The 2wd buggy class keeps on chugging along. It was all the rage for years, then got slow, and in the last few years it has really taken off again. The light, agile buggies simply work well in numerous conditions.

The latest entry into the class is the Firebolt DM from VBC Racing. The 3D teaser shots show the Firebolt DM features an aluminum chassis, big bore shocks, and is shown in mid-motor configuration. Very little other information has been released on the VBC, but we do know it is scheduled for a Summer release date.

un coup de coeur pour moi O.O

il est magnifique et à l'air bien fini, de plus son prix est fixé à 299$, soit avec la conversion magique, 299€ en Europe...cela le situe dans le haut du panier mais au vue de cette profusion de carbone et de belles pieces alu, je pense que le prix est raisonnable.

j'ai aussi hate de lire les 1ers retours de la machine avant de faire le pas

Dear customer:

All components for the VBC racing Firebolt DM buggy was tested intensively around the world by our engineers and team drivers. But as some customers had commented that on under some particular track condition and/or setting the idler may fail. In order for serve our customers and protect all our reputation, we will send free aluminum idler gears to you. And if you have any inquiry from customers, please help us to send the aluminum gears to them. As of today all new Firebolt DM kits will include 2 x B-02-VBC-6100 idler gears for free inside the kits.

We will start sending replacement gears to our dealers starting next week.

Thank you for your support for VBC racing!

Best regards,

John Fung

Sales Manager
