I'm looking to possibly upgrade from my 2001 GRT. It's a good car, just OLD. I run primarily on a very small 1/4 (might actually be between 1/4 and 1/5) track that is usually either tacky or wet slick in the heats and gets very slicked off through the middle in the features. It's almost always a two groove track with one groove right around the very bottom and one right around the very top. (Races are usually won in both grooves in various classes from week to week). I'm much more of a bottom feeder and a "type A" driver (I like to drive the car straighter and be smooth on the throttle). My local motor rules are open but I currently run a 602 and plan to upgrade to a 604. Crates consistently do as well or better than open motors on this track, especially during the feature. My question is, what are some good chassis options that tend to do well in the situations that I've described? Financially I'd like to stay in about a 2010-2013 year model from what I can tell based on classified listings. I'm kind of interested in the blue-gray rockets. Does anyone have any experience with them in similar situations? I'm open to about anything, as long as it's a "mainstream" chassis with good parts availability and support. Hopefully I've provided enough info that some of you guys can give me some good input. I look forward to hearing some experiences/opinions. Thanks in advance for your time.
