I only started racing 2WD last December (only did 4wd before that in the many times I raced). Initial car was a rear motor RB5, I then converted it to a mid. I have since purchased an X2C and found it absolutely brilliant. It has put the fun back into racing. Yes it is cheap and its not a top notch racer like a centro or the vega. But you can put it round the track quickly and improve your skills. It's a forgiving car. It needs minimal set up changes so you can just get on and drive. If you do break anything it's really cheap to fix as well.
That got me going well and I now run the TC02C with the Akula conversion which is going nicely as well. You can get a 2nd hand X2C for around £80-90 and most have some upgrades on already.
