Those are 1:10th scale HPI's. I think the models are the RS2 or RS3 not sure though. The electrics are PRO3's most likely almost fully hop up. I think the nitro is a RS4 3 Type SS or RTR if its from HPI also.

it cost them $402.35 for each of those cars, but you don't have to have a fully hopped up one to be able to drift it.

...
that's 1/10 scale and looks similar to the yokomo drift cars that are coming out. It's really just special tires that make it easier to drift. Try looking up "yokomo drift cars" and you can probably see the video. when I get home maybe I'll link the vid.
