you are correct,i saw the front dogbones and center belt and jumped to conclusions.the front shafts are for one way and braking.

from what i can find so far the chassis kit is $899 u.s.(not sure).
expected for a 1/7 scale.
the rtr is no joke though either but i cant find price/availability.
even if it drives like a sled i have to have this thing,but if serpent makes it i highly doubt it.

Talking

Serpent Cars are top notch!!! I'm just starring at my 950r, I haven't even used it yet. I can't wait it should be the fastest RC I have, but slow compared to my 11.20 street car!!!!

from what i have read i think the rtr is the route ill go.
it comes with a mega 28 and a slew of other goodies which by any other brand would not be in an rtr.for $1500 u.s i think i need to see what it comes with to see if its really worth it.i was going to buy a baja in the spring but since seeing this the thought has left my mind.

It'll be sick fast for sure and definitely going to be a tough car to pilot. It will also be a new class altogether in the 1/8 scale circuit racing if it catches on.
