Get Consistent Carpet Lap Times with the Eryx 4.0 Upgrade

The Serpent 401640 2.0mm Aluminium Chassis upgrades the S411 Eryx 4.0 for dedicated carpet racing, focusing on a lower centre of gravity and predictable chassis flex to help drivers find consistent lines.

Which Chassis Suits Your Driving Style

There are three factory chassis options for the Eryx 4.0 so you can match stiffness to traction and track demands:

  • 401639 - 2.0mm Carbon Chassis: Maximum stiffness for tracks with excellent grip, delivering immediate steering and minimal chassis movement.
  • 401640 - 2.0mm Aluminum Chassis: Favoured for carpet, it balances lateral flex and a lower rail profile to stabilise corner entry.
  • 401641 - 2.25mm Carbon Chassis: Slightly more forgiving than the thin carbon, useful on outdoor asphalt where surface irregularities matter.

The aluminium plate is a go-to for indoor racers who want a controllable, adjustable platform that responds well to setup tweaks.

Yes, its lower centre of gravity and tuned flex help rotate the car into the corner, which can reduce understeer when paired with the correct tyre choice.
Softer front springs and slightly firmer rear springs with adjusted droop often complement the aluminium chassis on carpet for improved turn-in and mid-corner balance.
Aluminium is durable, but inspect mounting holes and the plate for wear or bends after heavy use and retorque hardware regularly to maintain setup.
