my LHS had to order the XT8, and it came in yesterday... i picked it up on my way home from work. the pics are about 6 hours into the build... i've not owned an Xray product before, but their kits are incredible. the fit and finish, design and engineering put into these things would put UE to shame.
oh - and i just put in an order here at the Monster for a chassis plate, LMT motor cover and a couple other small things.
