Losi XXXS touring car. As a chassis, with NO shell, it still looked fast, if a little portly on the weight side lol.

I like the AYK photos but for me it has to be the Schumacher Cat XLS with black or chrome wheels. Great shell and better proportions than the SWB.

Tamiya Astute, it looked quicker than an RC10 even if it wasn't.

Default Yokomo 870c
The 870c gets my vote and so does the XLS too

Now I have to admit that even though I am a Kyosho man through and through I did spend 9 years of my life with Predators and even to this day get a warm feeling whenever I pick up an original Pred!

My top 5 would be;

5th :- Tamiya Egress

4th :- Kyosho Lazer ZX5-FS2sp

3rd :- Kyosho Ultima (original rail chassis version)

2nd :-T-Tech Predator (carbon chassis version)

1st :- Kyosho Ultima RB6


I'm sorry for not embedding images but I don't have the understanding / skills to be able to work with the pictures .... hell I can't even get anything out of a fully automatic / auto-focus camera!!!!

Marui Ninja

Wish I still had mine. It was only my second car and I wasn't even in my teens by then - so it didn't last long

Excellent thread idea!

For me, it would have to be:

T-Tech Predator

Cat 2000 95 EC

Tamilya Avante

Love the pred. Sleek look.

Avante for its intricate engineering.

But I did like the gold edition optima...lovely!
