New Serpent 2wd 1/10th buggy coming

[badger5]

Just saw this on RC Tech, seems that Serpent is getting into 1/10th off road then.

Perhaps we will get a 4wd buggy as well some time.

The Durango/Gerd Strange/Serpent tie up and prototype buggies are well known, but it would be good if Serpent could release 1/10th off road buggies that we can all own and enjoy.

Because it is the Durango DEX410, look at the wooden plinth, it has an old Durango logo . Something happened and the car was released under the Durango brand

Serpent went broke and had to sell the project...
After that a few people (with money) got serpent restarted

That's the history lesson for today

Serpent announces new 2wd 1/10 offroad buggy!

Serpent announced today that Swedish offroad racer, David Hassel, has joined the Serpent offroad team. Hassel was brought on the team to put his test and racing abilities to work as they made the following statement regarding David's upcoming race plans:

"Winter will be good for running indoor 1/8 and 1/10 offroad and also some indoor carpet racing with 411. As soon as Serpent's next big project, the 2wd 1/10 buggy will be ready, he will test and race that as well..."

We are anxious to see and hear more of this new Serpent 2wd 1/10 buggy. Many were skeptical of the "onroad known" company jumping into the offroad scene several years back, however, they have proved with race wins worldwide that they have the knowledge and development to build race winning machines on carpet, asphalt, AND dirt.

We have been told that the 2003 IFMAR 2wd World Champion and team driver, Billy Easton, is the main man behind the development and project of the buggy.

Stay tuned for more details...
