I love mine! It's 'tricky' to setup because the platform is new and there are fewer setup sheets for one to copy.
Once you get a hang of it though, the car is great.
What worries is a little now is that Team Serpent don't seem to be having much luck with the car on the intl competition level. They just did poorly in Thailand. I worry it will suffer the same fate as the SRX4 (original innovative design) and give way to the 'standard' design like the SDX4.

I owned an Xray T4 prior to this car and it worked very well. Almost set and forget. My first packs on the 4x I could tell there was a definitive difference in handling. The 4x just handled the entry and exit of corners so much better. Why...I'm not sure, but I was more comfortable with the 4x.
Now that a lot of guys are running we are seeing more and more setups. If you are running black CRC carpet just copy one of Paul Ciccerllos/Jeff Dayger setups and you should be good to go
I'd also follow the Facebook page if you use FB. Way more Serpent users active on there.

Do they make protective film anymore for chassis' or maybe a recommended spray to minimize wear/marring from asphalt?
The upper and lower arms, and hubs are all symmetrical/compatible front and rear correct? Now, I haven't looked, but are all the parts symmetrical, from left to right?

Also, is 111oz tq./w a .13 sec. speed servo enough power for this car? I don't need a ton of speed since I seem to overreact.

Which O-Rings and Springs? I'm pretty sure it's "HD Ozite Carpet" something like that. Probably will try asphalt too.

Protective, no ideas.
Yes, everything is symmetric.

Where can I order these parts? I can't find shops with any stock.
Also, which O-Rings, the shock O-Rings?
Did you all see my servo post? Sufficient, mediocre, weak?
