Serpent s411's for sale

[kipper123]

I have noticed rather a lot of s411's for sale on here, and I was wondering your reasons for selling up ?

Is it spares availability ?
Team driver support ?
Any other reasons ?
Please post on here and let me no

Ive got a inclin that its due to how difficult to get setup up right, a good friend of mine has got one and after 4 meetings its still being a pain to get right. I believe that the car out of the box isn't quite drivable anyway after some spring changes and setup changes I believe the car could be pretty good,

I had a round using the car last meeting and it was a handful to drive but what I can say is if you can set it up right it would be very Fast ( I would probably have one if it was going at the right price ) anyone wishing to swap for a 416x give me a nod HAhaha

I think all it needs is a few more drivers running it and supplying good setup infomation to the rest of the country and the car could be a hit, the build quality is simply beautiful and it looks very very nice.

Anyway I hope a few more guys post with there experience.

Yes the car does take a little work to get working on carpet, but as Chris said on Tarmac it is awesome, what I will do is get Chris kerswells setup from the last ardent winter series and post it on here .

Yea just been racing on carpet with it and its a low to medium grip track, he tried Kris's setup but it didn't feel right he said the rear was just all over the place, what diff oil are you guys running. he has been using 1200 but I'm thinking he may need higher?

Cheers guys, all info appreciated.

I would try thinner oil ? Maybe 800 this will help. I haven't really had much experience with the car indoors. Is he planning on doing any nationals or the btcc ? If so get him to come over and either me Chris or mark will take a look of he's struggling

Also what chassi used ? 2, 2.25 of 2.5 mm ? I was running the same setup as Chris but with a 2.5 and the car was too stiff
