I am more interested in the new two-speed shaft and the new parts related to that. And also the new pulley ratio that will help acceleration. My 988 accelerated very well, but if this is an improvement, the car will be that much better on small tracks. The new second gear design should be more reliable than the previous one. That will be an advantage because it doesn't require maintenance and parts replacement at short intervals of use. More chassis flex will also help on low to medium bite surfaces and hopefully reduce tire wear. More after this weekend.

Can’t wait to see the follow up picture with parts scattered all over the desk, lol. 
Reminiscing after reading your FB post about our trip 18 years ago. I can't believe its been that long.

Had a chance to run my 989 last Sunday. Only ran 15 or so laps due to rain. But during that time I felt a little more chassis rotation with the same setting that I used on the 988. I really like the design of the parts and entire layout. Shocks are sweet. Easy to work on. Congrats to Michael Salvin and the rest of the Serpent design crew.
