The simplicity is what draws me the most. With the nerve issues I've had, working on 2wd is A LOT easier. Only 1 diff and 2 driveshafts, everything is easier to get my hands on for wrenching. And yes, very fast!These 2wd rigs are really growing on me, just the simplicity of them, lightweight and stupid fast!!
I'd say cheaper too but with all the aluminum goodies, prolly not?
I took the time to calculate what I spend on my scratch build and I was surprised. It was $805 for everything except the body and batteries, not counting any tax or shipping fees. Sounds like way too much for a 2wd buggy, but every part was hand picked so that its built the way I want it, totally worth it to me to end up with a completely custom rig.
