Now then you said any ideas, How about a shaft and belt driven 4wd two shafts ala losi jrxs conected in the middle with a belt. You can use the slipper from the B4 batteries and motor down the middle servo st side of motor speedo and reciever other side. You will have to use diffs like on the jrxs with longer outdrive on one side. In theory should have good weight distribution (I am no engineer) with all the heavy stuff in the middle. Could be best of both worlds no torque steer on hard acceleration like on a shaft car but with the eficiency of a shaft car. Did a little doodle of this last night and it looks like it could work (it was quiet at work).
