I hope someone weighs a xb in race trim. Not an out of box weight. Especially if the servos and other things need to replaced or added (killswitch) to get it to RTR race form. Thats going to be its true weight.

Some of the guys were weighing 5B's and T's a few months ago and somebody grabbed my car and weighed it. My partner came down the track laughing his ass off telling me it weighed in at 21 lbs with the tank empty. I didn't see it but I wouldn't doubt if it did weigh that little. This factory early version I have is really really light. I'm not sure how much Redcat added to it but it couldn't be that much.

@demon-speed wise how does this stack up with the mt? I'm not happy with the speed on the mt and would like to know if this is faster and if so if the margin of difference is noticeable

@ camo - that's what I want! A Redcat that can keep up with a Baja - any video of that?
That is going to be awesome! Neck and neck in a straightl line then beat it w/4wd in the turns and on slick conditions!

Will it be run w/lightweight glued tires/wheels or are beadlocks needed?


Was that w/your pulley ssytem?

In all honesty..... I can't see baja being that fast (my opinion) MCD and FG is waht I would say you have to compete with.
