... In Europe most tracks are grass infield and have runoff areas, whereas in other places boards are used which gives harder impacts.
Needless to say we've already made changes where nescessary and the strengthened parts are becoming available.
In addition, in the U.S., as the weather warms up we'll see much more club activity, which means average drivers banging on lots of boards, with lots of broken parts.
There are clearly weak areas in the car; most notably the front steering block, pivot balls, rear shock tower, and a-arm. Two trends are clear from reading this Forum:
1. The car has weak areas, and Serpent is working on continually improving the product.
2. Many observers have reported the same basic observation: The car has a wide sweet spot, and once you get the initial push dialed out, LAP TIMES ARE CONSISTENTLY ONE SECOND BETTER THAN OUR PREVIOUS BEST.
Thanks Serpent, for a great car, and and an attitude that "Improvement is job one".
