Serpent Spyder SRX2 Gen3 2WD buggy kit
Following a first teaser Serpent have lifted the curtain and present their all-new Spyder SRX2 Gen3 1/10th scale 2WD buggy kit. According to Serpent, who listened to feedback from racers, the new SRX2 needed to be slimmer, more stylish, tougher, easier to work on and above all faster. The result is the Gen3 whose updated chassis provides optimal flex characteristics and has pockets to add weight throughout to fine-tune weight distribution. An updated geometry front and rear based on the latest innovations plus lots of adjustability will guarantee racers can find the perfect setup easily while providing room to adapt to future trends. Finally, the improved drivetrain is stronger, freer and easier to work on. The kit will hit stores mid-October.
