Final release of the Predator
The name Predator might remind most of us of that gorgeous movie starring Arnie Schwarzenegger, fighting a creepy alien creature in a deep dungle out in the nowheres.
RC-wise, the Predator was a creation of a small manufactury tenth technology and started life in the early 90’s. It was possibly one of the most unusual rc buggies back then, featuring a «formula 1»-tech suspension with inboard dampers that made the car looking like the only goal to achieve was the lowest COG possible. The first gen Preds of 93-95 had handmoulded carbon chassis, with a own identification number, these are high collectible cars nowadays. The car has been developped, until the Predator X10, which was the last developement stage of T.tech
The car shown here is the final version of the Pred, the X11, which was introduced in 2008. At that time, Tenth technology (or T.Tech) has moved to another company called Team Xtreme, which also produced some aluminum mid motor conversion-sets for Rc buggies. Sadly, the company concentrated on other things than further develloppement of the car and so it happens that the Predator is history.
Thanks for looking
