Use, Upgrade or Replace?

Use, Upgrade or Replace?
I have some older nitro sedan cars that I got sometime ago that I havn't used. I got them in anticipation of running nitro at my local nitro track. However instead I got to racing electric indoor onroad. So my nitro cars sat at home. Now I'm not talking about silly RTRs, these "were" race quality stuff. Now I am thinking of really getting into nitro onroad after more than a year's "binge" in electric sedan.
So here's what I got:
Kyosho V One RR Evo (not WCE, not RRR) w/ 3d clutch, STS 5-port turbo, Shimo chassis upgrade, graphite top-plate, oneway, Lola body, Skyline one-piece outlaw pipe, floating rear body mount.
G4 C-class w/ MR12, Mugen centax clutch, graphite shock towers, updated steering, oneway, front-universals, Skyline one-piece ROAR legal pipe.
Kyosho V One RR Evo (Stock chassis) w/ 3d clutch, MT12 Turbo,one-way, Negative diff, front universals, Skyline VR12 one-piece pipe.
I also have a well optioned Reflex NT roller. However, when I last checked, these cars aren't worth much to even sell in this forum (Not new enough).
So should I use, upgrade or replace them to be at least competitive at my local nitro track(Crystal Park Raceway)?

I agree...run the G4 with whatever option parts from the G4S you can find that work. It's still a competitive car.
The others have been replaced with the RRR and may not be able to upgrade as much as the G4 will.
