Toys for Tots Race 2008
Every year the Homestead race crew holds the "Toys for Tots" race for the less privileged children. I love being apart of this race to raise as many toys as possible. It is nice to see racers in a different mind frame. Putting the kids first and being a part of an awesome cause.
The attached pictures show DJ’s TQ and Winning Serpent 960 along with Paolo who performed excellent pit during the final.
The 960-08 set-up is posted under set-ups section in racing or in the 903008 page. Try it, its...
Michael Salven has developed a number of new idea’s over 2008 and discussed the performance of the current 08 version with Serpent drivers and Team drivers. Feedback of the drivers is used to take the 960 platform to its next level of development. It was clear that the Serpent drivers are really happy with the current 08 version already, as results also show clearly. So just wait and see how Michael Salven takes the 960 to an even higher level of engineering and performance.
Markus Mobers, the Germany based designer of the S120, will be travelling with friends to Florida start 2009, to take part in the biggest rc race in the world.
The Serpent S120 has made a very strong introduction on race-tracks around the world.
The new look with the one-piece machined rear pod, the unique central monoshock, the adjustable t-bar tweak-station with blades and the fully adjustable front end has brought a lot of innovations to 1/12.
A few area's needed some improvement and that has been taken care of now.
- improved T-bar design
- improved rear shaft
