This is the XRAY X1 2016 Luxury 1/10 F1 Chassis Kit. Formula 1 racing is the pinnacle of automotive racing technology where performance and technologies employed challenge the very laws of physics. Inspired by full-scale Formula 1 race cars, XRAY presents the X1 based on XRAY’s European Championship-winning X12 pancar. Sharing many high-performance parts with its smaller cousin, the X1 has incorporated all of the finest details to achieve a state of race car perfection.

XRAY focused its efforts on refining all of the already well-thought-out parts and assemblies to make the new X1 easy to drive, work on, and adjust. Designed in virtual reality using the world's most sophisticated CAD technology, and manufactured using the world's best machining and molding machinery in-house, the X1 has attained a level of top perfection that is second to none.

All parts are purpose-designed and manufactured by XRAY from premium materials including legendary Hudy Spring Steel, premium Swiss 7075 T6 aluminum, high-grade custom-formulated graphite material, and our own blends of composite materials. Everything on the X1 is premium with maximum attention to detail, so all parts fit and work perfectly together.
