Seems Serpent is going to release a monster truck.

Cool...

I doubt it's going to happen, but I'm really hoping that the MT class starts gaining popularity again. I know they handle like a gimpy water buffalo, but racing the MT class was super fun!

Heck, I like having one just for the bashing fun aspect!

This is gonna be awesome if it happens. A high end MT , can't wait to see what serpent has in the works.

It's up on their website now.

I saw it on their site and then found this thread.

Picture?

They have been saying this for a while now I first heard about at the Nierenberg show way back at the beginning of the year. It's still only a prototype as far as I know with the bulk of it being taken from there truggy platform . To be honest I totally forgot all about it until now perhaps it's now passed the prototype stage but seems odd it dosen't show any images yet if it is

Here is a pic that the MRT Shop in Germany is carrying, yet I do not think its correct as this is the same as was shown in Nuernberg in 2014.

I don't see anything wrong with taking essentially a truggy and slapping on big wheels/tires and beefier body/bumpers/cage. It's awesome!

As cheap as 6s 1/8 electronics can be had these days it makes the decision about what truck to go with the hard part...I'd toss this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Arrma-BLX185...cAAOSwA3dYFCda in it since I'd be broke after buying the roller from Serpent lol

Hard for me to imagine RC "monster truck" racing at the pro level - since truggy is pretty much that...except for the soild axle MT crowd that runs sanctioned events worldwide but that is a whole nother ballgame.

Seems like serpent dont know how to put the correct wheel direction thread on their trucks....

Sent a message to Serpent on Facebook asking about the MT RTR and they said that they were going to release it in October.

its october and still no sign of this monster.

I emailed them yesterday directly about this. I'll see what they say.

I say it’s MT season with all these new comers joining and I admit if this truck is priced within the 3xle price of $6-700 I will get one.

See the attached pic. MAYBE by years end now...
