Default SMD appointed distributor for JQ Products

SMD, Jamie Boothes company, announced they are to be the exclusive UK distributors for the upcoming new range from JQproducts. JQproducts is the company started by Joseph Quagraine with backing from Himoto to build a range of accessories and a 1/8th scale buggy for the competition market.




The oople team caught up with Jooseph at the recent neo08 race & we can exclusively reveal that Joseph also hopes to create a 10th off road ELECTRIC buggy at some point - Both SMD and JQ are friends of oople & we wish the best of luck.

Read the story on the Spire Models website. http://www.s-m-d.co.uk/

might be a while, I imagine JQ is hard at work with his new company, but he was serious about it. I think he is attending the Finnish GP at the Vaasa track later this year but will be racing other manufacturers cars at that event.

the main push is to get the 8th car built & thoroughly tested before the Worlds this year with a (hopefull) general release for early 2009
Jo doesn't want the cars sold until he's happy they're right!
there have been cases of new cars rushed out into the market place without decent testing that have bombed badly! Team Magic anyone??

Default Retarded Pineapple

I am. Its no secret. But I get along ok.

Anyway. How can I get hold of some RC Pineapple decals. They are cool, cause I am known around the world for being crazy about pineapple. In Italy I invented a desert in the local restarurant, which is a 1/4 slice of a whole pineapple, with lemon icecream on it. After I had it other people pointed at it and wanted the same (people that were at different tables)

And ever since then I have been known as Pineapple in Italy. When I book a table at the restaurant, they write Pineapple on the reservation card.

Also, My mates bought me a six pack of canned pineapple after I won the Nordics in Norway one year.

So I would like some of them decals man!

lol, more like your hard work Jamie

Hey, if JQ were to eventually make that hoped-for electric buggy - maybe you'd be giving that a whirl, like the good ole days Jimbob

Default Rings and stuff

Well its not my fault some Swedish racers started spreading rumours about the pronunciation of my surname. They are just jealous I guess

Anygays, I dont mind since a punch in the kidney hurts more than a funny name.

Maybe one day Jamie will have to run electric again!

And on that subject, are any of you guys coming over for the VAASA GP at last years electric offroad Euros track. This year I'm going to get some practice in. Not the 0 practice I had last year. Not very smart I tell you.

Well done JQ on getting SMD as your UK distributor! Jamie is one of the most knowledgeable and nicest persons I have met.

Hi Jamie
Maybe you should join Jimmy for the Vaasa GP this summer? I live 5 minutes from the track....
