Let me put it this way- I am an avid off road racer, b5m and 22-4. I club race once-twice a week and sometimes travel for big events. When a new "version" of a car comes out and everyone dumps the old ones it's typically because parts become unavailable.

So tell me, is this not the case with on road????
xray is a tank, and they are very easy to get parts for, and parts as slow to wear out; if I was to buy used it would probably be an xray. Aside from that I think yokomo and Tamiya both do well with replacement parts for older chassis. The ARC R10 is also a solid choice as well as the associated 6.2 and parts are pretty available on each . .

question is what is your local track. I would honestly lean towards what locals are running there it will make dialing it in a little easier.
