There's only so much we can say on the progress of the car right now, but suffice it to say that the project is moving rapidly and we expect to make an announcement in the coming weeks - certainly in the next one or two months.' We're now selling shares in the company and we've had an excellent response from interested investors,' Mr Thomas told TMR today. 'On a personal level, I dislike it when a promise is made to announce progress by a particular date and it doesn't come.

With nearly a year between drinks, Thomas said today that the project is making 'excellent progress'. The last time the Joss crew offered any word on the JT1's future was early last year, when it was confirmed that the 373kW V8-powered supercar was nearing its production debut. Of course, JT1 is the codename we've given the test car, and an actual launch name is still being decided.' 'We've been calling it the JT1 for almost a year now, if only to give people something other than 'the Joss Supercar' to latch onto. 'Certainly it is a supercar, and at the time we simply named it 'Joss' because it was our sole focus, but over time the 'Joss Supercar' name was picked up in the media and we felt we should give the test car a codename to better set it apart,' Mr Thomas said. Speaking with TMR today, Joss boss Matt Thomas, a former F1 engineer and supercar veteran, said that the JT1 name came about as a result of the public- and media-adopted 'Joss Supercar' name feeling 'not quite right'. Updates on the progress of the homegrown JT1, known for a long time simply as the 'Joss Supercar', have been few and far between. MICROSOFT and Turn 10 have announced a new downloadable pack for Forza Motorsport 3, at the same time revealing a new codename for the supercar built by Australian outfit Joss, the Joss JT1.
