Has anyone heard of there being an electric conversion for 'the car'?

Or even a re-release but 'THE CAR E' or 'THE E CAR'? hehe

If so, then where did you find out this information, because I would be very interested :)

Would love the car though :)

Never say never but so far there are no official plans for a factory made 8th electric buggy. Also No plans on ever making a truggy or any big dumb truck!

THE 4wd tenth buggy is already in it's second year of prototype testing with some parts almost finalised :)

For now he just wants to stick to what he knows which means very well established & recognised racing classes. Outside the US trucks seem to be a passing fad & so far the take up of electric 8th hasn't been exactly electrifying lol :)

It's one of the problems he has living in Finland. Very long winters meaning no outdoor dirt track racing or even testing. Bit of indoor tenth hits the spot, even a bit of TC. I thought he held his nerve pretty well in that RC vid that went up on Facebook the other week :)
He'll get plenty of dirt action on his annual US&A roadtrip after Christmas tho :)

Developments must be hard. The US do have some pretty awesome tracks would love "The Roadtrip" :P. Suppose its good to learn different classes because it can be inspiring lol.

I want a JQ hat they are nice :wub
