hi guys can anyone tell me if the new factory team comes with any options as standard i.e anti roll bars /one way ect its just i have heard that it comes with some options (hope so) but if not then its still looks a great car. also whats it like compared to the origanal xray i owned one and it had loads of steering but could never get the back end planted is the new one better in this area i realy cannot make my mind up between the xray and the losi even though the xray looks great and bullet proof thanks in advance for your replies deano

Hi, the new factory look awesome and I havent even raced mine yet, the car comes with a rear differential, and a one way axle up front.

Raced my new FK at aldershot this weekend and it took a little time to setup as the roll centres are a little different to the FOC. But once is was setup it was awesome.
With all the lighweight parts the acceleration is much improved as it top end!
my advice, save the pennies and buy one!

thanks for your replies so far may be i should give you a little more info i will run it outdoors until august at broxtowe mcc until august on take off cs22,s then indoor on carpet at same club on sorex 24,s. well indoors with losi/ shumacher ect other club racers do really well but the old x ray,s seemed to be a little tail happy but as i said turned in realy good i just wondered if the new car has more rear end if not overall grip on carpet mainly because judging from the reaction so far on tarmac it seems awesome thanks deano

If its tail happy on carpet for turning into corners I would just add a bit of toe in on the front maybe, if then its still tail happy coming out of the corners add a little bit of rear toe. I havent raced mine yet but i heard the short rear wishbones are really grippy.

hi john thanks for your reply its seems with the new short wishbones as you mentioned seem to be kicking ass, i eas refering to the origanal xray on my last quote with reference to rear end grip but you have now answered this on the new factory team the more i dig around the more i like what i here the short wishbones do seem to make a big difference so i have ordered one thanks nfor the info though deano
