1:18th Scale Cars
XRAY has been continuously growing as a company and have been producing a few cars of the "mini 1:18th scale" type. Since 2005, a number of cars have been released, for both on-road and off-road racing, in both electric and nitro power forms.
The M18 is a shaft-drive 4WD on-road touring car, powered by an electric motor and a battery pack. The car is designed with independent suspension. XRAY then used the main platform to spawn the M18T, 1:18th Scale Offroad Stadium Truck which can be used on rough surfaces and jumped over small jumps. The car is powered by an electric motor which powers a shaft drivetrain to the four wheels. Xray then produced the M18MT, which is a monster truck version of the M18T, with the only differences are larger tires, 4 additional oil-filled shocks and a higher ride height.
After a short while XRAY surprised the RC world with the NT18. The NT18 is the world's first 1:18th scale nitro touring car. It is similar to the M18 with its shaft-driven drivetrain, but is powered by a 0.8cc nitro engine. XRAY again added off-road capabilities in the forms of the NT18T and NT18MT.

Famous quotes containing the words scale and/or cars:
“Every man needs slaves like he needs clean air. To rule is to breathe, is it not? And even the most disenfranchised get to breathe. The lowest on the social scale have their spouses or their children.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
“I think that cars today are almost the exact equivalent of the great Gothic cathedrals: I mean the supreme creation of an era, conceived with passion by unknown artists, and consumed in image if not in usage by a whole population which appropriates them as a purely magical object.”
—Roland Barthes (1915–1980)
