Back in the hobby after 12 years, need help

Hi everyone. Im new here

Long story short, I am back in the hobby after 12 years of pause because our local track was shot down. Now, a new fresh track is opened in my local town and I would like to get back in the game, however I noticed that my gear is not up to date anymore.

I saw that everyone runs RWD now, I still have awd with CS, the cars that were new and the flagships back then. I have 2 3Racing Sakura D3CS and 2 Eagle Racing OTA R31. I have upgraded them bit by bit back then to be the best gear available on the market. I will upload pics.

Now the questions I have would be:

  1. What RWD chassis is the best nowadays? ( Considering I still have to learn to drive RWD so I dont need the most expensive but I would like something that I can learn and get better with ) I heard about Yokomo RD or MD or MST RMX.

  2. Are there any parts from my old cars that I can still use? Apart from wheels and bodies. I have Tekin ESC + Engine on all of them ( 8.5T if I remember ). I have Spektrum DX4R Pro and Sanwa MT4 as radio commands. I saw that lipo batteries are different too now.

Sorry for any mistakes but I am currently NOT up to date with this hobby anymore.

I really need some tips 🙏

Thanks!
