Hello, Earlier this year one of my kids rolled her buggy while racing in a gravel parking lot. She was scarred for about ten minutes, then hopped back in and ran through another tank of gas.
First I would like to say these are very safe machines that can be limited to a driver’s skill level.
Tight seat belts, helmet, goggles and riding gloves saved her from being hurt. She did scrap her wrist when she instinctively put her arm out while rolling.
Some where on this forum I read of a person who watched their son break an arm. Yuck it could have been prevented, by netting.
If you have not put Dazon's roll cage safety netting on your buggy please do so. I just received my netting from Nick at Dazon and the cost is minimal!
Below is nicks contact information. There is no part number for the netting so just ask for roll cage netting for your buggy.

James, I'm so glad I bought the Dazon/Baja Motorsport buggy. Dazon has been great to work with, and the product is great. Nick always returns my e-mails and has a great inventory of parts.
We just double the horsepower and lowered the gearing and the performance is amazing!!! I will take footage on our next outing.

P.S. The posting for roll cage netting is discussed more on the general discussion forum. Here is the link and a picture with paddle tires pre-netting.
yeah, they gave me an .pdf file of all the parts to buy for the 250 so if anything goes, i can get anything I need. They sent the anti-vibration kit for free and a couple other parts for nothing. Dazon is doing a great job and the buggies are fairly well built at that

Team Hog, The jump picture was taken after the roll, but it was taken of my younger daughter and you are right they are having a blast. In the background is the other buggy coming around for their turn. I'm still not sure what they are singing but they start singing and laughing about 50 feet before each jump, a total crack up. I have asked what are you singing and the response is "the crashing song” The same response I get when they take a wrong turn and end up in a bush.
These buggies are an awesome way to spend great family time together.
