Xray XT2C’19 carpet specification 2WD stadium truck kit

Following the introduction of the XT2D’19 1/10th scale 2WD stadium truck kit for outdoor and low-grip track conditions, Xray now also release a carpet specific variant for high grip carpet and astro turf tracks. Taking most of the XT2D’s design features the carpet specification kit only includes a front motor, laydown gearbox as it is the current standard for high-grip setups. Otherwise the 2019 kit mostly relies on the XT2D 2019’s features, such as a narrower gearbox design, updated rear suspension mounts, multi-functional rear uprights, 2.5mm pin driveshafts and new rear suspension arms that allow to mount the shocks in the front or the rear of the A-arm. Included in the kit comes an upgraded gear differential with new, hardened outdrives to accommodate the 2.5mm pin driveshafts while an updated hardening process ensure longer parts life. Also included in the kit are hard-composite steering blocks for improved handling in high-grip conditions, 4.5mm rear hex adapters, and a mix of greased and oiled ball bearings for improved durability and a free-spinning drivetrain.
