Next-level tuning with the Serpent SRX8 GT '23
The Serpent SRX8 GT '23 brings practical upgrades aimed at lap time consistency and easier setup. This 600066 kit focuses on reducing rotating mass and improving adjustability for club and regional racing.
Bulkheads with hybrid construction
The hybrid bulkheads are designed to cut weight while keeping rigidity where it counts, improving heat transfer and simplifying pinion height adjustments for clearer gear engagement.
Low-weight rear body support
The rear body mount uses a carbon fibre top to trim grams without losing strength, and it supports rearward posts to help prevent body catching during tight passes.
Access-friendly radio bay
A lighter, more open radio box makes transponder access and servo swaps faster, and the carbon elements help keep the centre of mass low.
Precision caster adjusters
Set caster from 0 through 10 degrees in 2.5 degree increments using laser-etched marks for repeatable setups that aid steering accuracy.
Improved shock dynamics
The revised shock layout reduces internal friction and increases oil capacity, adopting a 3.5 mm shaft and Delrin pistons for smoother damping response.
Robust, nearly symmetrical chassis
The chassis keeps familiar geometry while moving toward a near-symmetrical design to balance flex and strength. Factory-drilled spots allow easy weight tuning for different tracks.
Optimised two-speed drivetrain
The hollow two-speed shaft reduces inertia for faster throttle response and lower engine load, with captured pins securing the center outdrives to avoid lost screws.
Versatile differential tuning
Four selectable diff positions let you match traction conditions, and common inserts keep spare parts tidy and maintenance quicker.
