Built with race days in mind, this Serpent chassis gives competitors a stable starting point for detailed setup work. The configuration emphasises strength, serviceability and predictable handling for extended sessions.
The chassis plate is 5mm 7075 aluminum, selected to provide stiffness while keeping mass down. The design incorporates a wide front opening for easy anti-roll bar access and an under-engine slot to help exhaust heat away from the driveline.
The braking assembly uses spring-loaded plates sliding on polished steel shafts and a ball-bearing cam to ensure even pressure across the pads. Locating the assembly low improves weight distribution and stability when decelerating into corners.
Independent double wishbones enable fine adjustments to camber, caster and toe. The shocks feature self-bleeding and upgraded seals for consistent damping, giving drivers repeatable feedback lap after lap.
With options to alter wheelbase, track width and roll centre, the chassis adapts to tight technical tracks as well as faster venues. These tuning choices let racers optimise grip and balance for prevailing track conditions.
This chassis is aimed at competitors who need a durable, tuneable 1/8 nitro platform that responds predictably to setup changes and track demands.
