The Serpent rep there told me Salven just tested it just before the show and wasn't too happy with the handling. I guess that's maybe why they're still working on it.

I seem to remember some time back that HPI had a Formula 1 nitro Rc made from a Proceed.
You can read this post though while I look for it. Apparently Kyosho had one too.

This is still not the one I was looking for but it is an 1/8 scale Formula 1 and it looks like you might be able to purchase it.

kyosho also made an f1 based on the f10 (super size) series...used a gs 11 engine. I have a NIB one, along with the optional chassis, 2 speed, and cooling fan......

Yes they do have one and I saw a thread on it but I'm so fixated on finding that link or image of the formula 1 Proceed that I saw that I didn't post the serpent, so here it is:

Thats a Kyosho F10... was out around/about 98-02. It was out in three versions, formula, sports proto (had this), and Toyota.. something.
Wheels and tires are from a Super10... just about everything else is spicific to the car... probably hard to find parts for. I have seen the 2 speed for it on foreign sites... and overseas eBay sites.
Search for Kyosho F10...see what you find.
