Performance chassis crafted for the Viper 988

The Serpent 903673 chassis is specified for the Viper 988 1/8 GP platform and is manufactured from 7075-T6 aluminium at a 5mm thickness to provide enhanced durability. It is intended to improve the car's resilience under the stresses of competitive running.

Why the 7075-T6 plate matters

7075-T6 aluminium is prized for a strong strength-to-weight characteristic that helps keep handling sharp while resisting flex. The 5mm thickness adds a layer of toughness that benefits drivers who encounter hard braking and cornering forces.

  • Compatibility: Serpent Viper 988 1/8 GP

The Serpent 903673 offers a robust base for drivers wanting a long-lasting chassis that stays consistent lap after lap.

Can I use this chassis with aftermarket motor mounts?

Many common aftermarket motor mounts that match the Viper 988 layout will work, but check hole patterns and clearances before fitting to avoid interference.

Does the thicker plate change suspension feel?

A stiffer, thicker chassis can alter chassis flex and thus handling. It often tightens turn-in and improves consistency, but you may want to tweak shock and camber settings to compensate.

What track surfaces suit this chassis?

The reinforced 5mm plate is suited to hard asphalt and carpet circuits where impacts and heavy loads are common. It also works well on well-prepared temporary tracks.
