Picked up this Tenth Tech Predator. It was listed as a DTM. How would I/could anyone identify the model? I know there were a few different on road models. Also, would anyone happen to have a manual electronically? Thanks.

I can't answer, but the background reminds me of the Metallica Ride The Lightning album cover. Cool car too.

Congrats -
Yes, it´s a DTM. The other narrow onroad is the lower spec´ed Streetwise.

It's a Predator DTM. The Streetwise was a budget model with plastic shocks and shock mounts. The T1 was the newer model with vertical rear shocks.

Very cool car. I hope you'll give it a try and tell us all about how it runs.

Hi do you still have the tenth technology dtm.? I am a collector of predators. I have two updated to compete with the new touring cars and buggies.. I have a predator X11 buggy and a predator Dtm touring car. Trying to post pictures of them.

Here they are.

Just picked up one of these on eBay and even in it's current state it's a joy to look at and hold. This will get the full teardown and rebuild at some point once I gather all the appropriate parts and electronics.

Couple of quick questions about the car:

-Were there 2 versions of the car with the laydown rear shocks? From the pictures i've seen online there are pictures with the batteries going all down one side, and some with saddle packs in front of the motor. Were these 2 different versions or alternate builds of the same car?
-What's the approximate release year for this car ? This will help when sourcing the period correct motor/battery/electronics/tires.

Thanks for the help, here's a pic of the car (also posted on FB):

Still 5 hours if your willing to take out a second mortgage. Very cool but I’m surprised at the current bid.
