I remember FSR bullet series touring car. They had two flavors. Electic bullet and nitro bullet.
I don't see them anymore here in the US but they advertised a lot like 5 years ago when touring car was booming.
I remember the Bullet was pretty good car back in the days but nowdays, it's pretty outdated compared to other cars in these days just like HPI original RS4.

FSR was better known for their fuels than their car kits. I am not sure what happened to them except that they are no longer in business, but for what reasons I don't know. I have a Bullet pro, I bought one when they were first available. It did have some unique features that set it apart from other cars at that time. It was the first Electric TC to have a pivot ball suspension that I know of, very low profile! I liked the car and still have it, but due to it's three belt design it is not as efficient as the cars available today. Team CRC used to carry all the replacement parts for these cars, they probably still have parts left. Although I am not sure of this because I have not called them for parts in years. FSR did introduce revised parts for the car like a new rear shock tower in conjunction with new rear arms for revised shock location to a more upright position, as well as aluminum parts including A-arms, upper arm mounts front and rear, both front and rear bulkheads, Ti pivot balls and Ti layshafts, revised diff halves, etc. All in all it handled well but had a tougher time keeping up in stock class where the belt efficiency really became apparant. I still like the car, I find it unique and different than anything else. It's just too bad that FSR is no more, before they went defunct there were rumors floating around about a new prototype car, I believe it had two belts, but it never came to be.
