Which one would you choose?

[George16]

Kyosho Inferno ST-RR 1/8 Scale Truck ($599)

or

XRAY XT8 - Luxury 1/8 Nitro Off-Road Truggy ($599)

XT8 all the way. I have not owned either, but the xray is a much better made vehcile, and the parts appear to be of better quality. Plus every xray owner raves about the quality...

[magman]

X ray all the way as well!

[DRIFT_BUGGY]

The Kyosho is the truggy to beat at my local track but noone down there drives the xray

[jhautz]

Xray... But the RC8T looks real sweet too.

[TexasSP]

I say Xray because they have the name behind them. I have also always seen that kyosho parts availability is almost nonexistent at best. Plus the Xray is just a beautiful machine.

X ray over Kyosho any day.

Id grab the Strr, Ive had a few kyoshos, well made, good parts availability, and the strr just looks cooler lol. The xray is supposed to be the rolls royce of RC, but parts hard to get. I hear its alot better now with them, but not something I want to deal with waiting 3 months for an aarm. Thats why I went with an 8T lol. Ill take them all though

+1 on the XT8.

[pb4ugo]

XT8 is nice for sure. Nobody can bash Kyosho on quality though, or match their number of world championships in the class. They've been building top quality kits for four times as long as XRay. There is a reason all the knock offs clone Kyosho. Both are more truck than 99% of us can exploit the potential of so it boils down to which has the better support for you locally.

[George16]

So far, 6-3 in favor of the xray.

I got more support from Kyosho mainly because I'm stationed at the Navy base here in Japan. All Japanese LHS's I had been to carry kyosho parts but not Xray. However, I mostly buy my spare parts from Amain.

Or should I wait out for the MBX6T? The Japanese are saying it will come out early next year.

XT8 or RC8T hands down

[Gee]

ST-RR, but I am a bit biased. I got the Kyosho US Sport in a trade for a XXX_NT and have slowly been upgraded it to the ST_RR. It's been an good experience seeing the difference in the options that comes with the strr vs the rtr. Sweet truggies. I'm down to just a couple of minor parts left before I can put the ST-RR sticker on the new shell. Haven't had any problems with parts other then getting out bid. I wouldn't trade it for a XRAY.

I have raced st-r last year and st-rr this year and love it, only broke a few parts but it was my fault I would go with the st-rr parts are easier to get at hobby shops plus it already has big bores if you bought the xt8 you would spend another $100 on upgrading the shocks I have raced the jammin, kyosho, mugen and losi and so far the kyosho has been the best for me I just bought a rc8t(another option) and I am REALLY starting to like it

The K car is very hard to beat

The X2 is a sick truggy, and the best of all them IMO is the RC8T, has by far the most steering, drives the best of all them IMO..
