JQ Products ‘THE Car’ unveiled

JQ Products 'THE Car' unveiled

Finally the much hyped and long awaited first release from JQ Products, THE Car, has finally been unveiled. Rather than give us the full low down on the cars features and strengths JQ has decided to explain the ins and outs of THE Car in a 7-part story. “I will explain why it is designed the way it is, why and how I made the decisions that I made, and what I believe I have managed to achieve. Usually new cars are discussed on the internet forums, and no one REALLY knows what the true story is. So I have decide to enlighten you, and elaborate slightly on the normal run of the mill, “no-compromise aircraft grade 7075 chassis for optimum stiffness and cornering stability” and give you some real information.”
