IceMike 07-08-2010 08:53 AM

jaank 07-08-2010 08:57 AM

It won't work - its too stiff.
Alltrough that center diff is nice.

I think that reads "s10b" - does that fit in with Serpent's current numbering?

JohnM 07-08-2010 09:05 AM

Back end looks lot like a HB D4.

Mr. Red 07-08-2010 09:09 AM

xray;)

Caster 4wd pro version

simoncrabb 07-08-2010 09:34 AM

That smb is in the same font as durango!?!

Chinese 'copy'?

NitroArgi 07-08-2010 09:52 AM

Actuallu it says S10B and if I had to make a wild quess about the manufacturer it will had to be one from the other side of the Atlantic. My quess would be either Serpent or O'Donnell :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

In fairness Mark, you could compare it to any modern style 4wd buggy and it would have similarities. But, i really dont think its a D4 rip-off at all, far too many differences.

And besides, it IS a castor. Jimmy just confirmed it in the NEWS section. So, debate over i think.

jimmy 07-08-2010 10:32 AM

Certainly has some elements that look familiar but its one of the most unique buggys doing the rounds at the moment - at least in this PRO spec it is - D4 isn't machined from a lump of alloy is it! Very interesting.

Mr. Red 07-08-2010 10:48 AM

No CVD`s! Guess the final production car will have those.
