It definitely looks like a top shelf kit for sure! Just listening to you unboxing it... carbon, more carbon, nice bit of carbon... seems legit! One of these days I will splurge on a really nice kit like this but I am content watching others for now. My awful driving could never justify one of these so it would be solely for the build experience! Thanks for showing it!
Snap, i got one in 21 and it was wasted on me, i just dont have the mindset to find the ultimate set up, vintage cars are all about having fun. And i just didnt have fun, it was great to drive mind. But hell it was fast. To fast for me 😁 thanks for tuning in 👍
I have the 2023 XB4D and what an amazing kit! Thanks for sharing the 2024 version. You’re right they are so good to build and work on and excellent quality. Had an old 2010 XRAY on-road car too and again such high quality!
Excellent video, I just built my xb4 23 over Christmas, picked it up a couple of months ago for 350 👍 excellent value. I agree really easy to build & makes you realise just how over engineered the Avante is 😂 Only issue I had was exactly the same as you with the turnbuckles, I originally built them using the manual diagrams, had to get the metal rule out👍 Happy new year 🫡
Yeah, i was thinking i had the wrong ball cups, wrong tie rods, looked at the wrong drawing. Nope, the manual aint to scale 😂 i really want to get an avante. It looks way over enginered, but does look insanly cool 😎
I was also distracted a bit by Optimus Prime 😄 not to mention the Kyosho!!! Elf shirt 🤭 The new kit looks to be a serious machine bet it’ll be a lot of fun to build 👍
To be honest, i cant say as only had the 21, but im sure you got more for your money back then. I know its all down to small geo changes and the like. But i would like to think newer is better 👍
Very nice! Xray have some very nice manuals indeed I have been wanting a Yokomo MO 2.0 but they are so expensive and i need to buy more Tamiya and Kyosho in 2024 😔 Happy new year 2024 ☃

Very cool kit. I like that you can see both versions in the manual. Builded it looks really nice.
Mine arrived a couple of weeks ago, looking forward to getting it built when i get home. Thanks for another great video.

They sure are, i loved my 2022 version. And if i dip back into modern next year, it may well be the xray i go for ?

It went together great, but its the speed it goes together. If you ever need to change anything, it will be a quick and easy job for sure 👍
Xray are very good car and easy to build. They are performing well of course 😊 I have some (XB4 '21 XB2 '20 T4 '20 and T1 Evo 2) 😊 Happy New Year 🍾
Happy new year, yeah great cars, but wasted on me 😂 i’ll stick to my vintage racing 👍
I just ordered one today (dirt) amain hobbies 20% off (labor day sale)
Worth getting over the '23 version?

Very nice!
Xray have some very nice manuals indeed
I have been wanting a Yokomo MO 2.0 but they are so expensive and i need to buy more Tamiya and Kyosho in 2024 😔
