T-Fource still has a T-plate, too. My buddy runs a T-Fource and loves it, I could never seem to make it work and stick with the L4. You can't go wrong with either, and so many parts are interchangeable, that parts support shouldn't really be a factor. Maybe go to the local track and see which model is more prevalent. You'll have access to parts and support to set ups through the local racers. Good luck, have fun, and remember, a perfect set-up may take a lot of track time.
