close ratio gears
Would the close ratio gearing that the new TLD Predator has be any good for the trails or is that more for a drag set-up. Seems to me that alot of shifting in the tight woods might not be a good idea.... but I've never riddin one with that type of gearing so whats the info on them?

yes and no, it comes down to your riding style.
Like my Banshee and Mustang have close ratio trannies, its shift shift shift then around 4th on my mustang the gearing gets taller on the banshee its starts to run longer in 5th.
The idea behind close ratio gearing it to get you up to the top speed ASAP the faster you shift the faster you go.
A simple sprocket change should make for less shifting.
I can't wait to hop on a new pred to see the difference between the standard tranny and the new one.

hhhmmmm...... interesting points. My only concern is that when I went to a pipe and airbox mod on the 03 predator I was hitting the rev limiter really fast... I mean really fast!!! So with a close ratio gearing and a pipe and airbox mod, Im wondering if would be just to rediculous to bear on the trails or evan a drag strip.
