On 6 december 2008 Michael Salven and me, were in China to open a new onroad rc car track.
The really nice new rc onroad track is located in Chengdu, on the central west side of China, a city of close to 15 million people.
Thomas and Jun, both owners from the track and also of newly opened rc shop LOPO RC, invited Serpent for this event.

The very popular large Serpent bag is back in stock again.
Very usefull to store and carry all kind of race-equipment. Its has a seperate pocket for the set-up board and one for your documents too.
Check the product-page.

Last Weekend, in the beautiful city of Cordoba, the National Championship for the promo class was held in the beautiful Car-C track, same venue as last WC.

This weekend we had the 4th round of the Florida State Series.
I arrived on Saturday morning to find the track had been prepared very well. I decided to run both classes and looked forward to hanging with the boys.

I parked the sedan and...

Last weekend Flavio have won the last round wich was held in Sto André-SP.
The 2008 Title has being disputed by his Serpent Team Mates Chung Min shu , Flavio and Renato.

Early morning rain delayed the start of the last race for the Puerto Rican Championship Title. The track dried up relatively fast. Although traction was lost due, so some setup changes were in order for many of the drivers.
