For rubber tire carpet I think you can get away with a Spec-R S1 or Sakura XI, but if you're racing foam tire carpet you will probably want a stiffer, carbon fiber chassis because you want less chassis flex.

The current batch of TC's are all good in the right hands. I'd say run what you have local support for (parts + setup help) Also, when buying your equipment, support your local hobby shop!
