Newer chassis ??

[ginge]

Is racing getting faster with every new chassis that comes out.
Wanting to buy a 1/10 chassis but dont have the money for a new car.
But alot of drivers have the top of the range kits at the club.
Like Would a schumcher mi4 cx be as good on the track as the new mi5
Is the older chassis still competitive ??
Who still uses a older car and still does well. ??
Thanks
