I think people shouldn't be too afraid about requiring two 4WDs. In short, I think the differences in design and layout between low- and high-grip 2WDs are bigger than low- and high-grip 4WDs.

Imagine what the astro version might look like: A slipper, hard A-arms, slightly different shock towers, some top deck mods, different kit springs & anti-roll bars and different roll centre settings with the adjustability that's already there...

The differences are not nearly as big as you see with 2WD, and for 2WD there is a wide range of grip where both LCG and HCG gearboxes are both competitive in their own way. If that's the case with 2WD I don't see why this would be different with 4WD. Ask yourself this: Isn't it that you need two 4WDs only as much as you're letting yourself be tempted to?

All in all I think it's really cool that a new Asso 4WD is finally around the corner. It's clearly inspired by other cars out there, but I guess at this time Asso benefits more from having a car with solid performance and familiar design rather than something unique that might not work well.
