Overview of the Cobra GT GP

The Serpent 600049 Cobra GT GP 1/8 Cup-version is crafted for drivers who prioritise precision and durability in on-road nitro racing. It offers a balance of rugged construction and tuning flexibility for lap time improvements.

Novarossi Engine and Transmission

This car is fitted with a Novarossi pull-start engine, offering dependable power for race conditions. The motor works with a 2-speed automatic gearbox and a reinforced 4WD system to maintain traction and smooth power delivery.

Suspension and Steering Characteristics

With fully independent suspension and 16mm big-bore shocks, the Cobra GT GP gives a broad tuning window to adjust handling. Ball-raced anti-roll bars and an angled steering setup reduce bump steer and improve cornering precision.

Major components are made from 7075 T6 aluminium to keep weight low while increasing stiffness. The 3mm heavy-duty chassis plate has a front kick-up for impact forgiveness, and Dragon-RC GT tyres are supplied pre-mounted to save setup time.
