Necessary upgrade videos. Of course we are not competing at the level you are mostly bashing, but still. Never owned an X-Ray.

[@joeddejohn]

Thanks Gord. Will need to watch it again to make sure I got everything. GOd bless at XRay.

Nice the tessmans kick ass gonna be tough to beat this year with xray i'll be rooting for you guys

[@brando555555]

Tough break at DNC this year, I was really looking forward to a Tessmann-Maifield duel

[@terryallen3550]

Hi Gord, That's a real smart way to get compression/rebound instead of just one thickness of oil for both. Would love to see a video on the way ty and the racers move around in the air. Like tilting forward, backward and especially tilting left or right possibly with steering and throttle or something, is it ? Thanks for that great mechanical tip Gord !!! :-)

[@van-islediecast4191]

what type of shock oil would you recommend in a xb8e buggy?

[@tonyallen8626]

How hard is it to get the same amount of rebound on both shocks using that method

[@royarsey5429]

Gord..you think that Xray ang MBXR7 has the same concepts?..you know set up wise... they look alike to me..

[@nicolazanetti]

No matter how many times I tried I cannot get the coming back when extended....it just stay.

[@jtrace72]

My XB8'16 does not have bleeder screws.

[@tytessmann5842]

The caps are an option part, # 358054

[@kirkleaman6863]

👍🏻

[@riccardocorazzari1844]

Adding slow rebound (or to be precise, lowering slow rebound -less rebound damping...-) increasing air volume inside the damper should be punished with jail.
