Default Vega or Centro?

Hi

Does anyone have any views / opinions on the best conversion kit for a B4/B4.1? Vega or Centro?

Centro it's a fantastic car.
I had the tamiya vega which is an amazing car, but if your just looking at a convertion for the b4 i think the centro is your best bet.

Great! Thanks for that. I liked the look of the vega but could not find many reviews. It looks like most top racers are opting for the Centro, which is a good indicator!

Love my centro!!! Just wants you to push and push on track...it loves it

But I do have a lot of time for the Vega too...looks beautifully made.

My only negative thought to the vega is the support...I don't have any personal experience of it from the Vega side, but there's a bigger team behind the centro...and more drivers running them, so more info and support around tackside.

Both will be lovely...pick one and enjoy!
