A quick Pred question
Hi guys, i am getting back into the sport after a very long time away and am thinking long and hard about getting a Pred, i am leaning toward the X10, is this still a viable option, ie performance, spares etc. Also, how "hard" a car is it for a novice to own,thanks for any advice, Chris.

I had an x10 for a while and when it was running it was easily the best 4wd buggy i have driven. The trouble was the parts are brittle and were forever breaking, and all the parts seem to come with "pants down" prices.
If youre just coming back to the hobby then id look elsewhere to be perfectly honest. If you can find a good un and in the right hands the preds are an excellent weapon on track, but be prepared to be constantly looking after it. I prefer to spend more time racing than rebuilding. If i were starting back id probably get a b44- parts are cheap and everywhere, it needs very little setup changes from one track to another and its built very well. Hope this helps |

That's not the case with the X11, it needs exactly the same care as any other race car, less is some cases.
