Xray XB808 adjustable rear hub carrier

Xray have released this aluminum XB808 adjustable rear hub carrier. CNC-machined from premium lightweight Swiss 7075 T6 aluminium, hardcoated for extra durability and long life, it offers new and unique possibility to adjust the roll-center in 1:8 off road cars. The upright has 3 holes where the upper linkage can be mounted by aluminum ball with thread, while aluminium shims can be used for increasing or decreasing angle of roll center. Smart Xray engineering includes the use of composite bushings to secure ball-bearings in both sides of the hub carrier, allowing perfect fitment and smooth operation to ultimately impart much higher lifespan compared to bearings installed directly into aluminium hub carriers. Additional roll center adjustments are possible through the use of composite roll center bushings which can be inserted in two different orientation positions for the pivot pin. Holes in the upper position give +2mm upper roll center, while holes in the lower position are equal to the standard composite roll center position.

Xray Column – Shake It, Baby, Shake It…

The 51st installment in the Xray column from Xray owner and chief designer Juraj Hudy is now online. In this months column, Juraj talks about this year’s toy fair as well as the roll out of the new RX8 1/8th scale chassis including its first win at this year’s Florida Winternats.

Almost daily we receive reports and feedback from the team around the world and with the exception of a few minor issues I was aware about, all the feedback was similar: the car is easy to drive, had plenty of traction and steering (even if the track conditions were not optimum) and the effects of small set-up changes were immediately noticeable.

Pro-Line Suburbs SC 2.0 tires

Having brought you a sneak peak of the new updated Suburbs from Pro-Line, the US company has released full details on these new tires. The Suburbs SC 2.0 feature a wider tire design so you can put more rubber down and get better traction, all while remaining within ROAR tire rules. This tire is also super long-lasting because it features more pins and a deeper tread. The Suburbs SC 2.0 tread design is ideal for high traction conditions, which is often found at indoor clay and outdoor blue-groove tracks. Included with this tire is the new soft closed-cell insert that achieves even more traction because the tire conforms better to the bumps and jumps on the racing surface.
