Xray have introduced the all-new T3R, the latest release from their design studios. The T3R represents the latest evolution of the successful Raycer concept, luxury at an affordable price. Based on their top end T3 platform, it utilizes a LiPo & NiMh multi purpose-designed platform, with the unique ray alternative drive-line configuration for perfect weight balance with either type of battery and electronics layout.

New from Spec-R are these suspension arms for the Xray T3 touring car. These new arms are shorter than the original versions by 1mm, which helps ensure better traction and handling. Made from a long lasting hard nylon, they are available for the front and rear of the car along with steering knuckles and rear uprights, which while similar in design to the originals, are made of the same material as the wishbones.

Xray have released yet another way to fine-tune your T3 or T2 based car with these new 4.9mm quick roll center holders. This matched pair of CNC-machined high-grade aluminium holders, marked H1 and H2, are 1mm higher with the same length than L1 & L2 holders, allowing the car to roll more. May be used at either front or rear. Using these in the front makes the car turn easier. Recommended for high-carpet traction tracks because it decreases in corner steering and helps to prevent traction rolling. Using the H roll-center holders in the rear increases corner steering and speed.

Xray have released a set of composite molded 8 and 10-hole shock pistons for two shock absorbers. 8-hole pistons are available with 2 different-sized holes (1.2 and 1.3mm) for changing damping (2 per piston). 10-hole pistons are available with 1.1mm holes and these pistons are conical for smoother damping. Big-bore pistons are manufactured from well-proven specially-formulated composite material to provide smoother action and durability. The well-proven molding production process is used to ensure perfect roundness of the pistons after production, so that the pistons will move perfectly inside the shock bodies for identical shock action in all four shocks.

Xceed have composite gear differential gear sets for Xray NT1 and Serpent 733 1/10th scale gas cars. The precision molded composite gears, combined with light alu shafts, create a lighter and super smooth working gear-differential. The NT1 set needs just the gears and shafts, while the 733 also needs the light steel adapters and small bronze bushings to complete it. For both cars the alu shafts are a direct replacement for the original ones.
