Bathy 08-02-2008 11:25 AM

That looks bloody awesome!

Can they do one in blue? ta :D

No offence AERO but I have to admit This one look it the one to have.
Every thing looks like it's been engineered 3 times over.
No cheap compromise.

With all this Great Cars commin' out , I'm having a hard time decidin' witch one to go for.

Hats off to Serpent and their RD team for this. really looks like a threat.

No like I said its an alloy chassis with alloy side parts.. If this one is hand machined and formed because the production one isn't ready or that the plastics are spray painted black because they are some protoypes then you get the idea.
The final car will look like this. ;)

you could always have the anodic coating removed and all the parts re-anodised Bathy....

jimmy 08-02-2008 11:32 AM

That chassis might look a bit minging if you anodised it anything but that 'raw' colour. well, after a couple of packs thru the car outdoors it would anyway

DCM 08-02-2008 11:34 AM

use some protetion Jimmy, put a car condom on it... roflol...

jimmy 08-02-2008 11:38 AM

Perhaps a liberal coating of KY underneath it? :lol: that's the shame about such a lovely looking chassis, its gonna get abused. Oh well:drool:

but these are designed to be abused aren't they.... lol...

And if you can't get good feeling from the normal chassis condom, maybe go for ribbed :woot:

burgie 08-02-2008 12:24 PM

those cells look mighty close together :woot:
i presume there is a tray or something that will restrict forward movement of the rear set of cells in an impact or heavy landing???

nice looking car though

Wow, that looks very impressive!

Looks like the EP market is really heating up. I can't wait to see what this season brings in terms of results.

Too bad there isn't a worlds this year. Should mean a diverse Euros and Nationals series.

I personaly can't wait.
:thumbsup:

OldTimer 08-02-2008 12:55 PM

JohnM 08-02-2008 01:07 PM

Oh well, looks like I'll be getting a divorce then! :lol:

That is simply stunning :thumbsup:
