Its the fact that where is the savings going to come in. Either a spec fuel, engine and tire or something scale racing and bodies all sound nice but at this rate I'll just stick with with TC and WGT..
If you knew anything about 1/8th or 1/10th nitro 4wd, you'd under stand. You don't understand how the 2wd gets 7 maybe 10 minutes on the same 125 cc of fuel that the 4wd is fighting to get 5. 2wd races hard with a $150 motor compared to $500 plus for 4wd. 2wd fronts last about 4 to 5 race weekends while using up old 4wd rears for free, 4wd will us at least 1 set of front and rears in their main.

You need to get out more!
