yes, maybe you guys probably guessed... LED lights.... on the Bit Char-G.... It's gonna be a challenge to fit those lights under that small body, but hey, LEDs are fun... i need a challenge... LOL...

I kinda thought about that, use one led for the front, and one for the back. Would be tricky making something to direct the light that way though.

putting lights in the bit are a lot easier than putting them on the mini-z..... it's just a basic connection with a watch battery.... There's a small peice of plastic to slip in between the battery and the contacts to turn it off.... the bit is too small to include a switch....

the battery actually enhances the Bit's performance.... The extra weight gives the wheels more traction therefore the turning radius is tighter with the faster motors... and it has a bit more oversteer... unlike the mini-z sometimes more weight may have some understeer....
