Yellow minispikes all round for 4wd. I'm not sure staggers would be right on a vintage, and I don't just mean for aesthetic reasons either. They don't have the turn in modern cars do. My RC10 also...

No need to book club meets in advance. For a 210 you'll want Schumacher yellow minispkes at the back and cut staggers at the front. I've literally just stopped running a 210 myself so drop by race...

Your batteries will be fine for now, I'd use them till they start to puff up (you'll see) and then replace.
