching cover. The specially formulated graphite material offers increased strength and a lower weight to achieve a perfect balance between reliability and performance. The diff case with 53T gear and the diff cover are available separately.
Xray have introduced graphite composite C-hubs for the front end of the XB2 and XT2 1/10th 2WD off-road vehicles. Very hard yet durable the graphite-reinforced parts are less flexible than the medium and hard compound hubs, making them ideal especially for high to very high traction condition where the parts can improve handling and predictability. The C-hubs are available individually for the left and right hand side of the vehicles.

Xray have announced the soon release of graphite composite ball cups for the XB8 series of vehicles. The moulded composite parts cushion the M15 aluminium adjustment nut against the 13.9mm front suspension pivot ball with the reinforced graphite parts increasing durability and smoothness of the suspension even in very dusty racing conditions. The cups come as pairs and are usable on all XB8-based kits including the GTX on-road cars.

Xray have introduced a graphite front wing mount for the XB2 series of 1/10th 2WD buggies. The CNC-machined mount is made from high-quality carbon material and it includes all needed hardware. The optional wing will be mounted in a low and more forward position which helps to fine-tune the aerodynamics for improved cornering and jumping.

Coming from Xray and made for the XB2C carpet edition 1/10th 2WD buggy is a graphite composite 3-gear gearbox. The item is made from a lightweight graphite composite material, understood to be lighter than the standard material, and of a narrower design. Using the part will reduce chassis roll while increasing traction and it is a direct fit on the XB2C buggy.

Xray have announced the addition of Tanner Stees to their factory team. The Arizona state champion and A-main finisher at events such as the Dirt Nitro Challenge, Silver State, Desert Classic or ROAR 1/8th Electric National will campaign Xray’s 1/8th and 1/10th off-road platforms and he has the following to say about the deal:
After probably the most successful year of off-road racing for me I am happy to say that I am a member of Xray Factory Team for 2018. 2017 was an awesome year for me making some of the A-mains at the biggest races in the US and I hope to continue the streak in 2018. The Xray cars and product have been some of the highest quality and best handling cars I have ever had and the team is awesome as well. They are always wanting to improve the product and will do whatever it takes to be at the highest level. Personally, I am super excited to keep working with the team and improving the cars and doing the best possible at all races.
