Since 2004 when XRAY released the first 1/8 off-road car, the XRAY XB8 platform has enjoyed great success both on and off the track. Praised by the RC press and media, as well as customers themselves, the XB8 platform has been the recipient of several Car-of-the-Year awards. Along with numerous National titles around the world – including the most prestigious European Champion title – the XB8 has been one of the world’s most successful off-road cars. The mandate of the XRAY Development Team is to pursue perfection and innovation, while constant developing and redefining the “performance envelope.” Through ongoing development and improvement, the XB8 platform evolved into the XBTQ and XB8EC versions, each version bringing improvements and surpassing its predecessor. To bring the XB8 platform to the highest performance level possible, it was time for XRAY R&D to rethink and rework the entire off-road platform concept. To realize the new concept and embrace the new spirit, the XRAY R&D team sought to create a car that would embody the key mission strategies. With this “no compromise” vision and strategy in mind, an all-new platform was conceived; to call the XRAY 808 the “next evolution” of the XB8 would be a massive understatement. Balanced load distribution creates outstanding driving dynamics and excellent track stability, making the car super-easy to drive in any racing condition – no matter if you drive on flat fast track, bumpy technical track, or sky-high jumps – the 808 is the new form and level of performance. Loaded and equipped with premium high-tech materials and engineering throughout – all-new suspension and geometry; improved oversized shocks; optimized and centralized weight balance; all-new drivetrain concept – the 808 is easy to drive and control, making it a top performer under all racing conditions. Imagine overtaking maneuvers that are a thrill thanks to the precision controllability at your disposal… and response so fast and precise that you think your mind is directly connected to the car. Squeeze the throttle for the first time and you will immediately experience what the car’s looks only hint at. ![]() • Alu flywheel with lightweight alu clutch shoes. • New high grade special steel clutchbell featuring over-sized bearings. • All new, world's lightest, most durable CVD driveshafts hand made from famous Hudy Spring Steel • Hardcoated Swiss 7075 T6 wheel axles and wheel nuts • All new adjustable turnbuckles from Hudy Spring Steel • Laser-cut, precision flat-ground ventilated steel brake disks • All-new ultra strong suspension pivot pins • All-new big-bore alu shocks • New lighter high-speed ball-bearings & extra large clutch bearings • High grade graphite shock towers and radio plate • All new suspension arms and all new suspension geometry • Composite suspension holders with preset geometry • Composite steering block with moulded-in steel bushing • Super-smooth, no-slip, high-durability gear differentials (front, center, rear) • Swiss 7075 T6 CNC machined, hardcoated 3mm chassis • Diff outdrives made from Hudy Spring Steel specially ground for maximum precision • To allow direct transfer of power without any kinetic losses, the central drive shafts are directly connected to the pinion gears.
