Rc Car Serpent Cobra SRX8 TQ GT 1/8 On/Road

This is the Serpent Cobra SRX8 GT 1/8 Nitro On-Road Sedan, an updated 1/8 scale Nitro powered racing car introduced for the GT class. The SRX8-GT shares many high performance parts from the successful SRX8 platform. In addition to the details carried over from the SRX8 platform, Serpent has introduced many updated design concepts to push the SRX8-GT well into the future as well as set itself apart from all competition. The GT program was upgraded with fully aluminum bulkheads, suspension brackets and center 2 speed mounts all included in the kit. The 7075-T6, components are all black anodized with Silver shiny edges, adding definition and style to the finished product. Being involved with the Gt category from almost the beginning, Serpent has understood the direction and path necessary to produce a race winning car. With the S811-GT being Designer Billy Easton’s first GT, mating his knowledge of design with team drivers Joaquin Desoto and his son, as well as countless other Serpent Team members, an unbeatable match was produced for the GT series.
