Congrats on your first win and welcome to the wonderfull world of racing! It's quite a thrill isn't it? As far as investing in batteries is concerned... My oppinion is that if your local club allows Lipo batteries (or is intending on allowing them in the near future), and your car ESC can take them, you should go that way (even if it means buying a new charger). The advantages of Lipo are tremendous (you can often get away with having just 1 pack, with 2 your are definetly set for racing). Plus you can get higher capacity ones (6000 mah+) which will give you longer run times for practicing. It will cost you a bit more than nimh, but in the long run is worth it in my oppinion...

Just my 0.02$
