Best 4WD buggy for high traction tight 12 sec laps track

[janisdaubergs]

Hi fellow racers,

If you had to choose best buggy for carpet racing, what would it be?

Here we have XB4 showing best results, but I don't want to go that way.
Last year I tried 22-4 and if on clay I'm first with it, on carpet I was 1-2 sec behind leaders.

Also as I have raced it on clay I decided to get new one for winter seasson carpet racing.
My 2 best options are now Schumacher or Yokomo, as my teammate also thinks of one of those.

As I have read Schumacher would be best choice as it's designed mostly for indoor carpet racing, but Yokomo also is very competitive.

So what would be your selection and why?
Main schumacher/yokomo difference imho is belts vs driveshafts and ball diffs vs gear diffs what is better for high traction carpet?

As I'll be distributing any of selected buggies here also, there won't be problems with part support here as well, so that's not concern.

Main ideas I would want from my new selection:
1. as less tuning must haves as possible, so I wouldn't have to buy tuning parts, that would cost as much as buggy, want it as good from out of the box as possible.
2. as durable/reliable as possible, I have 4 year experience, and I don't crash often, but when I do I want buggy to live with some crashes and also dive-train should be durable;
3. Possibility to use shorty is nice to have as that way I can save up to 60grams by using intellect slim shorty.
4. hex sizes - would be nice to have them in same size as losi, as for 2WD I'll continue to drive my 22 2.0;
5. good pro driver support/setup availability;

I guess I mentioned all that is important to me.
