Well then, I suggest you pick whatever is most likely to get them racing with you. Generally that is the slower of two options. But also think about what the typical ability level is at your track, and who you might like to race against, who is most likely to join you, etc.
Bruxelles is in Belgium, not UK

My girlfriend will be driving with me, we have been racing together since we started rc. We just were in this club for once and people are very friendly. Most of them use 4wd TC in 17.5, but I'm not so sure it will be safe to race them with the 1/12 scale on such a small track or is it? The track is open all the week and I can get the keys so we already know we will have to drive alone quite often. It's a small facility with only two club evenings per week. This said I'm quite convincing so I've no doubt other guys will soon start to drive 1/12 too. The same happened when we started to convert our nitro cars to electric, we were alone too and some drivers soon started to do the same Funny to see electric is now dominant, it only took two years.
