I looked but I did not see a thread for the Xray Xt8. So if I overlooked it tell me where it is. Until then lets talk XT8. what chall running on your XT8's lets see'um. Are you having any issues. Post'em up I'll know more about mine once I get it together But for now it looks like a really good top level racer. I look forward to putting this thing to the test this up coming race season.

Well they are hard to find, here is a picture of mine while I was putting it togeather.






I purchased this mount when I got the kit. It's nice to be able to remove the engine without disturbing your mesh.

Yes, I ran a alum front brace and the plastic one in the rear, it gives it just the correct amount of flex.

I know the MBX5-T Prospec does. You have to purchase the alum upgrades $$ separate with the Xray.

I found the stock shocks to be not up to Xray standards....

The best thing I did for my Xray XT8 was purchase these Jammin 16mm Super Big Bores

2D I have tried to find the motor mount you have and can not find it. Who has it. I checked both of the links above in your previous post and neither place has it listed.

It's one of those parts that are compatible with the XB8 EC&TQ, so they hide it under buggy hopups.
