I'm getting an 8:25:1 gear set with a 3.8 motor and medium tires.
Here are my Ideas, Theories and Concepts, I've always been somewhat of an ideaman and I hope I can help you guys with some cool new mods.

1. LED with Micro On/Off Switch
LED Head and Tail Lights with a Micro On/Off switch next to where the antenna comes out in the back of the car. This has been doen before but it's still cool.
2. Capacitor Boost Theory
What if you added a capacitor between your battery and charger nodes, so that it charged while you charge your battery, it takes a few seconds longer to charge because some of the power goes to the capacitor first, then when your battery is full, you use it as you normally would, then when you hit the boost button, you have it set up to release the capacitor, adding it's energy to the battery's, giving you added power to the motor without installing a second battery.
3. Sticky Tires
I think Sticky Tires would be great, much less turning ability but it might be helpful for steep inclines, or road rage races where it could lose by flipping.
4. Magnetic Field Theory
What if you had a small Electro Magnet controlled by the boost button. When you hit the button, a small mag-field is created that stops all motors within a few inches (including yours most likely).
5. Roll Cage
I thought of this while looking at my fireplace screen, it might be interesting, fun too.
6. Stylish RC Remote
What if you took a Gamecube or PS2 controller and gutted it, then replaced the parts with the inards of your Bit Char-G Remote. Just leave the charge nodes lying limp on the outside, some rewiring might need to be done for the antenna, charge nodes and definetly the control sticks but I'm sure it is possible.
7. Brights
Use mini two-way bulbs for the headlights and a microswitch with ON 1/On 2/Off settings for Bright lights that drain your headlight battery faster but only used for racing in the dark.
8. Police Car
I haven't seen anything about a police car being made which is surprising considering how easy it would be.
9. Panic Button on your Remote
Depending on how fast your car is, it may not stop instantly, I don't know what the specific stop distances are for these cars at what speed but a panic button that locks the engine might be needed for an emergency. To tell the truth I don't think this one is really necessary but who knows.
10. Turn Signals
Might be interesting if you're going for realism. Drilling holes and putting mini orange LED's in attached to the steering mechanism (small electro megnets steer the car from what I hear) would be pretty cool.
11. Side Mirrors and Windshield Wipers
No real purpose at all but hey, if you're going for realism, why not.
12. Hovercraft
I've heard of this being tried, but I'm sure it's possible, I still have the half wrecked body (tragic snow accident, don't ask) of my old big rc one left to use as blueprints.
