JConcepts 1/8th buggy tires

We briefly mentioned the JConcepts report from the ROAR 1/8th Buggy Nats yesterday in our Daily Round up, an event which saw team driver Ryan Maifield take the event TQ, and lead until problems forced him down the order. JConcepts are also reporting in that write up that Ryan was running the companies new Double Dee 1/8th scale buggy tires at that event and from the looks of his performance they appear to be top notch. Available in September, these new tires come in two different threads, Double Dee and Cross Hairs and JC will also release their new Rulux wheel which is available in both white and yellow.

Statement – JConcepts & Associated B44

Announcement - JConcepts and Associated B44

Just as the title says – On July 10, TTR/Associated announced the upcoming release of the new B44. This new vehicle is based on the BJ4 Worlds Edition and was a collaborative effort between TTR/Associated and JConcepts. The B44 was a collaborative project only. JConcepts remains an independent company, and our business will not change as a result of this collaboration. Both Jason and Brad have ties with Associated going back 15+ years. This has led to a close working relationship between Associated and JConcepts on the B44. JConcepts will continue to sell the BJ4 kits, parts and accessories to support new and existing customers. Look for more new and exciting products from JConcepts to fit the B44 and all Team Associated vehicles.
