Vendettas has always been a competition to the RC18s. Looks pretty cool...

Someone should have a shoot-out article between the SC18 and the Vendetta SC.

Jaejw, are you reading this? Looks like your Vendetta got a whole lot more fun!

i will probably get this one since the price point should be way low like the TC and rally Vendetta, with the benefit of full bumper protection, and nice component setup, at least much better than the money pit mini slash that I will have to spend a couple hundred to keep it a good working order

Easy talking bad about a Traxxas product, the TRX mafia will hunt you down!

First you besmirch their quality, and now a traitor?

Been nice knowing you.

looks good! shame it's not the ST width though.


would look awesome with Phat Bodies Blackjack shell! (phatbodies.bigcartel.com)

been running these shells over in the UK for a minute, even had a support class of them at an SC10 meet this month.

but will look even better with the bumpers from the vendetta sc.

Well i did the conversion on my Detta ST to SC, and the only issue i found was the rear bumper is a little narrow and the mud flaps dont line up with the rear wheels, but oh well.

For now im running a slash body which is a big too long, and slash wheels (which i like)... I have a phat bodies blackjack in the mail though...
