[JHardy]

How about some real car pictures of the Predator EX SC and LM to start off with. :thumbsup:
The drawings look interesting.

[Teamt2c]

They are coming. we had planned on having them before the USOW. We can not control the schedule to have the new forum posted it is based of Rob's busy schedule. Please stay posted.

I will offically post a thread here with the car pics when the scheduled release is obtained.

sorry for any confusion this may have caused. But we are looking at a DEC 8th Release date.

Dec. 8th is a little late for getting a car shook down for the USOW, huh. :tire:

[Teamt2c]

that is True.

[siggy99x]

You got a lot of practice time you will be ok!!

[Teamt2c]

[FossilRC]

The pics on the web site do look great.

looking to get a new car has this car been tested or are you jumping right into production?

[Teamt2c]

looking to get a new car has this car been tested or are you jumping right into production?

testing has occured (protoypes), We would like to get the final testing( pre-production model) done during the USOW and go into production with the final version. normally a 3 step process to assure the cars are correct.

thanks I will keep you updated. and i will post pics of the Pre-production models as soon as i get them all together.

[speed 125]

has the prototype won any races yet and where has it raced? is here any pics of the cars any where we could check them out?

[Teamt2c]

Be patient guys, these models is coming. in the next week or so. As I said we got introduced early because of scheduling of the forum revisions.

[speed 125]

any spy photos yet? i'm so impatient

[Teamt2c]

not just yet! it is getting close.

[microracer25]

How about now? :p

[Teamt2c]

LOL, Guys they are coming. If you seen our work in pan cars you will know that we take extreme pride in the quality of our products. For us it more about making sure the quality cannot be matched as well as the price! that is more important then jumping the gun to get the cars out.

Guys,

As we have been working on getting the parts finalized and manufactured, we have just finished the parts list and pricing.

I was checking out your website and looking at the renderings of your car and reading about your “3 mad scientists locked away in a room.” What makes it different from the other terminator based cars? How long until the sprint cars are ready?

[rspilman]

I've been checking them out also... will you be running at Bumps for the big race, I might make a run down there, and this would give me one more reason:)

[Teamt2c]

To answer that question, Nothing concerning the concept! I have 3 Engineers that were told to find a way to make the proven terminator design more adjustable with less parts, and overall more Affordable.
That is what they did.

What you can do without purchasing extra parts

Offset the center of the car
Offset the front Bulkhead
Change the front to rear weight ratio
Change the Roll center both front an rear without change the track width
Two Track widths Available in the front

All of this is achieved without buying an extra part. Then we worked on making the parts symmetrical to allow lower cost in replacements components. Overall We lowered the average parts price by about 25%. As the Volume picks up we feel we can lower it more.

The Car comes with brand name parts as well as some of our machined parts. If you have seen our pan car stuff you will know that our machining is second to none!
As for the newly designed car, I showed the concept to a few people and most said that it was way too complicated and had way to many adjustments. So time will tell on that car design. Maybe one day we will be able to release that one.

I am not going to sit here and Claim we invented something new, I just will say we looked at the deisgn and did our best to manufacture it in a cost effective manner and applied some common sense to this proven design.

We also wanted to have a terminator car priced to compete with the CW cars. These cars should have a MAP price 360.00 in the hobbyshops and the Profit margins for the hobbyshops to keep the lights on.
