You can do a duel cell mod to make it faster. Just search the forum to find thread on it and things like the muffler mods, and simple wheel mods. I think there are a few on the next 2 pages.

The pipes are possible... i have done them. you can take a clicky pen and use the back side of the pen tip and cut it off to my nice mufflers. this is how mine turned out.

nothing really... that is the end tip of the pen part...the other side is what was cut... i used wire cutters, it flattens the side buti didn't really mind becuase you can see them when you super glue them on.

you use the end part, not the pin point.

I'm with ferreck...I've often wondered if it would be possible to make a zap wheelie. Perhaps with some really wide slicks in back and a somewhat rough driving surface, along with a fast motor and geared for torque of course...Has anyone acheived this? If so I could imagine someone making a wheelie bar mod and a funny car body.
