4wd or 2wd?!
Hi everyone
I'm looking for words of wisdom... I have a losi xx 2wd - vintage it is. I'm either going to upgrade to a current 2wd (sv2 or 210), or go 4wd (associated or new xray). Probably a matter of personal choice admittedly, but was sill hoping for some advice. I like the idea of 4wd as they can be pushed and driven more aggressively, but like the fact 2wd has more people to race against. I have thought keeping my losi 2wd, having a 4wd, and being able to enter either or both. Either way, thank you mr taxman for a tax rebate this month!!! Thanks in advance Sam

Cheaper to run, easier to maintain and a good way to improve driving skills. When youve nailed the 2wd, move up to 4wd, where your driving skills will make driving the 4wd great fun!

To be honest theres no good or bad car, and theres obviously pro/cons for each. I would say though that the 210 is slightly stronger, but the sv2 is more drivable and easier to setup

4wd seems attractive indoors at Counthill, but outside at Goshen there is that much grip that 2wd doesn't really require any more delicate driving.
Also 2wd is 3-4 times more popular......

Out of them two go for the sv2 what I found with the two cars was the 210 needed a 6.5 or even 5.5 to make it quick found the slipper on the 210 pants but the car handles well jumps well and is pretty strong the sv2 is quicker more nimble but jumps crap balance is not that great unless your adding weight everywhere and not as robust but you would be quicker lap for lap. I know alot of lads at bury will disagree only because most run 210s but that does not mean they are that quick with them  I run a 2nd hand x6 cost me 60quid on ebay that thing is a great 2wd best car I have owned and I have had a few 2wds last year

Or get a car that's tough, fast and easy to set up.... The RB6. Granted they are a little pricey but you don't need to buy any optional extra as it come with EVERYTHING. After you've bought the sv2 you need to buy around £60-70 on optional parts ect to get it going well, as they don't run we'll straight out of the box. Or try the yokomo bmax2mr now that looks a class car not sure about how strong or handling but they look good going round a track

Noooo just when you drive it   seriously tho that was the one thing I was disappointed with that it seemed you had to throw tons of power into the drive train to make it feel quick. Maybe it was just the car I had although I did only run it twice as I did not like it that much but I love my dex 410
