I have to say as a long term Pred driver (something like 8.5/9 years) I was tempted to run one again with the X11. Then I found the sweet spot with the ZX5-FS and now I couldn't think to change!
The Pred is a great car but needs a lot of skill to get the best form it, certainly wouldn't consider it suitable for a beginer. Also if you want to experiment and learn about set-ups the Pred isn't really the platform as there are limited geometry adjustments compared with the ZX5-FS.
It's up to you at the end of the day but all I will say is that after just 2 meetings with his FS working with my set-ups my friend is a total convert and is going quicker than ever (he was running an X-factory X5 before).
Anyway, always willing to help with advice on set-ups / technical issues where I can with any car but for me it's Kyosho all the way!
