However with only 1 dedicated mod foam driver ( Keven Herbert ) you also have to look at the numbers games. As xray and corally both have very large and talented teams at this point.

Most import when selecting a car would be do guys you race with run either of the cars you are looking at getting ? Also what parts are available at the places you are racing at. And finally price comes into play. With the TC5 being cheaper not only in kit price but also parts prices. But in the end i would recommed buying the car that is most popular in the hobby shop parts wall and on the track at the places you race. Especially if you are new to touring cars or rc in general.
