Lets be honest, it looks like its gone down the pan.
Usually when a company re-structures it means they are cutting back or trying to cut costs etc, if they were doing well they would call it expanding
Moving production to asia has proven this to be the case.
It looks like they have laid of the people who do not make money for them, like drivers and designers, im sure if there are cash flow issues they will want to steady the ship before going on new ventures, from what i hear a lot of people dislike serpent as a company in the 1/8 onroad world, i personally dont know the reasons why.
