VBC Firebolt DM2 2WD mid-motor off-road buggy

Coming soon from VBC Racing is the Firebolt DM2 2WD mid-motor buggy kit. Especially designed for high-grip astroturf and carpet tracks the buggy features a low centre of gravity design with a new single rear chassis strut for more linear flex and roll of the 7075 aluminium chassis. The upper deck and battery mount is made from carbon fibre while the 2.5mm alloy chassis chassis allows to mount saddle, standard, square and shorty packs with the latter being shiftable forth and back in order to improve the chassis balance. Also included are 3.7mm front and rear shock towers, a lightweight motor plate, reinforced idler gear and high-torque ball differential as well as aluminium suspension parts such as lower arm mounts, rear bulkhead, 12mm big bore shock bodies and more. The kit should become available by December.
