Pred x11 motor choice

[styleone]

Just a quick question to gauge general thoughts guys, what turn motor are you all running in your Pred x11? Mine is finished now and I'm looking to get the electrics in shortly. I hear people run lesser powerful turn ratings due to the Preds efficient drive train and lighter gearbox internals?

I'm told no standard 4wd 5.5 and 6.5? apparently some are running 10.5's?

Any thoughts please...buggy will be used mostly indoor carpet at first I think

cheers for any helpful info

A good guide is to run whatever you'd be happy with in your 2wd on any given track. I run 6.5 in both my cars but on a small indoor track might change to a 7.5.

Most people usually run 1 wind hotter in the 4wd compared to the 2wd but with the pred thats not necessary.

Thats what I'm hearing regarding the x11 Kev, Thanks for the feedback mate. I was thinking of dropping a 7.5 in. I run 6.5's normally in my 2wd but just started attending a tight indoor track so I'll set up Pred as advised, cheers Kev, quick and helpful reply as always mate

Well, I really like the look of the new ORCA system....but may end up with SP or Novak

If you go with the orca I'm sure we can sort you out with a good combo package price :-)
