Basically I need some opinions on whether I should stick with this old but fast car or get a new one, and what kind to get. I was leaning to a new Gen-XL or Associated R5.1, but Serpents and BMI cars also seem to be very good. Just looking for thoughts from those more knowledgeable than I.
there is a whole new generation of car coming out. Associated has the inline R5 BK was running Sunday, SpeedMerchant has a REV 7, On Point has AE and Serpent inlines, SM has CRC and X-Ray conversions, BMI has a really radical car in the works. I think it's highly likely CRC will have some kind of update soon. I think you should wait and let the market settle and see what you like.
