Indeed it does, which makes perfect sense once you look up the Qirex history and find that "Quantax" is the model name of the Wipeout 2097 Qirex craft. Sort of like how Nissan makes the Sentra and the Altima. Since the Puma II ship looks so much like the old Qirex, I wrote up a story explaining how the pre-Tigron engineers of the bought-out Qirex staff got back together but one of them disapproved of the Pure version of the Qirex ship, eventually founding her own team based on the 2097 model design using Puma sponsorship money.
