Default RE: HPI Pro4 for drifting?

See, that's my issue I'm facing. I live in a small town in Indiana, and our local hobby store basically does indoor carpet racing. I brought up the whole drift racing and he was like "what's that?" I'd be the only one drifting, and it would probably be just me doing it in my spare time, but for the most part, the car would be ran on the carpet. Now, just curious, is it safe to say that I'd be spending about $700 to get the Pro4 running?

Another thing, it is possible to make the Sprint faster right? I think HPI mentioned that you could get the Sprint up to like 40 mph with the hop-ups.

I've also been reading on the TC4. Looks ok, and has a 15t motor (?). Price is pretty similar, but I'm not a big fan of the body.

Based upon your opinion, which would you pick based upon my ordeal? Also, I could buy any 190mm body and put over the TC4, correct? Thanks again!
