Would be willing to try Serpent again, just need to know if they have made the car a little easier to wheel out of the box. Thanks.
Out of box default set up, it's not planted in the rear in either track. It has tons of steering though. To me, default set up didn't work but was not far from optimal setting in either track.
It's a very good car but if you don't want to spend any time on setting up a car, this may not be yours. But I'm sure there are some guys willing to help you at the local track. I get tons of help here from experienced and knowledge people too. It all depends on your willingness, driving skill, fund, time and knowledge on setup. Good luck.
