Our 3hr enduro is in the books. My first gt8 race ,all I can say is Fun stuff. Car held up awesome for 2hrs 45 minutes, then the lights went out on my 7year old engine while leading with a 5 lap lead and about 15minutes to go.

Love the car and class.

Just want to say THANKS to Ty. Awesome dude even though he used to be a MARINE. Serpent is really lucky to have a team driver that represents the company the way he does! Just might have to trade in my mugen off road vehicles for a SERPENT in the future!

What Lipo Packs are people running in the Cobras? And the maximum capacity that still fits within the box?

What should I expect to change setup wise from the Alpha Soft Tires to Sweep 50's?
