The exciting world of 200mm 1:10 GT racing… synonymous with “speed,’ť “precision,’ť and “champions.’ť The ideal class for XRAY to unveil its latest engineering masterpiece: the XRAY X10 “GT version.’ť
Based on the all-new XRAY XII 1:12 pan-car, XRAY Project Manager Martin Hudy created the perfect platform to dominate the new World GT class of 200mm 1:10 pan cars.
Knowing that the X10 would need a versatile design ’” participating in classes with either open-tire rules or spec-tire rules ’” particular attention was paid to the rear end of the car to give it the perfect combination of rear traction, corner speed and steering under any conditions. Well-proven yet “conventional’ť T-bar technology again proved to make for faster and more consistent handling.

T-bar mounting
Two unique T-bar mounting methods allow for two different settings:
• Club race setting − direct mounting of T-bar to chassis without pivotballs gives limited adjustment possibilities (recommended for beginner drivers)
• Pro race setting − pivotball mounting of T-bar to chassis for more advanced adjustment possibilities (recommended for advanced drivers)
The T-bar features two different setscrew positions:
• FRONT HOLES: Effectively lengthens the T-bar, making it easier to drive and smoother but less responsive to driver input
• REAR HOLES: Effectively shortens the T-bar, making it more responsive to driver input.
