The new Yokomo YZ-2 looks good. I'd like to see one ran in anger as no one over here has ran it properly yet. By all accounts the reports from Japan are very good and they were testing on AstroTurf. It takes saddles down the centre or side by side. Chuck the shocks on the back and stick a ball diff in it I suspect it will be fine on low grip. As they've been testing them like this on clay.

The spec looks to be excellent with virtually nothing additional required apart from a ball diff.

The KF is probably going to be replaced soon so 2nd hand is the best option if you choose one.

The RB6 has been out a while probably due a revamp, there not that popular so trackside spares might be an issue depending where you race.

The FT B5M is probably not far away but there's mixed reviews on the current B5M from people some like them but some hate them.

The Losi 22 2.0 looks good and they're not too expensive with a good spec. They look pretty solid too.

The best bet is try before you buy so you're not stuck with something that doesn't suit you driving style as different cars suit different people.
