XRAY - Model racing cars

guys, i have just started 1/10 nitro RC for 2months. then i found this NT18 which looks really cute, after watching the video, it makes me wanting to get 1 asap. so here are some questions :

1. how it perform compared to 1/10 nitro touring car?
2. would it be able to outrun 1/10 nitro car on stock engine (or maybe some modified engine like Kawahara, Murnan, Speed, etc.)
3. how long can a fuel tank last per run?
4. is there any modified engine available? does that mean that all NT18 owners have the exactly same engine? can we mod? engine parts like conrod, piston, piston sleeve easy accessible? wats the brand of the engine? can we replace the stock engine?
5. cost of replacement or option parts more expensive than 1/10? which company manufacture option parts? Do they come with option part or we need to change them?
6. how many foam tire manufacturer are there for NT18? are they similar to 1/10 tire in terms of shore, rear and front?
7. wats the current price of NT18
8. Lexan body easily available?
9. better to buy with or without electronics? heard that it comes with Hitec servo, which is not really good. how much are the servo? do they have high speed and high torque servo like we used in 1/10?
10. overall rating in terms of performance, satisfaction and value for money?
11. is there any other manufacturer that offer the same 1/18 nitro touring car?

sorry for asking so many question, as i think i will get this car very soon, so need to seek advise from all those pro NT18 owners.

1. less
2. maybe but do not make a point of it, if you do you have to make a M18 with electric brushless
3. I believe 6 minutes
4. Mod engines in this class are hard to find, you can tune the engine if you know what to do (I know) or take it to a tuner. A new engine is about 100 dollar, with that price you do not want to fix a broken engine
5. 18th scale racing is cheap
6. The tire mounting is the same as the HPI MRS4 so you can purchase foams and rubbers from many brands
7. arround 250 - 300 dollar
8. yep, it is a so called wide body made by protoform and distributed by Xray.
9. The known bugs in the HS81MG is almost disapeared but yes there are better servo's like one from KO but they are also more expensive. For the performance the Hitec are good enough
10. a high funfactor
11. so far I have seen only WWS has an onroad 18th scale nitro car from which I have never seen a production model. In offroad there are many brands with nitro 18th and 16th scale cars.

wow bro, thanks for answering all my doubts.

here's something to clarify before i get it.

1. i read from somewhere tat it says 1 fuel tank can run for 15mins, is it true?
2. so for the hitec servo, u said that the bugs problem has been solved, so which means i can safely get the kit with electronics?
3. rx battery is 4AAA or 5AAA?
4. is it true that the body that came with it cannot be fitted?
