JQRacing Black Edition Spec-Q 1/8th nitro buggy

JQRacing have introduced their factory-built Black Edition Spec-Q nitro buggy. The vehicle has the same specifications and features as the Black Edition kit, but instead of packaging the parts in the familiar bags for assembly by the customer, JQRacing build the car at the factory, to the proven August 2017 stock setup. The only thing left for the racer to do is to install an engine and pipe, and the electronics, and paint the pre-cut body. Even the throttle and brake linkages are built and ready to go. The Spec-Q car is intended to be ready to race, so thread lock has been applied, and camber, toe, and droop have been set correctly. The diffs and shocks are pre-built with the correct oils, getting racers on the track quickly.
