Serpent 720 pilots take first 5 places !

In the 5th and last run of qualifying Salven managed to take the provisional pole from Jilles Groskamp, both racing the brand- new Serpent 720. Salven almost got a 20-lapper in, but that will surely happen at the EC …
Also Kolff and Green pushed it oncemore to the limit in the last run and gained a few places to move directly into the final !!

Groskamp already set his fastest heat in the 2nd run. Groskamp ( multiple world-championship finalist in electrics) got his S720 car only on Thursday. After a week of practise in Italy for the WC in electrics , it was his turn now to show his ability with this new 1/10 nitro-car. He adapted very well and very quick. The Mega MF engine is very much to is liking, stable, smooth and very powerfull. Groskamp wll also race for Serpent/Mega at the 1/10 Worlds in Australia.

Richard Keur, Serpents sales-manager, managed an excellent 5th place , 1st on the grid for the semi-final with his S720 Mega-MasMo.

In total 7 drivers with S720 in its first official outing.
