Default Been Out for a While, Looking to Get back In

Hey everybody.
I have been out of the game for a few years while I started college and had to spend my money elsewhere. However, I am looking at getting back into the realm of racing at the local club. So a little backstory into what I ran. Everything I did was on dirt, ran 2wd mod buggy, mod SC, and a bunch of nitro stuff. With that said I wasn't great at any of them and I am just looking to have some fun on the weekends.

So what do I want to run: The local club has a really competitive 17.5 2wd buggy class, but its been a few years since I was around, and I have honestly never seen a mid motor buggy in my life. I know that's the carpet game now and the local track is carpet. So what chassis should I look at, what is a solid 17.5 motor and esc combo, and what is a good tx/rx system, and what servo should I look for?

Oh and Id like to stay as cheap as possible while being decently competitive, because I am still in college. Thanks yall.
