I'll introduce myself - I'm Simon Turner, also known as Marvin. Some of you may know me from Modelworld, where I work part-time.

I'm currently deciding whether to run 2WD or 4WD. I'll explain:

I normally race 1/8 Rallycross, but don't want to do another winter series (it's just too wet + muddy), so am looking at getting 1/10 offroad as well. I was thinking 2WD as it's cheaper, and will help teach me throttle control (over the last 4 years I have run nitro, though since the start of this season I have driven 1/8 Electric, and it's far quicker than the nitro).

So what I was wondering is: I know that you are, for the main, a 4WD club, but how many people turn up with 2WD, or even better, in the winter series that you run, is there a 2WD class? If, of course the numbers are too low, I'll just go 4WD, but I'd like to give 2WD a go, as it's a bit different for me.

Thanks! Hope to get to Faversham soon!

Oh, and PS, what cars do people recommend and why (both 2WD and 4WD), leaving the Durango out of it, as it's just tooooooooooooo pricy for me really, even though I really like the idea of gear diffs, not ball diffs.
