XRAY 350009 XB8 Off-Road Nitro Buggy Kit  [XR-350009]

Introduction to the XRAY 350009 XB8 Race Chassis

The XRAY 350009 XB8 is a 1/8 scale nitro buggy built with race-oriented details that help drivers stay consistent on mixed-surface tracks. The updated chassis design is aimed at reducing dirt intrusion and sharpening handling feedback.

Key Chassis Improvements

The updated chassis gives more room around the front wheels and side guards, increasing stability. A revised rear brace tunes chassis flex, and chamfered front corners keep debris from accumulating. The chassis is compatible with both XB8 and XB8E setups.

Fine-Tuned Suspension Behavior

Longer rear arms combined with a pivot ball suspension layout provide better traction and turn-in. Harder rear lower arms help control side roll in high-temperature conditions, while clearly marked suspension settings speed up trackside adjustments.

Robust Drivetrain and Differentials

The full-time shaft-drive 4WD drivetrain uses large-capacity differentials with adjustable oil to alter handling. HUDY Spring Steel drive shafts and Swiss 7075 T6 aluminium components are used to balance toughness and low mass.

Engine Installation and Clutch Details

A robust high-torque clutch paired with CNC aluminium engine mounts reduces chassis flex during launches and landings. The compact fuel tank with a floating filter helps keep fuel delivery consistent during race stints.

Body Styling and Durability

The aerodynamic body improves stability through fast corners and the lightweight wing mount lowers the centre of gravity. Side guards and the wing are made from impact-resistant composites to hold up in close racing.

For club racers and experienced hobbyists, the XRAY 350009 XB8 provides a durable, tunable platform that performs well in competitive off-road conditions and regular practice sessions.
