Default JQ Products - THE Car

Details are fairly thin on the ground on this one, as Joseph wants to keep as much of the details covered until the car is ready for release (unlike some other manufacturers who release little snippets and then change them at the last minute!!)

Looks like it gonna be a winner though:

Could be a contender against the likes of Durango, Agama and Serpent?

I like the car, the design and the ideas of the CAR, so I'll buy one for sure. Even if it is just to show my appreciation to JQ's spirit in getting the CAR produced!

The CAR will be hot, if you like it or not, it will be HOT!

I believe http://www.rctech.net/forum/nitro-of...ducts-car.html was the other thread, Is it just me or is the search not working well the last few days? I had to search on Google to find it.

he should either lower the support brace to lower cog or just get rid of that bar and thicken the tower by a few thou's.

Jukka Steenari designed the 8ight i think and the dude who designed the CAR is named Joseph Quagraine.

I dunno we will see what it looks like underneath in august i think.
