Look at the Tamiya TB-03 then, kit, shaft driven (you can remove the shaft to drive just the rear wheels), about $150 for the kit.

Keep in mind that most shaft driven drive the rear directly with a shaft attached to drive the front. Therefore, remove the shaft and it's rwd only.

Plus the TB-03 has tons of hopups for it.
