Precision on-road chassis designed for competition

The Serpent 600048 Cobra GT-e 1/8 EP 3.0 delivers a race-oriented on-road package with engineering focused on predictable handling and adjustability. It is aimed at racers who want a setup-first platform for asphalt circuits.

Chassis build and drivetrain details

The Cobra GT-e 3.0 uses a 7075-T6 aluminium chassis to balance rigidity and flex tuning. Carbon fibre shock towers and a spring-steel drivetrain support robust power transfer, while three gear differentials and low battery positioning help maintain nimble cornering behaviour.

Tuned suspension and improved steering response

A fully independent suspension with updated aluminium C-hubs and uprights refines wheel alignment and tyre load. The revised shock risers and tower layout increase grip and allow consistent cornering, and the angled steering geometry helps reduce unwanted bump steer.

Serviceability and tuning choices

Multiple shock mounting points, roll-center settings and a modular radio box mean quick changes trackside. The captured foam bumper adds basic crash protection and simplifies repairs between heats.

Medium to hard compound touring tyres for asphalt typically work well, with experimentation around width and offset to suit local tracks.
Yes, the robust drivetrain and accessible layout make it suitable for longer events when paired with efficient electronics and proper gear ratios.
