Going Squirly

[galaxy24]

I am debating between 2WD and 4WD. Most of the terrain I will be driving on will be loose dirt (not a hard packed track, but vacant lots). It seems to me that a 2WD nitro truck can be a handful with all the power just being delivered to the rear wheels. I like the speeds which can be accomplished of the 2WD, however, I think that a 4WD would be easier to control/maneuver at high speeds. What do you think?

Thanks

You pretty much covered it. 2WD is quick, but you really need to be on top of the throttle when you're in the loose stuff. 4WD may not be quite as snappy, but you'll have a bit more control.

What rides are you considering?

I was considering the Revo 3.3 or the Jato 3.3

Revo all the way!!

Id like to have a Jato to just to see what kind of speeds that thing does. I have 2 revos and you can't go wrong with them. Pluse at least with a revo you can go up curbs instead of going strait into them lol. Good starter truck.

I've got a 2wd and 4wd truck. The 4wd is a lot more fun. If 4wd slows you down too much, drop in a bigger motor!

Thanks for the information.

yes it is true a 4wd is easy to drive and it does take some skill to drive a 2wd but if you are just going to bash around revo all the way
