Serpent Cobra SRX8-T nitro truck kit

Following a first teaser image Serpent have fully unveiled their all-new Cobra SRX8-T nitro truck kit. Based off of the SRX8 buggy and compared to its predecessor S811T, the truck variant features a new 3mm 7075-T6 aluminium chassis with matching side pods. The main plate features bent edges to increase strength in the centre of the chassis to prevent bending. The chassis has a tapered angle shape and increased width to improve stability as well as drivability. The SRX8-T also utilises the exclusive fixed engine/gear mesh found exclusively on the SRX line of vehicles. The solid mounting of the engine and diff is absolutely fool proof and owners can still adjust the gear ratio without the need to fiddle around with engine positions. With the choice of 13 and 14 tooth clutch bells, as well as 46, 47, and 48 tooth spur gears give maximum adjustability for every condition.
