If people at your club are mostly racing the B44.2 then I would go with that as it will help with setup and spares should you have any breakages.

New isn't necessarily better ... what suits your driving style will always be best.

The Lazer ZX5 FS2-sp is still the car that I find easiest to help people tune to suit them. There is so much scope for adjustment that there WILL be a combination to suit you. It's also easy to drive and near bomb proof when built properly

Going with the crowd is not always the best.
Setups and help is very abundant both here and the suppliers websites
1st thing to ask yourself is, do you want a Shaft Drive or Belt ?
Answer this question narrows the choices down alot.
