The Firebolt DM is a mid-motor mounted chassis that can be tuned for a variety of different track conditions from groomed clay, AstroTurf and carpet to dusty outdoor clay tracks, it has the pedigree to handle them all.

Nothing has been left to chance: the front ball studs lock into aluminium rather than plastic, the toe in and anti-squat plates are made of fibreglass to eliminate the compression often found with plastic parts. the chassis brace includes a fan mount for motor cooling and it can also be adjusted to allow for more or less chassis flex. The list of clever features goes on and on.

The commitment to quality of this buggy is evident from the level of finish on the 7075 aluminium chassis and superb red anodised motor mount, arm mounts and rear bulkhead, the chunky 3.7mm carbon fibre shock towers, spring steel turnbuckles, right down to the oversized rear bearings that capture the CVD pins.
