Serpent 988 1/8th nitro on-road kit – Coming soon

During this week’s second round of the 2017 Euro Nitro Series Serpent are showing off their all-new 988 1/8th on-road platform. With only the transmission, shocks, fuel tanks and some minor plastic parts taken over from the previous 977, the new car is pretty much a complete redesign – although a quite traditional one. New to the 988 are the aerodynamic lower a-arms which are solid and can accept different inserts to change the flex characteristics of the arm, which is just one of a number of various flex tuning possibilities in this new car. Along with a modified main chassis to accept the new parts, the car also comes with the newly released Viper Flow front bumper.
