This looks awesome, might have to get one, would be great for smaller tracks like the local Hobbytown here.

I personally won't count on anywhere adding the class, I've just wanted a small form factor TC for a while since the sportwerks recoil and xray M18 pro both got discontinued.

I think Mike R, is gonna be stoked. I see some Exotek in this cars future. I for one have found a great car to put under his Stuttgart body! This in RWD is gonna be a blast!

Looks so charming. Am I the only one drooling over this?:D

It’s nice, but holy cow, they went all out on the race technology, I’m guessing that someone somewhere must be racing these competitively, because it’s certainly priced as such.

Anyone notice that they also released a 40th Anniversary RTR version of the S240 ‘21?

One of these days we just need to say "This weekend is Open Mini. Bring your cool cars." That said, the M07 and M08 are full on touring cars.... I have a MG Evo that I want to throw down sometime.

Long time before that could happen

As I have posted in other forums, for the price of the Serpent you can buy a FWD and a 4WD from say...Xpress, and still have money left over.
It's a cool concept, but at the projected price I can't see too many takers.

Isn't the point of m class that it's supposed to be a more affordable entry to racing than tc? That's some crazy pricing.
