In heat 2 on Sunday there were a couple of preds the one that was really quick could pull 3-6 M on me on the flat corners he just struggeld a little with the table top and the small double single.
Driving a pred I think is still the same you drive it like you stole it on the flat stuff but you only give it 80% on the rough stuff !

And back then you had to worry about stripping diffs etc etc ! You used to have 2-3 diffs pre built for each meeting. All that has been sorted now! With the right track and the right hands I dont think much could keep pace with a pred !

" cant belive I just said that But I loved that car just couldnt afford back then to keep running one ! "

and thats having driven most Cats/Yoko/Losi/ etc etc .

Keep at it GUYS !
Bondy i could kiss you LOL
