Juraj, first off thank you for taking time to take part in this exclusive Q&A with NeoBuggy, tell us a little a bit about ‘FX’ ?
FX Engines is a private company located in Europe in Trencin, Slovakia. Owned and operated by the Hudy family, the FX Engine company was established in 2006 to develop, design and manufacture RC car engines. FX engines are pure high competition racing engines for model racing cars. Designed with the purpose of bringing you to the winners circle and engineered with a focus on absolute perfection.
Why the name ‘FX’, what does it mean, where does it come from ?
The name and the idea is linked to the level of specialisation on this project – custom machines, unique processes, specially trained staff and selected materials, and tooling just for this project – all made ‘specially‘ for the engines. The name comes out of this philosophy – at times as if by magic the Special Effects would appear, and in the movies shortened to ‘FX‘, we thought this name suited this new venture perfectly – making special effects – FX.
As part of launching the VP Powermaster brand in the UK & Europe, VP have selected to sponsor a driver who can call himself ‘the fastest man in the world’ – 2012 World Championship top qualifier Elliott Boots – a driver that has commanded more and more column inches over the past couple of years.
Picco is proud to announce that their engines are now distributed in Germany by Warda Christian and Felix Heyse who’s responsibilities include the promotion and sales of the engines as well as their racing service.
