I just finished building it. Everything fit perfect. The diff might be the smoothest diff I have ever built. Cant wait to run it.

I can only take pictures with my phone. If someone wants to post them for me please send me a text to 786-554-6803 and I will send you pictures.

I have to agree on that infanterene. the parts fit perfectly and the diff is the smoothest I've ever felt. All parts feel very rigid and I think this car will perform great. Only thing is, that the upper part from the servo saver unit touches the front bulkhead. But after some simple dremel action this problem is easy to fix with no loss of reliability. Comes with the hobby, so I guess . Looks and feels like a rocket, can't wait to hit the track.
Already any good setups available?

Yo Colon! Bring that serpent to our on-road track in Coral Springs, FL...I'll be getting one soon...It'll be nice to have a few S400 running at Coral Springs, FL track...its nice...they practice weekly and every Sunday. Bunch of guys running TC's in mod and stock. Organized racing will begin in about 2 months, so get practicing!

Some questions about the S400 kit:

1)Parts availability: I live in in the Fort Lauderdale, FL area...will Miami's Serpent USA stock spares for us or is there a shop that will carry the kit and its parts you all recommend?

2)Rear Diff- it resembles the HB Cyclone rear diff and the HB diff has the anoying issue that it got dirty fast due to it not being covered well...is the serpent diff covered?

3) Weight- does anyone know the car weighs ready to go w/ 5 or 6 cell pack?

You shouldnt have any problems getting parts, Serpent USA will be supplying the distributors and Hobby Shops with parts and kits.. The hole kit goes togather real nice with no problems, the shocks are super easy to build.

I will check on the weight and get back to you. As far as the Diffs go I have ran the car 2 times and the diffs still feel good. Cuffs should know more about the diffs tho..
