those front tires have lexan discs, the serpent guys were trying them as well. supposedly you get more steering with disc wheels on the front at least.

the laydown servo was always a good design, originally at the track i thought that was a cut top deck but it is certainly entirely new. i think it is worth testing even with a cut evo2 deck if they don't release it, shimos car really had a lot more steering than rrr's previously.

its funny, he has a ton of new parts yet has not done much when it comes to what we have felt to be the major fault in the car. the drivetrain on his car is completely stock although the shaft itself and 2 speed are potentially different.

i talked to toso about the dls system. the way he saw it, some serpent drivers were doing well and some were not so he stayed stock. supposedly it plants the rear of the car and gives more turn-in.

everything about this setup is to get more initial steering basically.
