No carbon fiber cracking or anything. Just pretty solid.

The XB8 was my first 1/8 I haven't quite got it tuned to the track but before I ran the car I went with the soft arms the motor mount and the front brace. last race side by side comparison next to a prospec the xb8 was alot stiffer I love the car and haven't had any problem with the cf I still set my gear mesh a bit on the lose side but there haven't been any problems. I like the mesh a bit on the loser side anyway helps prevent wear on the clutch bell bearings. |

no hop ups are needed-"All Hop-ups Included" lol really all that is needed is the motor mount and front brace-beyond that the hop ups help but are more for looks. |

Use Search for the 3D Steering plate and you should get David's report on using the 3D Steering Plate. Aaron, David - maybe worth to add to the FAQ to explain more in detail how the 3D Steering plate changes/improves the handling of the car. We can update the product specs and features appropriately to feature all neccessary information. |

Ownage sorry took so long to respond but I have been away for a few... I have a bit invested in upgrade parts but I feel they are worth every penny. lhs will match internet prices so the parts I don't recall exactly but something like this engine mount 60.00 alu front brace 30.00 alu 3d steering 20.00 soft arms 4 22.00 Alu Steering Block 35.00 ea Alu Upper Arm Holder 25.00 so a total of about 230.00 plus the kit keep in mind not all of the parts are required I got mostly for the bling factor  and right now I am the only one here that runs the xb8 thursday night I let quite a few friends drive my car and 1 so far is a forsure selling his mbx and getting the xray others told me they would wait until the end of the season didn't want to change mid stream.. the parts may cost a bit more than other cars but in my experience you always get what you pay for.. may be a coincidence but when letting friend drive car he wrecked into an m car and did a bit of damage to the other car my car kept on ticking may have been luck but in my mind I will always know it is the quality of parts that are on the xray.. so you can look at it well this guy spent 200.00 in upgrades or you can look at it like haven't broke anything yet while the other cars have replaced thier parts at least once... all how you look at it is the glass half full or half empty ? love the car and it is fun to be the only one in the area with one...just my .02

When you guys are talking about that front brace, do you mean this item?: I guess thats a essential hopup for the XB8R buggy aswell. |

Not. I have alu F/R rod F plastic F/R And I'm running plastic both F / R it gives more flex and makes the car more forgiving. Also the tracks around here can get quite bumpy so chassisflex makes the car handle better. |
