Sorry man, you need to build an external charger, or add cells to your dock on the controller. If you are running a dual cell car, you must charge with 4AA's. AAA's may work, but won't last as long. My rule of thumb is multiply the #of cells in your car by 2, and that's how many AA's I use to charge. My 3cell car uses 6 AA's. I use a std bit dock to charge my Zap, by the way. I just grind off the middle square nub that sticks up from the bit dock. The side clips will still hold on to the car. Just use 4AA's for about 1-2 minutes, and you car will run fine.
