From the looks, it kinda resembles a Duratrax Raze. Except the the Raze has the engine on the left side...
Maybe a CEN buggy of some sort? Maybe it is its own buggy?

Not sure about HPI clones, I have to look at some of their products and compare them to the SmartTech. Duratrax though, yes! Have a look at the real DTX Raze and the clone one.

T-Maxx Clone

So yeah, I'd think they clone HPI too.
I'd be willing to bet that you can use the same upgrade parts on both of them.
Same buggy as you have???

RE: master vhx5 nitro buggy 1/10 awd
ya those are all the same i just want to find somebody in the states that would sale replacment parts, basically i have 2 of them i bought for twenty bux at a garage sale, they are both almost brand new but both right side control arms broken, the guy bought them wrecked them then sold them to me at his garage sale, ive got alot of other name brand cars but i would really like to get these going, ive fired both up and the run great. they seem like fun if i can just figure out were to get the few parts i need without ordering them from china. thats why i was trying to find out if they were clones, because then i could just go to the local hobby store and buy the parts for what they were cloned after!!
