Default TC4 vs. Sprint 2

Just got back into cars after 15 years away from it. Wow how things have changed. Seems everything is cheaper now made in China. 6 guys at work bought E10's and are racing during break time and lunch time in the back of our plant on smooth concrete. I gave my E10 to another guy and am looking to get a different car. The Sprint 2 and TC4 fit my budget. Thoughts on which one would be better? I would like to have some adjustability with the suspension as the E10 has none other than springs/oil.

I see some people like the Tamiya stuff but back in the day all of their stuff was entry level. Assosicated and Losi were top dogs, an average Tekin speed control was 200 bucks and the Green Machine motor was king.


Thanks!!

personally I'd say the TC4 is better than the sprint 2. Tamiya has come a long way on road, their TRF415 and 416 are right up there with the TC5R and Hot Bodies Cyclone S.

Would the cyclone S be a better choice?

The cyclone s is a newer chassis than either the sprint 2 or tc4. I meant to say in my first post that the 415 is similar to the cyclone tc not the s.

Personally I'd choose the cyclone s but it really depends on parts support.
