hi tom.
well said mate. i've had a few 4wd cars but for me to the pred wins hand down.
i have found with the pred you can continue to get quiker and also get more aggressive along the way.
with other cars i.e xxx-4, b-44 i felt they would only allow me to push them so far.
i do get slated for being the only pred driver in my club but i do come-out on top most of the time, cant beat it when you prove em wrong!!!!
