My 1/8 gas powered is 4 wheel drive and for that reason it eats tires. I used 3 sets per race and those are not cheap (50$ a pair) the engines i used on the 1/8 diden,t last more than about 5 hours so you needed a few for a season (400 $ each) The 1/5 scale is like you said a 2 wheel drive and the engine is a 22cc two stroke engine that runs on normal fuel with oil like a moped and will last a long time. You can,t compare them two i think the 1/8 class is the formula one of model racing the 1/5 is more like touringcar class and much cheaper to run.
