price 117.360SIT is in slovenian tolars; you must divide that with 240, wich is exchange rate between tolars end euros...
orders were taken on e-mail: [email protected] , infos on [email protected]
i think it is quite cheap...

thanks for your help.
chris
btw the track i run at is very flat, high traction, and very warm to hot summer temps

Anyone else going to make the switch over to the 960 or at least thinking about it? I think this car is going to be great.

I think the 960 is going to be an excellent car. I can't wait to get one built.

The XR8 looks more like the 950R, no better, the MRX4......
The 960 got a different:
- braking system,
- rear anti-roll bars,
- rear suspension, (camber setting)
- throttle servo mounting options,
- price...
- performance.......
and probably a few more things.....

To someone first getting into 1/8, ALL kits look the same! I own a XR8 and am very pleased with its performance, adjustabillity and value! It is a great car for the money, and I like it better than the Evolva I had.
The 960 is developed and produced by the most respected name in the business! I applaud Serpent for keeping the price down a bit on this new car!
Expect Serpent to increase its market share with this new offering.
