Serpent 903018 Viper 989 Competition 1/8 GP Touring  [SER903018]

Race-Oriented Refinement for the Serpent 903018 Viper 989

The Serpent 903018 Viper 989 is a race-oriented 1/8 nitro touring car that refines core design elements for improved on-track behaviour. It combines a heritage layout with targeted updates to help competitive drivers extract lap time.

Narrow Chassis Strategy for Improved Responsiveness

The design uses an ultra-narrow 7075 T6 aluminum chassis that reduces unnecessary bulk while retaining targeted stiffness. This methodology produces a chassis that reacts quickly to steering inputs while remaining forgiving under load.

Heave Control and Vibration Damping

Front and rear heave-damper capability allows separation of roll and heave tuning, giving racers more granular control over weight transfer. A carbon weight bridge with antivibration rubbers helps isolate unwanted oscillation for steadier corner exits.

Ease of Setup and Durable Drivetrain

The Viper 989's modular components enable rapid setup changes and maintenance. The super low inertia two-speed gearbox reduces rotational load for sharper acceleration, and the ventilated brake disc ensures repeatable stopping performance.

Competitive drivers who value tuneability and solid mechanical design will find the Serpent 903018 Viper 989 a capable base for race day setup and continual development.
