Refined handling with the Serpent SRX8 GT '23
The Serpent SRX8 GT '23 combines service-friendly features and weight-saving upgrades to sharpen handling and setup flexibility. This 600066 kit is aimed at drivers wanting clear tuning options for varied track conditions.
Hybrid bulkhead benefits
Hybrid bulkheads lower weight while maintaining support where needed, improving heat flow and making pinion height adjustments simpler during setup and maintenance.
Slim rear body mount
The carbon fibre topped rear mount reduces mass and keeps strength, and it supports rearward-facing posts to help avoid body interference in traffic.
Optimised radio bay design
The streamlined radio bay is focused on weight and access, allowing fast transponder servicing and easy throttle and steering servo swaps between sessions.
Stepped caster adjustment
Caster blocks adjust from 0 to 10 degrees in 2.5 degree increments with etched markers, enabling repeatable changes to steering and stability characteristics.
Upgraded damper characteristics
Shocks have increased volume and reduced friction, moving to a 3.5 mm shaft and Delrin pistons to deliver steadier damping and improved consistency lap after lap.
Balanced, near-symmetrical chassis
The chassis remains familiar but shifts toward a near-symmetrical profile to control flex and enhance robustness, with pre-drilled points to tune weight distribution easily.
Hollow centre two-speed shaft
The hollow two-speed shaft lowers inertia for snappier acceleration and reduced engine load, while captured pins prevent lost set screws on the centre outdrives.
Adaptable differential settings
Four diff positions provide a broad tuning range to suit low to high grip surfaces, and shared inserts help cut down on spare components.
