I only adjusted the center diff to 7k and went up 2 lvls on the springs in front and down 2 lvls in the rear.
It handled the rough better than my mugen and I could take corners faster as well as recover from undershooting jump landings. The proof came in the race results. About 4 other guys I have been racing around the state who had been kicking my ass when I drove the mugen were now eating my dust at this last race. I used to get laped by these guys on 10min mains and now I was doing the lapping! TY Serpent! I'm loving it!
I have just sold my RC8BE. I was looking at the ECO. Sounds like the Serpant is the way to go. Can anyone else share comparison between the RC8BE and the 811BE.
