Improve Viper 988 Steering with the Serpent DTS

The Serpent SER903709 DTS system set is designed to sharpen the handling of the Viper 988 1/8 GP by directly modifying load on the inside front wheel driven by steering input and the fitted excentre.

Direct Control of Front-End Traction

Raising load on the inside front wheel is a proven way to enhance corner entry. Conventional changes such as anti-roll bar or spring swaps and caster adjustments can alter weight distribution and tyre contact. The DTS gives direct influence via steering lock and excentre choice rather than broad chassis changes.

Fine Adjustment via Interchangeable Excentres

The DTS allows you to tune the extra wheel load with different excentres so you can match tyre contact patch to your chosen caster. Quick excentre swaps make it simple to trial settings between sessions.

Accurate Setup Ensures Repeatable Performance

Set the DTS with minimal play but free lateral movement to maintain predictable handling. Attention to small clearances and torque settings helps sustain consistent behaviour through multiple runs.

Inspect the DTS before each main event and after heavy running. Check for loose fixings, worn bushings and any play in the mechanism to avoid inconsistent responses.
Not necessarily. Use the DTS to fine-tune front bite after you have a baseline shock and spring setup. Only make suspension changes if the DTS adjustments highlight other balance issues.
Yes, the DTS is useful across surfaces. Choose smaller offsets for loose or low-grip surfaces and larger offsets for grippier tarmac to tailor turn-in behaviour.
Small, controlled excentre changes can improve lap consistency by stabilising turn-in. Big changes may require a period of adaptation, so test progressively and record lap data.
Mark each excentre and keep a simple log of settings. Use a torque-limited driver for repeatable screw tightness and recheck steering motion after each swap.
