the kyosho team did run vega, but now have RB6 so kyosho will want them pushing that. AE team run centro or std B4

Lee with the vega 201 is about the only big name I can think of

with the choice of 4wds out there at the min from kyosho,durango,schumacher and AE the pred has a mountain to climb with any new car...without their price tags

I'm not putting the company down, the quality of the vega is fantastic, but what next????????
I was looking at the centro conversion for my son but by the the time you'd factored in a long wheelbase carbon chassis plus other bits the Vega conversion looked better value for money
