Default JConcepts 1/8th Scale Products

I just wanted to start a thread where I could field questions about our 1/8th Scale products. Bodies, Wheels, Tires, Wings, etc.

OK, here's a question:

How come JC wings don't break?

Also, you guys have a body for the Losi 2.0 truggy in the works? I'm curious to see what you guys come up with...

When are all the new tires going to be available?

Nothing on the website, but I keep seeing/hearing about all these 'new' tires that are out/coming out soon.

You can get the new Truggy Cross Hairs and DD's in LPR or as JConcepts calls it "half ups" Sizes now. Not listed on there site but some dealers have them. I have not gotten the new buggy ones yet but will get them soon.

K_B: We spent a long time working on the right material before we released our 1/8th wings. Im glad that the research has paid off for you.

Scott: They should be available near the end of the month. We wanted to make sure everything was right before we released them to the public.

vnmsgt: They actually are available now and are on our website. Are you coming out to the FSORS race this weekend?

Half-Ups Cross Hairs:
3025-00 (yellow compound)
3025-01 (blue compound)

Half-Ups Double Dees:
3024-00 (yellow compound)
3024-01 (blue compound)

It may be a little before Goosebumps are available in Half-Ups size. All of our current buggy tires all fit the 83mm rim.

Bummer, at least you'll get to see one of the bigger state races of the year.

yeah, i tried my first set of jc tires/wheels this weekend at the fsors and i was blown away. excellent traction, very consistent around the track and the wear is second to none (track was a level 10 blue groove for the mains) i don't see myself running anything else for a long time. worth every penny and the gluing was cake too. thanks jconcepts.
