Yeah, there was a link there which clearly stated that they were in fact bankrupt. Can anyone tell more about this? (What date was it)

From serious people who know them well I know they have struggled for many years. It's hard to compete against asian manufactureres (lower costs). Maybe Serpent is a bit behind schedule as to moving their production to Asia...

Still, knowing Michael and Ronald to be serious people I'm sure they will manage to stay afloat! I miss Pieter though, including his "boss page"s and myTSN...

I know why 1:8 TR racers dislike them somewhat. The cars are very good, but there seems to always be some parts of inferior quality. Which leads to DNFs... They've also been very good at taking to market option parts and new things that should have undergone more extensive testing... For instance a Mugen in comparison is a bulletproof car...
