Welcome. Not familiar with the ansam but if you look further down the forum there is a section for ansamm and I am sure someone there will be able to help you better.

it is ok for bashing, but racing, you may find it a little hard to keep going.

It isn't very reliable, we had a chap buy one, a regular racer, and on a track, it just wasn't very good at all.

Personally its got to be the B4, its a great car and bits/set-ups are dead easy to get, plus it will be worth something if you decide racing is not for you!
I have seen people trying to sell madrats etc on ebay, but they go for peanuts, a B4 will always be worth a few quid..

+1 for a B4.
Your best bet it to buy one second-hand and then dismantle and rebuild. This way you'll know every component and you'll find it easier to perform maintenance. Again, spares are more easily sought, advice on setup is also in abundance. Any slop can be shimmed out: I find this really helps. Ultimately it will also decrease the acceleration of wear. If you're looking to spend money on anything in particular my advice would be to invest in a good ESC, in my opinion this is the one thing that needs to be reliable and it's also the thing that provides most of the performance. Don't waste your money on shiny things, rather springs and tyres. And just go and have fun racing. Julius.
