Well Xray didn't bring many innovations, they basically most of the time copy something that works (since their first car T1 which was copy of Corally) and just give it a bit better fit and finish. So I guess it will be similar to something else really.

About quality and finish, Xray seems to be getting all the cred. And yeah, they're good at it. But I've built around 60 R/C cars, incl. Xray, and I must say that Yokomo is at the top of my fit and finish list. Kyosho, Tamiya and Xray fight over the next spot, but it depends a bit on which kit you choose

But about offroad, when Xray also joins the game, that is really something

I've heard through the grapevine that it's most likely to include a naked chick to assist with the assembly.....
....doesn't mean that's got any greater chance of happening either.

Some information that leaked to me - there should be some more info in March.

Juraj ran Yokomo in Czech republic for few indoor races this winter.

Hudy switched between a Yokomo and Durango... I ask him about a prototype.. no no he said;-) and in the pits he looked at many cars
