Title: New vs Used
Post by: hoosier15 on September 01, 2008, 04:16:47 PM
As a prospective FF team owner, is there a significant advantage held by latest technology chassis vs good used equipment.  I ask this assuming current rules and proper setup.

I have one of the oldest cars in my division and i'm the points leader. On dirt it isn't important how old your car is, just how well it works, but on pavement most people have newer stuff.

yeah I agree. I've heard of some people racing with, what seems like, ancient frames and chassis. you just have to do some slight mods to it took get it to specs.
