Default predator for dunes?

Just wondering how the STOCK pred was on the dunes? I know its probly not as good as the raptor, but what would you rate the STOCK pred on a scales of 1-10?

Gear down to a 13 tooth front sprocket and a stock predator kicks **** in the dunes. I did a pipe, an airbox mod, a K&N filter and a re-jet (about 300$ for all) and now it eats the hills up [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I had my pred at the dunes yesterday,Its completely stock(not for long[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]) anyway it did great i was climbing some pretty steep hills with no problem,power was great no problems.. I even stayed up with my buds 760DS...

You may need to lower the air pressure in the rear tires to around 3lbs and it hooks up fairly well...

I was running the stock razr's they do great in the sand,even better when you lower the tire pressure..You don't get the super traction a paddle would give,but they do quite well for dirt tires...
