It's not a new car, it's the XR8 from Yusa. Maybe they have sold the design to another new company.

Could you explain to us what changes you've made to the car other than putting a logo on some of the molds for your plastics ? I would hope to see performance changes other than cosmatic changes . Also, it looks like this car in the photo has been run. I think it would be a good idea if some video footage were taken for us. To me, it's still a XR8, XR80, pro, RTR, etc... ( even with the changes ). Who's gonna be the US distributor ? HappyTime Hobby ( Power Racing Products ) again ? Will the new parts fit on the XR8, XR80 RTR ? Inquiring minds want to know.

Max use to work for Yusa. I believe he's the main designer for this car ( XR8 / XR80 ) and other yusa cars. Most of the cars he designed I believe can be seen on power racing's website. I believe the only car that power racing had that wasn't designed by yusa was the 1/8th scale buggy swift; which was designed and manufactured from Nanda.

And mainly tested by four U.S. drivers here in California. These guys raced club races, some nationals, and 3 of them were sent to Messina Italy for the 1/8th scale worlds by Power Racing. Most of the R & D were being done by these top California drivers.

Can you please explain the changes from the XR-8 to this kit.
I have the XR-8 now, with a huge amount of back-up parts for it.
Will the new parts interchange with the XR-8.

thank you

I am interested in some of the individual parts displayed on the car e.g. rear body mount, clutch side chassis brace.

team novarossi

that is for one front/rear wheelaxle?

I'm curious if you rear wheel axle will stay in one piece, with the power of an 35+ and an italian clutch set-up I put a hugh stress on my driveline...

And who will be distributing this brand here in Europe?

max_chen

I will show you special pro chassis as soon.

max_chen

The light weight wheel axle was just for one piece.
Don't worry,All RAZOR's steel parts had hard process,the some important steels were to make at HRC 60 of steel hardness as like wheel axles,and all RAZOR parts were conform by RoHS directive.
EDAM comapny just is new one,and RAZOR car kit is first product,now no distributor in Europe.it's open,I post some informations and pictures to find out have interested in RAZOR's importor.maybe this way is no good to promo,but it's quick and convenient to discuss with players.
