T3 Main Features

Super lightweight Swiss 7075 T6 aluminum rear drive shafts, hard anodized, color-coated and laser-engraved, 38% lighter than standard drive shafts Super-light drive axles with 35% less rotating mass Drivetrain featuring 38T/20T (1.9) pulleys on both EU and US versions Orange-anodized aluminum parts for stylish and distinctive look Dozens of ultra-fine improvements particularly on tolerances, clearances, and material structures Available in two versions to meet specific ROAR, EFRA, and FEMCA regulations: o US Foam-spec ROAR o EU Rubber-spec ROAR, EFRA, FEMCA EU Edition available with 6-cell chassis which allows fitting of both 5- and 6-cell NiMH battery configurations as well as LiPo batteries EU Edition features narrow, ultra-thin 2.0mm top deck for higher grip Reduced sensitivity to changing track conditions, giving super-consistent performance during runs Super-smooth adjustable Swiss 7075 T6 aluminum front and rear ball-differentials with XRAY Labyrinth Dust Covers

 

Centered lay shaft and split bulkheads provide optimum balance thanks to perfect weight distribution of the motor towards centerline, giving quicker left-right transitions Ultra-light bulkheads CNC-machined from premium Swiss 7075 T6 aluminum Motor mount bulkhead features the lowest possible motor position, compatible with stock, modified, and brushless motors Super-light composite front Solid Axle with XRAYs own smart quick-change outdrive system for easy outdrive exchange (EU Edition only); no servicing or replacement of drive shaft blades needed, translates into reduced servicing costs Specially-optimized drive shaft lengths for specific foam- and rubber-tire racing conditions: o US Edition: standard 50mm CVD drive shafts for use with foam tires (generally higher traction than rubber tires); optimum transfer of traction to the wheels o EU Edition: longer 52mm front/rear CVD drive shafts positioned more towards centerline in diff/solid axle outdrives to generate more overall traction and make the car easier to drive on low-traction tracks Servo saver positioned in absolute centerline of the chassis Aluminum center top deck mount specially designed for rubber and foam tires on carpet decreases front suspension traction and eliminates front tire overheating to ensure consistent handling throughout runs

 

Independent front and rear diff height adjustment Long front & rear suspension arms for improved traction and easier handling feature optimized shock mounting positions Suspension arms feature integrated anti-roll bar mounts; rear arms feature three different anti-roll bar mounts for super-fine adjustment of the rear anti-roll bar EU Edition includes both front and rear anti-roll bars (front 1.4mm & rear 1.2mm) C-hubs with large openings for quick and easy assembly/disassembly of the CVDs; prevents collision of CVD with C-hub in serious crashes (compatible for the ECS drive shafts) C-hubs available in standard caster angles (2°, 4° and 6°); available in two hardnesss (EU medium, US hard) Rear uprights with integrated 0° toe-in to prevent suspension geometry change in serious crashes; available in two hardnesss (EU medium, US hard) Steering blocks available in two hardness (EU medium, US - hard) Both front & rear shock towers machined from premium 3.0mm graphite material featuring Quick Roll Center positions and optimized shock absorber positions Front shock tower specially machined for ultra-low weight without compromising strength
