Default Best stock electric truck for wheelies

Hi Everyone

I'm an electrical engineering grad student looking for a R/C truck to use for my robot project.

Basically, I need something RTR (I do not want to modify it much or at all), capable of popping a wheelie due to too much torque. This, ofcourse limits the acceleration you can produce from stand-still. In other words, something where if you start from zero to full throttle, it flips up.

What would be the best R/C truck to do this? I imagine something with a high centre of gravity, with lots of torque.

Would the HPI Wheely King RTR be a good candidate?

Thanks in advance,
