What more do you want from one man?
Sort and manufacture 6 types of cars
Example
Note to self
Must sort tomorrow
Stickers / Tooling / jigs/ machining / bodyshells / hardware / bearings / balls / injection mouldings / anodising / plating / printing / tapping / springs / seals / R&d /materials sourcing / testing / sort team drivers / emails / answer phone / update website / packaging / post / etc etc etc etc
Then get slated for doing it
What exactly do you want
Ron ?
What else would you like?
Maybe a team Xtreme weekly you tube video of Lewis say spinning plates , uni cycle slalom or maybe one handed hand stands
The choice is yours! lol
If you open a business, and cannot support the products, that is not our fault it's a 1 man shop.

I'm a small business owner, I started out as a one man show,..invest in a few interns or college kids to help out.. Once I got rio busy and was falling behind I expanded.. Cost a little upfront, but now I'm producing 246% over last year and actually lowered production cost because the sales increased my bulk purchases of materials.

I'm not gonna tell anyone how to run their business but it worked for me.

We want to run the car, that's the crazy part, we want it, we'll even get ob here and beg for help and improvement, but you guys just tell us no and to eat it..

The only company I've eve seen this from...

Been reading this thread for a while now... Where exactly does it say that the X11 isn't supported? Havent seen any discontinued badges across it myself.
ALL spares, kits and parts are kept in stock, majority of X10 parts are all also in stock.

Development of the X11 was never dropped, all sorts were tried, to name a few wider hinge pin blocks, lengthened rear links, different front and rear roll centers, shortened rear wishbones, different hub pick up points, the upright rear shocks.
But its always been at its best exactly how it comes out the box, so yes there potentially could of been an updated kit but it would of been no better than the X11 currently is.

Problems with ordering from the Team Xtreme website are now a issue of the past, all orders are dispatched mostly same day if not the next. You should now even receive a email notification now once your order has been dispatched

If your looking for set up help have a look over on http://www.teamnoidea.com, Martin is always posting his latest findings and set up pages over there.

You beat me to it Will
Well said
The only thing I will add to that is that Kev Lees modded ( upright shocked ) pred was courtesy of team Xtreme , not some home done effort to try and make it work! It worked better in stock trim!
So Ron ( SON )
Would you have preferred to be sold this expensive rear end to go slower?
No of course not
No the pred is not dead
It just works best as it is
Turn everything down a little ( as the car is very reactive as you know ) and watch your consistency and times get better
Hope this helps

Fuck it, I could not be bothered... good luck with it hey.

A business that argues with their customers, who WANT TO GIVE THEM MONEY... and tells them they are wrong and should basically just shutup. on a public forum...... bravo mate, bravo.

Tell that to the other loyal customers that were treated digracefully. Refer to my previous post linking to the-pred.co.uk and other threads on this site. How about telling that to the guys running these cars for years that were treated like dirt, again just reread it all in my previous links.

You are under the illusion it is only me....still.

You cant be serious surely. But... on the other hand, you have done it before so to discredit another forum user is a small victory for you huh?

That is how TX operates?

How about TX issue an apology to all the past people they have burnt?
How about genuine support for this car recommences. Website, updated setup sheets, accurate parts lists, prices, stock and availability of spares readily.
No delays in delivery of parts, a contactable company, a working phone line, answering posts on this website about the predator rather than bypassing it completely and promoting Vega products and "forgetting the loyal fans"..

Mate I could go on all night with your issues, but you already know them. They have been going on since, ill say it again, earlier than 2009. Can you not just admit responsibility and ownership of these issues, others have had?

Or am I dreaming reading these?

Here is my final comment on the matter. Answer this and it will speak volumes... If you don't, or TX don't then that, my friend speaks even louder.


Is the customer wrong?

These questions are not something I can answer as I am nothing to do with team Xtreme
I only tried to help you with your predator problems
I think you do not want to be helped, you just want a row and have personally insulted me
Swearing included
You do not know me or anything about me!
I feel burnt trying to help you!
And to answer your stupid question
No the customer is not allways right
That is why they look/ discuss and communicate on forums Like this one
That's my opinion not team xtremes

If Team Xtreme would come out with a 2WD Predator I'd love to drive it, but from the first day I drove a 2WD (back then I still drove offroad) I didn't feel much for 4WDs anymore...

If I were to drive 4WD though, the first cars to look at for me would be a DEX410 or a Pred (even though I'd probably prefer a belt driven car) - the other cars are just too much alike, always the same basic layout really...

Nothing to do with TX? but you seem to jump in any time someone has a problem? which is often?

A stupid question? and The customer is not always right? That says it for me.... And I hope others read what TX and you are saying.

Cheers

Again, to try and discredit a forum user is the only tool you have right? I dont think the above has anything to do with an issue.

Mate get it through your head, you cannot argue with 4 years of proven complaints and issues... Im not making this up, neither is anyone else.. It is written, plain and simple.. It doesnt get much easier and simpler than that... It is written proof, from oople and other forum members... Why do you keep trying to discredit us all and pass it off as "troublemaking" etc etc..

Are you saying, apart from the customer being wrong, that I and the other forum members are lying and troublemakers.

If you dont represent TX, go away. If you have nothing to do with them, why do you feel the need to respond the way you do? You say you have nothing to do with them, then you have nothing to do with this forum.
