Talking 'THE CAR' By JQ - Electric Conversion? or E release?
Has anyone heard of there being an electric conversion for 'the car'?

Or even a re-release but 'THE CAR E' or 'THE E CAR'? hehe

If so, then where did you find out this information, because I would be very interested

Never say never but so far there are no official plans for a factory made 8th electric buggy. Also No plans on ever making a truggy or any big dumb truck!

THE 4wd tenth buggy is already in it's second year of prototype testing with some parts almost finalised

Talking
For now he just wants to stick to what he knows which means very well established & recognised racing classes. Outside the US trucks seem to be a passing fad & so far the take up of electric 8th hasn't been exactly electrifying lol

It's one of the problems he has living in Finland. Very long winters meaning no outdoor dirt track racing or even testing. Bit of indoor tenth hits the spot, even a bit of TC. I thought he held his nerve pretty well in that RC vid that went up on Facebook the other week
He'll get plenty of dirt action on his annual US&A roadtrip after Christmas tho

Developments must be hard. The US do have some pretty awesome tracks would love "The Roadtrip" :P. Suppose its good to learn different classes because it can be inspiring lol.

I want a JQ hat they are nice
