Seriously all the top brands are just that, top brands. They all can win with the right driver.
TC6 was a great choice for you. If you are not a pro, I would buy the car that the majority have at the track you frequent the most. That will be the best car. Support, help, parts etc is far more important at the club level.
+1 to Keven's ability. Watched him take someone else's car he'd never driven before and went .1 sec a lap faster than he did with his own car that day. And no it wasn't another TC6.2.
A car doesn't make the driver look good, the driver makes the car look good.
Go with what is supported at your track unless you are one of the few who needs no setup help. I run Xray primarily for the setup help I can get at the track. A lot of other capable cars out there. If I didn't have that setup help I might be driving something different still. I can do okay tuning wise, but it always seems to help to have others who are driving the same car give their input.
