Well after much hard work and experimentation I have successfully mosfet modded a ZipZap SE to have a significant increase in speed and torque as well.
The stock ZZ SE with a red 21.5 motor and blue (12:1) gears trundles along at a pitiful 4.5km/h (about 3mph) which is a real yawn.
I delved in the the driving/switching circuits and came up with a way to triple the driving speed of the car, increase the torque and keep all the proportionality of the control, both in speed and steering.
It now loves the high speed motors and the tall gears.
If you put in a purple 3.4 'turbo' motor, and the red gears (8.25:1) it will now scream along at around 13 km/h (around 8.5 mph) with full speed control in a smooth range from 5 to 13 km/h (3 to 8.5 mph).
It takes the best corners, with the propo control it will turn wide or sharp, but all the time you are in total control.
It is kinda strange to have such good control of these tiny cars at these speeds, but hey I'm not complaining.
I am once again offering to do these mode for people to their cars. In short, you send me your car, I mod it, test it, and send it straight back to you. All the info is on my website, including prices etc, (have a good look around), then email me and we can get things happening from there.

And go they do! I got my SE back from micro_amps today, I gotta say I love it. This is the way they should have went from the start. They run red gears with more torque than a stock one with blue gears. You can actually use the throttle to help steer (kick the back end around). There should be some good drift action with these and the right tire combo. Now that these SE's have good power and speed, I will not be getting any xmods.

Was your PBC not covered in epoxy?
That was one of the reasons I didn't wnt to send it cause the epoxy will limit the future mods on it.

Guys, use your common sense. If he showed us how he did it, then people would do it themselves without him gettin the dough. I even emailed him and asked him for a tutorial and he said something like, "I don't have a tutorial on how it's done, but if you pay me 20 dollars and send the car, I'll do it for you." THINK about what you guys are asking. He's like the owner of a cookie factory, if everyone knows the secret recipe then they'll make it themselves and he'll go outta business. Chances are very slim he'll put up a tutorial.

Not to worry it will be figured out soon enough then there will be tuts on it.
