Default King Motor Baja ??? onroad

I just got my first 1/5th about 5 months ago. I love it but am looking for a onroad that will not break the bank. Can anyone help? Any sugestions would be great. I have a King Motor NO.001 (HPI lookalike) and am keeping it alive thus far. I have been into Nitro for over 20 years and needed to step up. Let me know some good brands for onroads if you would. Thanks,,,,

For strictly on road use, Id get the Redcat Rally. Its 4wd, shaft driven, and with a proper painted Body, it looks sweet.

Checkout Redractrampageforums.com Theres a Redcat Rally section with lots of information. Also, 5b rear hexes will bolt right on all four corners of the redcat, so you could run any 5b wheel/tire combo you want. If they fit under the body that is.

All wheel drive just works better! My Subaru STi (driven by an overweight 60 year old) easily outpaces equivalent (ie road registered, not extreme mods) 2WD V8s. A model 4WD, if set up properly, should be superior to a 2WD, although some onroad competition bans 4WDs.
