XRAY RX8E 2026 1/8 On-Road Electric Competition Racing Car Kit

Champion Level 4WD Asphalt R/C Racing Pan Car

Engineered for elite 1/8 on-road electric racing, the XRAY RX8E'26 is packed with precision upgrades — from a flex-optimized chassis and ultra-light drivetrain to refined suspension geometry — delivering next-level speed, stability, and adjustability for serious competitors.

About the RX8E'26

Refined Chassis Dynamics

The XRAY RX8E'26 boasts an all-updated chassis design with optimized flex characteristics and a significantly lowered center of gravity. It features full M4 screw usage for reliable assembly and precise maintenance. Milled chassis cutouts accommodate a laydown servo setup, further improving balance and agility through corners. The updated carbon radio plate supports multiple flex settings for fine-tuned handling on varying track conditions.

Lightweight Drivetrain Efficiency

Every component of the RX8E'26 drivetrain is engineered for minimal rotating mass and maximum strength. From the hard-coated aluminum one-way axle to the ultra-lightweight rear solid axle and pulley adapters, rotational inertia is reduced for quicker throttle response. Ball-bearing belt tensioners across the drivetrain prevent belt skipping and maintain smooth power delivery throughout extended race runs.

Advanced Suspension Geometry

The RX8E'26 features redesigned front and rear suspension layouts that enhance stability and cornering speed. Carbon shock mounts and downstop limiters reduce unsprung mass while providing precision tuning. Updated anti-roll bar systems offer more accurate movement, and integrated suspension settings (I.S.S.) allow complete geometry changes without swapping parts, offering unmatched adjustability for racers

Race-Ready Integration

From a lightweight electronics plate for quick ESC swaps to a multi-battery-compatible radio tray with cable management, every detail in the RX8E'26 supports speed and reliability. The updated motor mount supports a top-mounted fan for improved cooling, while low-profile bulkheads, aluminum servo holders, and optimized body mounts ensure strength, low CG, and consistent performance in high-stakes racing environments.
