2 stroke
#3
Like Mike said, about 99% of land based RC's today are 2 stroke engines. OS does make some 4 stroke small blocks for touring cars, but the predominant engine is a 2 stroke, .15 to .18 for small block RTR, and usually .26 or .28 for big block RTRs. Most racers run .12's for on-road 1/10th and for 1/8th its .21s.

A 4 stroke is nice, but often can't make enough power because they lose alot of RPM compared to a 2stroke. 2 strokes are also simpler to build becuase they have less moving parts.
