Depends on what you want...

Do you want a TC, truck, buggy... etc.

2wd has it's own feel, sometimes I prefer it for bashing. 2wd 1/5 scale gas cars are a blast.

I like 2Wd as well for certain things even if 4wd does handle better.

I gained an appreciation for the skill it takes to properly drive a 2wd car after I got my FG sportsline. I was used to driving the 4x4 MCD rally platform, so when I first got the FG it definitely showed me who's boss.

dazboy, what's your budget? Since you posted in this forum I'm assuming you want an on-road electric.

sorry for the wait for the reply
yes it does have to be 2wd (already have mi3.5 that i race)
it can be anytype but not a truck and must have enough ground clearence for stone chippings on the roads
buget is 0 and up but for a rolling chassis under 100 pounds
thx for the responses -Dazboy
