We started our trip to Gubbio on Sunday at 1 p.m.
Jirka Hassler from Serpent Europe, who was kind enough to be my mechanic for the EC, picked me up and we began the 700 km trip.
We finally arrived early Sunday morning and a lot of work was waiting for us already. Italian Serpent driver Giordano Agostinelli had not received his 733 yet and in a team effort, involving the Baumgarten and Gruber families, we managed to get his car build that day.
I was really lucky, that I had received my kit earlier and my Dad was able to build it in the week before the race.
On Monday morning at 9 a.m. controlled...
EC 1/10: friday part 2 (24/07/2009)

At the end of the 2 runs, its young gun Kyle Bransson ( age 15 if I am right) taking Serpent 733 into the top 10, the time from his 1st heat.
His team-mates all had their share of misfortune. Green touched curb and broke a wheel, Salven could only do a few laps, Mazzeo same, Groskamp working on engine/mixture, after a very fast 1st heat, but then DQ'ed from 2nd place due to body being 2mm too low.
So work to do for tomorrow. Speed is there, it just needs to all mix the right way. The 3rd qualifier in the morning, when its cooler, could be decisive.
And then the 4th and last heat to top...

Groskamp tops free practise twice in a row and records the fatest practise laptime of the day with 16.044
Its a very close affair, under extremely hot conditions, close to 40 dgr C.

Last day of practise before the real stuff starts.
Jilles with the 4th fastest time and happy with pace of his Serpent 733. He can run very consistent laptimes which will prove essential in qualifying.
Salven (Serpent 733/Mega ZX) was also very fast with a 6th fastest lap of the day. Some motor-issues lost a few practise laps. Its a very fast Mega ZX engine, but a few sudden stops are puzzling.
Green, Kyle, Mazzeo, Gentile, Sabrina and many other 733 racers are getting dialed in and will show their speed in tmrw qualifiers.

Wednesday was an interesting day and still not finished. Many set-ups are tried. Bodies, tyres, fuel, diffs, shocks etc etc. Lots of stuff to try.
Team Serpent is sharing the set-up work, as to cover more possibilities in shorter time and learn the new 733 car quicker.

Stef reports from the Serpent pit.
Team Serpent is dialing in the new Serpent 733 at the Gubbio track. Most drivers have just received the Serpent 733 kits in the week prior to the EC or at the EC itself. So there is some fine-tuning and explaining to do.

The 1st production runs of the Serpent 733 are shipping.
SerpentEurope, SerpentAmerica and SerpentAsia have been sending out cars in the last few days, so should arrive in your shop soon, all depending on your location.
Pre-orders are overwhelming, which means we will have to keep some of you waiting, but our production-team is proceeding fast and most current orders can be shipped within july.
Its worth the wait !
Thank you all for the many positive reactions we received through the web, forums and email. Designer / racer Michael Salven is a proud man and so are all of us at Serpent....
