The same brand for both 2wd and 4wd hits home for me. Where i live it is basically AE only, support is ridiculously good for sure... and random losi 22's. Shops stock only 22 parts.. Its all indoors so B4.1's are useless and the losi xx4 is not so easy to get parts quickly for it, so I am stuck. I would love to run the RB6 and Sp but kyosho is very hard to get here and insanely expensive...
So here is hoping to the AE gods that they bring out a mid motored 2wd very soon.
