Go SW2.
Junfac tracer uses the stock tlt tranny and it sucks major, slips all the time.

With the SW2, you can drop in a pede tranny and it will work wonders.

Neither of those are scale chassis.

The SW2 is a comp chassis and the Junfac kits are more like stock upgraded kits.

For a nice scale chassis, Look at Reign Industrie K2-3L at www.reignrc.com

Or the BB-51 chassis from Montana Scale Designs at www.montanascaledesigns.com

And the MFM scale chassis from www.thecrawlerstore.com is also popular for scale builds.

I agree, the Reign is an awesome piece of work. The Montana stuff, too. Those crawlers are sweet.

Opps, I must of mis-read the title.

I say go for the BB-51 chassis.
But if you're going 2.2 comp, get a SW2.
