Can someone tell me the fastest motor I can put in my zig zag racer that is the same size as the 380-type motor that comes with it?

It all depends on if you want to use the stock radio board that comes in the boat. If you are staying with the stock set up, you are prety well limited to the stock 380 motors.If you want to go real exotic, any of the small brushless motors will fit right in and will give you way more speed.
The little Jeti motors are good for the money.
Hackers (B20) are the best, but a few more dollars.

Hope that gets you started.

I understand that brushless would be a really awesome way to go, but one thing is in my way. MONEY!!:) I just don't have that kind of cash right now. Any recommendations for like...$20 bucks or less. :)

Get one of Andrews Neo 480's.
It will amaze you!!! A few more than $20.00 but worth every penny.

If you really only have $20.00 to spend, this hobby is not for you! ;)
Just kidding. Have alook at the Graupner Speed 480 Race 7.2v

You can contact Andrew at www.fastelectrics.com
