Serpent 747: chassis weights as tuning device
In the set-up of racing cars in general, weight distribution and balance is very important.
In the Serpent 747 I introduced an easy way to use this knowledge in a very quick way, so that the change of the weight distribution can be made very fast, but still secure, even during a pitstop if needed.

This new development for Cobra buggy is realized after another full year of racing across the globe, listening to feedback from many (team)-drivers and dedicated testing on many different surfaces. The feedback from the drivers on the Cobra Buggy in general is very good, the durability is rated as best in the market, the shocks are toprated, and the diffs and drivetrain with new gears and larger bearings can now withstand any rigors and will last and last !
According to same drivers a more responsive rear end, combined with a bit more steering would bring the Cobra on the highest performance...

Recently David Hassel from Sweden joined team Serpent . David is a very skilled and talented young driver, who can race both onroad and offroad very well, but his main interest is for 1/8 offroad racing and winning !
Coming from Kyosho before, he races Serpent Cobra GP buggy since late august . His 1st race appearance with Cobra Buggy at the Nordics in Norway went really well, winning the semi-final and finished 7th overall, with speed good enough to be on the podium. 2 weeks ago he joined the Swedish Cup for 1/10 gas onroad and finished 3rd with a borrowed 733. Winter will be good for running...
