Serpent 960 & 720 – New optionals

Serpent 960 & 720 - New optionals

Serpent have released some new parts for the Serpent 720 and 960, the first being this brass plate for use in the optional Serpent 720 LCG chassis plates. Made using very hard brass material, this plate provides more weight to the front of the car, helping to remove snap oversteer and allowing the car to corner faster and smoother. In addition to the improved cornering speeds the added weight mounted in the chassis helps prevent grip roll on high traction surfaces. Also new from Serpent for both the 960 and 720 are these thin and therefore super soft front anti-roll bar blades. These new blades have the same hard setting as before but in the softest setting they are much softer providing even more steering and overall they allow a wider range of settings. The end of the shafts have also been changed and now have a new adjusting slot which enables you to easily see the setting of the anti-roll bar.

Much More Sweep tire traction

Much More have released a new range of tire additives, and tire care, for rubber touring car tires under the name Sweep. The range of tire additives are called Z1 and Z2 and as with all tire additives, add more grip when applied and allowed to soak in, while the tire cleaner and refresher does exactly as its name suggests by helping to prepare your tire surface for the additives.
