Serpent 600040 Cobra GT 1/8 Nitro On-Road Competition Car  [SER600040]

Competition-oriented Serpent Cobra GT in 1/8 Scale

The Serpent 600040 Cobra GT 1/8 Nitro On-Road Car is engineered for club and national competition, offering a blend of rigidity and tuneability. The Cobra platform is built to handle aggressive track driving while allowing fine setup adjustments.

Robust Chassis with Tuned Flex

Constructed from 3mm 7075 T6 aluminium, the chassis keeps weight down while providing structural integrity. Machined cutouts control flex zones and countersunk holes smooth airflow, while the front kick-up meets racing specifications and protects the car on heavy impacts.

Accurate Steering and Adjustable Suspension

Angled bell cranks reduce bump steer and improve steering geometry. The combination of composite steering blocks and 10 degree C-hubs delivers predictable turn-in, and the oversized suspension arms plus adjustable anti-roll bars let you dial in balance for different circuits.

Durable, Tunable Powertrain

Power is transferred through cardan shafts and compact gear differentials for reliable response. The SL8 2-speed gearbox, inspired by the Serpent 966, uses a centrifugal, spring-loaded shoe setup to switch gears smoothly under load.

Balanced Brake and Fuel Arrangement

The central disk brake with ventilated glass fiber disks provides solid braking without raising the centre of gravity. The 150cc composite nylon fuel tank features a secure shock cap and integrated tube routing for steady fuel supply during long runs.

The Serpent 600040 Cobra GT 1/8 Nitro On-Road Car is a choice platform for racers who want a tunable, competition-capable car that responds well to setup changes and track conditions.
