But both of those buggies are RWD, which limits their drivability in loose conditions -- I mean really loose, like sand or grass, as opposed to a clay track with a layer of dust on it.

Are there any sand-rail buggies with 4WD? I know space is at a premium in such narrow chassis, but that's not an insurmountable problem as far as I'm concerned. I know about the Kyosho Optima, but I already have one of those, and it's still kinda wide due to the transverse battery mounting.
Two vehicles come to mind for your request.

1. Losi Tenacity: 1/10, 4wd, sand rail style buggy, but still has a flat chassis




2. Axial Exo Terra: 1/10, 4wd, sand rail style buggy, not as durable as the Losi but cool design.
