The Vanquish Products VRD Builders Kit is our entry level competition platform brought to life by some of the industry's most experienced designers in the RC rock crawling segment. Utilizing the VFD Transmission and  F10 straight axles the VRD Builders Kit is a highly competitive, predictable and versatile platform.
