Default 4WD for winter
Contemplating a 4WD car for winter racing for when it's wet and horrible, what do people recommend? I'm wanting to stick with my stick LIPOs and the odd set of NIMHs.

I know it's summer (is it with this weather) but just want to get the base research done etc.

Belt, stick pack, and sealed drive-train so no mess to clean up

Interesting as I was considering a ZX5. Cat SX is pushing the boat out money wise.

So the Losi it could be

Think about the CAT S1 edition, lower price but awesome spec.

For stick packs, your options are the CAT or the ZX-5.
