that I dont know, but I know my standard axle was wearing very quick at the 2 speed side around the bearing and my drilled out shaft was 9gr lighter, so lots of weigt to win here if you want..

Noop, I suppose they will be there in Feb, otherwise JP will take the market I'm afraid.

Im glad to see that all the Serpent guys are taking part in this thread!Welcome to all of them and Congrats to Paolo for the Championship!!!

Thanks Serpentracer1, was a really hard season for us. The 705 was good but the other cars also or maybe better. Thanks god that the 710 is finally ready.

The report about the race will be online tomorrow. I will let you guys know

Looking forward to the report !

well,i just bought a 705 before the 710 was announced....oh well looks i will have a 705 and a 710 kenchoco

Maybe we have start one hihi...
lot of real Hardcore Dutchies on the Best forum
He Rob welcome too, maybe we see Pieter here also.

Hey InitialD and FastHarry................I am glad to see you guys here, after 2 years (after my PRO) of Serpentless.......I know I am ready to go back to the Serpent PIT once again (just sold my NTC3 and made good enough money to cover the 710 itself), and I am so glad that I didn't get myself a 705 (really, I don't see a big different from PRO to 705)........but now, 710 here I come.

About the bootleg Serpent stuff..........HK/CHINA is the king of bootleg.....if you want to get real Serpent items in Mongkok (HK) there are only 2 places, HSC (Mr. Lam) and Wing Jet (Snake King Cheung)......then, you can always go to the HK Serpent Distrubutor - Universal Hobby in Wan Chai............Only these 3 places will sell genuine Serpent items.

Or better yet, order direct from Serpent Europe or Serpent USA.

I received the first batch notice of the 710 is 12-15-2003...........dealer price is the same as 705 (I cannot believe that...that is just too good) but retail price should be $20-30 more then 705

Report is on line: here is the link

Enjoy

Paolo, very nice report, Congrats ! It seems you guys are having a lot of fun down there. I like the flavour of team spirit that you have developed. Looking forward to hear about 2004....

congratulations, Paolo. Well done. good report and excellent success.

When can we expect to get a list of partnumbers for all components and optional parts on the 710? I bet many with me are eager to get a spare parts order set up with the dealers.

Also, if Serpent are shipping December 15, do you use sea or air? If sea, it would be a little late for people that want to build their cars and go to the winternats.... Send them with Expedited air, not too expensive compared to sea shipment, normally about a6-8 day transfer...

Thanks Uwe........hey long time without meeting you, are up for next year WC?

I will try hard and of course I would like to enter the W.C. It depends on my job and if there is a clash with an important race event I am involved because of buzsiness.

But don´t forget: The next W.C. is once again not held just right behind the corner ... but once again far away.

Uwe

DOH!

All this time I have been checking the forum on the 710 products page on mytsn, only to find out the party was elsewhere! This surfaces some sore memories from the past, where I was not invited to my own B-day parties!

Good to see the new color is orange, but I must say ---- EDIT - NIET OVER VOETBAL LULLEN! ---- and there are many who feel the same way!

I thought I wasn't the most ignorant kid on the block, but in the last few hours, reading through this thread, I have discovered that I have a lot to learn. I have encountered tech slang I have yet to comprehend such as "too much wine". (Is that engine technology? I'm guessing it's engine technology... Tell me it's engine technology!) I may just be a bit slow, I may have had too much beer.

Anyway, I should be getting a 710 early December and it can't be soon enough. I really like building these cars and due to my drivers skills, I get to (re)build a lot, so I guess I'm pretty fortunate.

Thanks to all the people at Serpent for giving me something to look forward to!
