Sure, but who's to say it's a copy? I believe the anderson mb4 was around before the duratrax vendetta was. So are they licensed, or copied? Usually the copies look a little different; these look identical.

From watching the video on the site looks like it would keep up with my NEXT. Looks like it would handle very nicely also.

This is the same car as the Vendetta ST so almost any ST part would fit and LRP sells the car it's made my Yokomo.

Duratrax copied the LRP they where out first then duratrax came out so i am thinking that the same place in china makes them for both LRP and Duratrax.

No Duratrax decided that they were going to sell it in the USA because LRP is in Europe and that is where they sell there cars but I'm going to see if I can get one imported here.

This sounds like the most likley... Just like other Nitro Cars they are all built in Japan or somewere over there, like the Trinity NEXT,MST1, and that Internet RC car... Those are a few examples of re-badged cars/trucks.

How expensive it? I know that it's going to be hard to get but I think that it would be worth it.

it was like 300-400 bux.. i just remember i was quickly turned off by the price.. and this was not including shipping,,, actually i dont think the place shipped..

the best thing to do is contact duratax and see if they will be willing to have the nitro vendetta..

but why have a nitro vendetta when the vendetta ST can be made to go much faster..

Duratrax is owned by Hobbico. I think that LRP, and Yokomo is linked to Hobbico. Also AE owns LRP from what I heard.

So why is AE not selling the MB4 truggy just call it the RC18T2. I hope that an American company starts to sell this car.
