Plus vat on top of that price, but still a very good price.

169 pounds probably just for the upgrade of an X10 :bom: they did it before, but I dunno if it's clever to boast around like that |

Interesting concept but I shall not make a single comment until I see pics of the car, £169 is great, just depends on what you 'DONT' get for that money.

PLEASE!
Open letter to TTECH: I owned the predator (orig version) so many years go. It was too low slung and not durable enough for the US track conditions. The comments I am seeing about today's car is that the car handles excellent yet it is still not really tested and designed with the capability to perform on the more vertical and bumpy US tracks. People say it does not have quite enough droop or it still breaks too easily under the abuse of the US verticals. I would LOVE to drive a predator again, but until I see one that really works on US tracks, I cannot justify any amount of money on it. TTECH, if you are out there, keep the US racers in mind. It may not be bad for the balance books too . |

Hi, thanks for your comments. This is quite a common misconception. The Predator looks low because the TOP of the car is very low. The suspension travel is massive and the ideal amount of ground clearance is always obtainable because it can be adjusted to suit your track conditions, and yet always leaves enough suspension travel to give you ideal droop as well. The low look is very important because it is the result of a design which gives you a low centre of gravity for stability, and reduced frontal area for lower aerodynamic drag which makes the car faster. The latest X10 and XRS Predators have class leading durabity and the transmission will now be "Guaranteed" against breakage we are so confident about its strength. We have spent many hours testing the latest Predators on US style tracks. The car is quicker than ever and more than capable of winning top level events in the US just as it did when it won the NORRCA Nationals and Winternational with Brian Kinwald before. Larger volume production is enabling us to bring you a much better price too, and this will be reflected in the latest Predator XRS. Best regards Richard Weatherley TTech Racing |
