Project Ghetto Speed (Cheap Speed)
well, i decided to create a project in which i can get my bit to go the fastest with out modding it heavily for cheap (under $10). the side note was that it had everything, including the parts, would have to be able to be done by the average person and such parts would have to be able to be returned to "stock."
the car: Bit CharG Fairlady Booster with a 2.2
the mods: KIT car from hotwheels MPH/KHM set from Target for $4
the install: i used the battery and motor but kept my original gears and axles. i ran a dual battery mod using some extra wires laying around and electrical tape (no soldering). i also took apart my charger/tx and used the charging station wired to 2 AA's, again attached with electrical tape.
results: the car is wicked fast. i raced against another bit with a 2.6 and easily beat it. than raced again against the same car but placed a dual battery in it and still beat it.
so there you go, you don't need to spend $$ for speed.
