It's more than just a frame that makes it a winner.it's more to do with setup and driver.predator,chuck jones,Tony at beeline,all make kick ass buggies but they all will only go where the driver can take them.and was the turn key buggy bought by Rick? He sure was missing the buggy and I'd say he's looking if it wasn't him,lol. Chad :mrgreen:

I would agree that the driver/set-up is the biggest reason for how well a buggy does... I believe Predator is no longer building frames though.

They are awesome looking frames, agreed. But they are built for a much heavier vehicle in a roll. By the time they got the weight down to what ours are it would look something like ours. Still might be worth asking.

Now If you were going to build a 2 seater or anything that wasnt limited by a bus tranny for power they would be a better fit. Just not sure how they would do right out of the gate for a lightweight racer without doing a bunch of learning to the layout, weight, balence and strength of what we use at this point.

I agree they more then have the skills. Just saying they might not have the knowledge of how they need set-up, but it can be learned.
