Re: assembly question
Ooophs... I missed this one.
No worries. Just ask. Wost thing that can happen is we'll direct you to the 710 FAQ that Obi-Mark-Kenobee has compiled !
Look at the plastic ball cup joints carefully. One has an initial diameter that is smaller than the other. The steel balls should go into the larger initial inner hole. They will fit nicely.
If you're in doubt if the quality of the plastic ball cup joint is suspect, then get it as a spare (1660). They come in a pack of 20 pieces which you could use as spares for the rest of the car when the other plastic ball cup joints wear out.

When assembling the rear suspension and snapping the steel balls in the lower track rods, one of them ended out with a good fit and the other with a loose fit… a bit too much for my taste.

Also, if you look in the setup booklet (if you've downloaded the PDF file), you will see on page 19 listing all the shock springs available.
Note that new optional shock springs would be available from Serpent very soon.

some of the serpent drivers are being paid a rather large sum of money to run at a 'bad' setup on the small racedays by all the 'competition'(if you can call them that coz they are so ssslllooowww) so that their entries dont look so bad...

For the PRO Hudy springsteel wheelaxles (front and rear), you can use the Impulse PRO / 705 front wheelaxles (801214). You also need 2 pairs.
Have you checked http://www.rc-mushroom.com? What about http://shop.the-border.nl ?
I know that RCCarinternational will have them.

Also saw from the www.serpent.at site, there is a couple of new bodies coming out:
170022 Stratus FRW + wing
170023 Loletta
I can guess what the Lolita, ehm , I mean Loletta is, but what is this FRW thing?
Cheers, Mark.

The Stratus FRW is a Stratus 2 but made by Frewer. It's very close to the Protoform Stratus in looks and handling. As Protoform stopped making the Stratus tis is an alternative.
