Nice!
Vega style TRF511 from a distance - I guess this provides an answer to the questions about the Pred's development then...?
How did it go round?

'This car'? or a production model? The car in the photo has very much appears to have 511 wishbones, hubs, castor blocks, shocks, willing to bet diffs and partial drive train, the design is clearly 511 based but there are some obvious differences, guessing its Will's car? Certainly looks 'solid'!! Look forward to seeing one in the flesh :thumbsup:

No this is a prototype with borrowed bits to test test test before finalising
It's not just a straight 511 ripoff

Cross between the old Robitronic tourer and a Tamiya 511. High spur gear and over the motor belts.

It would be a pity if this is going to replace the Pred, I just love some of it's key design features - like the inboard dampers and low profile everything :lol:
Don't get me wrong though, this looks very nice, can we please see more!? :)

It was in action today at Faversham triple crown, it has had some small tweaks from what I could see.
Went very well indeed!
It's a work of art, cannot wait for it to be on sale !
