Track-Focused Carbon Upright for SRX8 GT

The Serpent 601178 Carbon Upright Mount upgrades SRX8 GT TQ GP cars with a stiffer, lighter mounting point to reduce unwanted flex. Constructed from quality carbon fiber, it is aimed at drivers wanting tighter steering feel.

Lightweight Carbon Improves Control

Carbon fiber's strength-to-weight benefits help the 601178 maintain chassis precision while cutting mass, which gives more predictable reactions during corner entry and exit.

Made for Cobra SRX8 GT Series Fitment

Specifically modelled for the Cobra SRX8 GT Series, this upright slot-in neatly with factory geometry and is suitable for race day upgrades or routine part replacement.

How much weight does the carbon upright save compared to stock?

Savings depend on the original material, but carbon uprights like the 601178 typically reduce unsprung mass while increasing stiffness for better handling.

Is any special maintenance required for carbon components?

Inspect for impact damage and keep mounting surfaces clean; avoid overtightening fasteners and replace if any cracks appear.

Can this upright handle offroad jumps and hard landings?

Carbon is strong but not indestructible; it handles track loads well but heavy offroad impacts may require inspection or replacement.

Will I need to change wheel alignment after fitting?

Always check toe and camber after swapping uprights, as small geometry differences can affect alignment and tyre wear.
