DragonFire Racing Creates New Parts for Can-Am Commander

August 26, 2010 | Written by: admin | { 0 } Comments

The long-anticipated Can-Am Commander hasn’t even been released to dealerships yet and already DragonFire Racing is developing dozens of new products and accessories for this innovative UTV that has the entire industry craning its collective neck for a peek.

Commander-1000XIn fact, we’re one of the few companies to get one of these sensational side-by-sides, and we’ve been hard at work coming up with new products for this vehicle for a while now. This gives us ample time to test and design all of the new Can-Am Commander products before the public gets their hands on it. And we have to admit — we’re having a blast!

The 2011 Can-Am Commander lineup, with five models and two engine options, follows through on its promise to bring cutting-edge design, innovation and a focus on convenience, value and usability. This thing is 39 percent more fuel efficient than its class competitor, has more cockpit storage than any other side-by-side, and boasts one of the most powerful engines in the UTV industry.

But somebody’s got to add all the fancy aftermarket equipment, accessories and bells and whistles, and that somebody might as well be us — DragonFire Racing. We have existing DFR products that can be installed on the new Can-Am, as well as a garage full of new products for Can-Am that are immediately available. And by immediately available, we mean (more…)

New DFR General Lee Doors for the Polaris RZR

August 17, 2010 | Written by: Team Dragonfire | { 0 } Comments

We’ve gone ahead and done it again — today we’re introducing something fun, practical, and new for the Polaris RZR. This time around it’s a set of lightweight doors fittingly named The General Lee after the 1969 Dodge Charger in the long-running Dukes of Hazzard TV series (officially, these unique UTV doors are called the Polaris Ranger RZR Suicide Doors).

Our Polaris RZR doors are sleek and feature a lightweight steel design that can really take a hit. Best yet, you don’t have to make like cousin Bo and Luke Duke and hop over them to get inside, because they aren’t welded shut like the original General Lee. Instead, unlike traditional UTV doors, these have a suicide opening, meaning the DFR Sport General Lee Doors / Polaris Ranger RZR Suicide Doors open from the front.

From a maintenance standpoint, the DFR Sport General Lee doors have easy to remove bullet-style hinges so you can get in and out with ease. And to take them off, simply lift the door up and off with no tools needed at all for disassembly! They even have an adjustable open width for both sides and they’re fully rebuildable.

And you’ll find that putting on these doors on is easier than pullin’ away from Sheriff Coltrane at a red light! The door attaches at two points in the front and rear at the cage bungs and all you need is one of them there socket sets to put them on. A simple task for any good ol’ boy! No need to head down to Cooter’s Garage to get ’em installed, neither!

These doors are offered in a variety of custom colors, and yes, you can get the signature “01” slapped on the sides, if that’s your desire. After all, the General Lee was the fastest ride in Hazzard County. (more…)

Meet Our Team: DragonFire Racing’s Chief of Research & Development, Seth Bredeson

Seth Bredeson, DFR Chief of Research & Development

Seth Bredeson, DFR Chief of Research & Development

According to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, the phrase ‘research and development ‘(also known as R&D), refers to “creative work undertaken on a systematic basis in order to increase the stock of knowledge, including knowledge of man, culture and society, and the use of this stock of knowledge to devise new applications.” Basically, that’s a bunch of mumbo-jumbo for saying that without R&D, companies like ours wouldn’t be able to survive.

Luckily, Seth Bredeson works for DragonFire Racing, where he plays an important role in developing the very products and accessories you’ve come to trust and depend on. Part of our team for a little over a year now, Seth has a keen eye for detail and knows exactly what it take to get a product from design to the showroom floor.

DragonFire Racing: What is the best part of your job?

Seth Bredeson: The best part of my job is being able to work with really talented people who work as a tight nit group to get the job done. I also love the creative freedom DragonFire Racing allows me in the design of new products.

DFR: What did you do for work prior to coming to work for DragonFire Racing?

SB: I built Pro Class drag cars and custom hotrods!

DFR: Do you drive a UTV/ATV? If so what do you drive?

SB: No, I have a jeep, so that’s what I do my trailing in.

DFR: What is your Favorite DFR product?

SB: There a few, actually. The LED light bars, the Baja Crippler wheels, and the RZR doors are all just really cool products.

DFR: What are you reading and watching these days?

SB: I am currently watching the Police Academy movies. Usually though I watch The Office, American Dad, and The Pacific.

DFR: If you could take a week off from work and ride ATV/UTV’s anywhere in the world, where would you go and who would you take with you? (more…)

DFR Releases Polaris RZR, RZR S Performance ECU

August 11, 2010 | Written by: Team Dragonfire | { 0 } Comments

In an ongoing effort to beef up and improve performance and reliability in the Polaris RZR and RZR S, we’ve spent sleepless nights contemplating what effect an increased rpm would have on the RZR’s factory crank.

As a result, we’ve decided to release a pre-programmed race map ignition in conjunction with some other quality products for the Polaris. Our new Performance ECU (engine control unit) is being presented at the same time as our 800cc billet stroker crank and high-performance piston and cam.

By releasing these products in tandem, you can have all the electronic fuel injection (EFI) you’ll ever need. With the security of a new controller, you can modify your stock RZR for more speed. The Polaris RZR, RZR S Performance ECU also allows you to map your own fuel map, timing maps, throttle positioning sensor maps and install any size cc motor (including a full 800cc race motor) on your RZR.

As we trust you can see, the team here at DragonFire Racing went to great lengths to create an ECU that (more…)
