XRAY RX8E 2023 1/8 Competition 4WD On-Road Car Kit

The XRAY RX8E 2023 1/8 On-Road Electric Competition 4WD On-Road Car Kit features class leading performance and the quality you expect from a premium XRAY product. This 2023 version incorporates several updates to the chassis enhancing the driving experience further, to provide an incredibly tunable and competitive platform.  

NOTE: Finished kit shown in photos is for illustrative purposes only. This is a kit that requires assembly. See needed to complete list below for a list of items required to complete the model.

RX8E 2023 Features:
  • Redesigned chassis with narrowed front suspension pivots increases stability & traction
  • More chassis cutouts create greater flex in desired locations
  • Additional chassis cutouts improve cooling
  • Hard composite suspension arms combined with the improved central chassis flex keeps the suspension geometry stable while the flex is transferred through chassis and radio plate to maintain traction.
  • Narrower front suspension holders for improved geometry
  • Longer lower suspension arm shock mounting holders compensate for the narrower suspension holders to maintain the ideal shock absorber geometry
  • Lower down-stop mounting holders without the eccentric geometry make the car easier to set suspension down-stops
  • Redesigned front aluminum bulkheads with a lowered design
  • Updated front upper clamps feature integrated upper shock mounting positions, eliminating the need for a separate front shock tower
  • Innovative front upper shock mounting directly on the upper clamps adjusted via shims provide more flex on front suspension
  • Updated front upper bulkhead brace for easy flex adjustments. More stability with the brace installed, more traction and steering when the brace is removed
  • Lightweight front upper arm holder design
  • Ultra-compact and super lightweight receiver box moves the weight lower and closer to the center of the chassis
  • Shorter servo saver stand with key lock design
  • Updated aluminum rear radio tray holders are super lightweight and reinforced in critical areas to eliminate breakage, using fixed radio tray mounting for improved stiffness
  • Rear suspension holders are mounted to the chassis with 2 larger screws instead of 4 smaller screws for more security
  • Updated rear aluminum bulkheads have a 2mm front/rear wheelbase adjustment for easy traction tuning depending on the track conditions. Front position more traction, rear position more stability.
  • Rear suspension holders and milled pockets in the chassis plate reduce the lowest pin position by 1mm to generate more traction when needed
  • Anti-roll bar bearing bushings front and rear for different thickness of anti-roll bars
  • Updated anti-roll bar wire shape to match the updated bearing bushings
  • Lightweight one-way carrier for reduced rotating weight
  • Updated 9mm wider rear PUR belt for increased reliability and lifespan
  • Front lower bumper with updated body mount positions to fit all the different racing bodies
  • The aluminum front body posts with eccentric mounting that allows frontward or rearward mounting positions
  • Longer front lower pivot balls account for the narrower front suspension pivot to maintain necessary width adjustments
  • Graphite rear upper arm holders with more clearance above the rear belt
Needed to Complete:
  • 2-Channel Radio System
  • (2) 2S LiPo batteries or (1) 4S LiPo battery 
  • Compatible battery charger 
  • Motor
  • Electronic Speed Control
  • Wheels and Tires
  • Body & Polycarbonate Paint
  • Tools for assembly
