after seeing what the 720 08 has i am sure serpent will add the same plus more for the 960 08, i am hoping they post it up soon

I'm hearing similar news over here. Kits will ship next week. I also heard there will be a number of upgrade kits ranging from the FULL upgrade to individual sections for present 960 owners. I hear the 960 '08 has a new chassis, front arms, rear arms and body support. As for options, I was planning on pre-buying a few in anticipation of the kit but given how much has changed, looks like it's best to wait. I did hear the options package remains the same as the '07 version but given that Kyosho is keeping the pressure on, I'd expect Serpent will remain competitive.

The Evolva M3

Not a bad kit but when I read the line:

"Throttle servo can be mounted lying down (optional parts required)"

I remember why I switched from Kyosho to Serpent in the first place. Kyosho just seemed to be very option heavy.
