Xpress XQ10 mid-motor touring car – Coming soon

Coming soon from Xpress is their new XQ10 mid-motor 4WD touring car. In development for some time now, the vehicle builds on the proven XQ1, however split bulkheads and minor changes to the suspension geometry in combination with a pure mid-motor design make for a more neutral handling car that is suitable for a wider range of track conditions thanks to increased overall traction. New features include an adjustable top deck with flex inserts, the car utilises strong plastic parts which use 3.0mm suspension pins on the outside and inside hinge for less play and a more rigid construction, and new material X-rings for the shocks and differential make for smoother operation. Other features include a redesigned steering rack for a more linear and smooth steering reaction, a built-in rear belt tensioner in the motor mount, a lowered bumper foam for the use with modern touring car bodies, and bearing-supported anti-roll bars ensure smoother suspension operation. The kit is rounded out by lowered shocks for an overall lower centre of gravity. The kit is set for a release this February.
