I'd have to say this car is on the same level as losi, kyosho or mugen. Ive never ran a serpent buggy.

I would buy the prospeed , I got a serpent MK1 and was disgusted, some parts are strong but the design stinks
the prospeed drives in a very special way, very cool and rotating fine
all guys who have one, make good results first weeks out.. parts fit and assembly are ok
if you like the styling why not ...

I really interested with prospeed. I ran serpent and serpent releasing 2.1 today. Will go for prospeed for additional accessories and much cheaper. The shock is 16mm right

Yes the shocks are 16mm in diameter. So far I did a forward battery mod, difference os the rear sliding out becomes more controllable and predictable. Highly likely im gonna stick to it and set my car further to get the most put of it.
