Refine X1 Rear Traction with a Graphite Lower Pod Plate

The XRAY 371149 rear pod lower plate brings a lightweight, stiff base to the X1 chassis. Crafted from 2.0mm graphite, it gives racers a reliable platform that helps maintain consistent handling across multiple runs.

Why Graphite Matters on the Track

Graphite offers a high strength to weight ratio and reduces unwanted chassis flex. The countersunk hole layout keeps the underside smooth, helping the car slice through corners with fewer trim adjustments.

Compatibility and Assembly Notes

This lower plate fits the X1 and should be installed with part #371005 to achieve the intended mounting geometry. Check screw seating and alignment when fitting to prevent uneven stress on the pod.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some XRAY items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Which track surfaces is this plate best suited to?

The stiff 2.0mm graphite works well on high grip and medium grip surfaces where reduced flex gives a more consistent rear end and improved corner exit.

Can I mix this plate with softer rear components for balance changes?

Yes, pairing a firmer graphite plate with softer shocks or different spring rates is a common way to tune balance without changing chassis geometry.

How should I inspect the plate after a crash?

Look for delamination or deep gouges near mounting holes and edges. Replace the plate if you see structural damage that could affect alignment.

Do I need special screws for the countersunk holes?

Use flat head screws sized for the X1 kit and ensure they sit flush; using the standard hardware recommended for the chassis is usually sufficient.
