The main reason I sent it away was engine access. It's impossible to remove the engine without moving the brake bracket or the radio plate. You know what it takes to get to the diffs.....
Four 3mm BH screws, one e clip plus one grub screw in the front and Four 3mm BH screws plus one grub screw on the brake pulley on the rear to change the belts.
Serpent did their homework and have created a true racers dream car. Don't wait!
Tell Ron to have yours by the register so you can start building it!

I think,for once in my life,I'm going to wait for the company to get the bugs out of a car before I buy it....Maybe the clutch and servo stuff is not a big issue to some,but I've been down the "first customer on the bandwagon route'' route before,esp with Serpent....I'll wait till I see the car run...and how well it holds up..For 2 years worth of testing,this car shouldn't have centax and servo issues(and whatever else is going to develop)...Just my thoughts,nothing else...
