I hate truggies (they're goofy looking), but that looks good/well-built.. that buggy is really nice though

and the prices and the "Crowd-pleazer" body on the buggy are great

[Bunsincunsin]

Those arms on the truggy look nice and beefy! And the prices are not all that high.


But, I have never heard about this Vertex brand. Is it new, or a "cheaper" campany?

Here you go more info of the company Team VTX (http://www.teamvtx.com)

I do believe those pics are at Revelation Raceway in Ontario CA! The place where my eyes were opened up to the RC world! It holds a very very special place in my heart. Truggy looks good too. Dont know about performance, but if its at least decent (how can it not be?) then its got a great price point, especially for people new to the hobby.

Garen from the old GS Racing USA is the leader on this company. The buggy and truck feature engines made in Taiwan by a company called GO racing. The vehicles are great values for the price. There will be upgrades down the road. check out www.hobbydepot.com for more info/

[wishingfortlt1]

[ScMini]

[TheSnick]

According to HobbyDepot, the truggy and buggy should have arrived yesterday, hopefully they will be available for purchase very soon.
