HRP Distribution has just announced today that they have ended its North American distribution agreement with JQ Products, effective immediately. HRP will begin liquidating all current JQ Products inventory until supply is depleted. HRP says, "HRP strives to provide the best possible service to hobby dealers and enthusiasts alike, and will continue to offer the finest R/C products on the market from the most respected brands."

This comes as quite a shock to not only us, but JQ fans across North America as well. Stay tuned as we work to uncover more details of the situation, and what is next for JQ Products in the United States...

[UPDATE 3:25PM]

We have spoken to the man himself, Joseph Quagraine, as he travels back to his homeland after the JQ USA Tour. JQ was on the move and couldn't elaborate much on the topic, but stated the following, "JQ Products will still be available in USA. There is no need to worry."

With that being said, American JQ racers can rest peacefully tonight as this does not appear to be the end of JQ in America.
