I've been out of the hobby for years now. What kits does everyone race now? I have my older Tamiya cars. I have an FF-01, TA-02 and the newest one is the TL-01 (not really so new). I'd like to get my nephews involved, they're 13 and 15, and they are starting to get into cars. What is the majority of people running on the track? I really like the Tamiya kits because of the ease of assembly and attention to detail but it's been years since I've assembled one so I don't know if they still are the same quality. I'd like to get into it as cheap as possible because I don't know if my nephews would really stay into it.

Other than the US Vintage Trans Am class what other classes are there? The last battery pack I bought was a Dynamite 1700 7cell hump pack for my Traxxas Hawk 2. (I hope I don't show my age with that one!) Do I really need to get into NiMh or the Lipo packs? Also, do people still run AM 75 MHz radios anymore or would I need to upgrade my electronics as well?

Sorry for the long winded post, I just wanted to get as much info I can.

Thanks for all the help.
