Hate to say this but unfortunately somebody else offered him a lot higher price on the Pred. Too much that I think it's worth to buy. Damn! I was so close to get a Predator! Well, good luck next time. Thanks anyway for the advice! Some day in the future I'll get a Predator!

For anyone really interested in the wheels - i did look seriously into converting my X10 to run Losi wheels. The fronts are possible, would need some adaptors making up, but is possible with the offset considderations. Rears - no chance!! Car would be far too wide - which is a shame.

Yeah, I've searched on Ebay too but haven't find anything. But anyway my LHS sometimes sell some used Preds for a really nice price. During the year I've seen about 2-3 Preds for sale! Unfortunately I didn't have so much money so I could afford to buy one. Yet...

that is a real bummer man.. dont worry, im sure there are a ton out there somewhere but also just think about saving a little more and buying a fresh new kit that no body has tampered with yet.. i have gotten cars in trades or sales that i end up having to put more money into to get rid of all the slop and play that the parts have developed from use and abuse. its worth it to save the extra and buy a new kit. xrs or x11 they are both really great kits and the xrs is fully upgradable to an x10 or x11 when your budget allows.

OK, I dont think anyone can dispute the fact that there are better cars on the market than the XRS. Even the B44 @ £150 is better in every way. I stand by what i say, i think the bloke can do better than a pred. If they were that good wouldn`t we see top guys using them |

i didnt know that cooper... thought it was the same as the x10... thanks for clearing that up and rcbob... this discussion has been had many times.. the main reason why "all" the "top" drivers dont run one is because they are all sponsored by the likes of associated/ hotbodies etc... nothing to do with the actual car.... just a question out of curiosity... have you driven a pred before? Tom

Tom,
People can move teams at the end of the season though, you had yardy who is one of the top drivers in the country, he moved on, you had northy, he moved on, Why??? I dont think losi are all that interested in 1/10th Off road, i dont even think bloomers in doing the nats this year, im sure if he approached Xtreme they would snap him up, but the fact is the drivers dont. And the X11 isn`t a new car yardy ran variations of it early last year and Northy had one for southport National so people could see its potential, the truth is they believe other cars have more. Not having a go mate but i do think some of the kids on this section of the forum have there heads buried in the sand |

They can do there own thing and nobody is stopping them, to be honest nobody has even taken the pee out the car for a while its just friendly banter, i got the pee taken out of the aero for its springs. But i laughed and came back with a response about there car. Its just fun |
