Having recently had my old car returned to me by my mother clearing out the house I was thinking about maybe racing it and I was wondering whether it would be possible to do it vaguely competetively and how far stuff has moved on?

The car is a Tamiya Super Astute which is probably about 20 years old, and may need a new battery/motor/gearbox to race.

What kind of motors are used these days? Have the frequencies moved on? Do we need to bring our own chrystals(?) for the radio frequencies?
