Default Which 2wd car?

So debating buying a modern 2wd buggy been out of the game for a few years so kinda out the loop on who makes the best car / chassis these days.

I am thinking Associated RC10B6.1 Team kit, but I have always had a thing for Schumacher car's and they are releasing the Cougar Laydown soon so that is also pretty tempting.

Am I over looking any better cars? or should I go for one of the above? Car will 99% of the time be driven at Bury. Any help would be much appreciated.

In all honesty, your best bet would be to get down to the next Bury meeting and spend as much time as possible chatting with as many people who'll talk to you. You'll be able to see what's most popular, particularly if you're in need of setup help, spares on the day etc.

All the modern 2wd cars are competitive.

No 4WD because nothing lives up to my original Optima. Until now maybe?...
