Coming from Serpent and made for the latest S120-LTR, S100-LTR and F110-SF2 pan cars is an aluminium centre pivot. The machined aluminium part replaces the standard composite pivot, it makes for improved durability and precision while adding cool looks at the same time.
Coming from Serpent are three different main chassis plates for the Eryx 4.0 touring car. First up is a 2.0mm carbon fibre chassis that is working well on both asphalt and carpet tracks. It helps to generate a good amount of rear traction and a bit less steering and it also comes in handy to avoid traction rolling on super high-bite tracks. Also available is a 2.25mm carbon fibre chassis for asphalt racing. It helps to gain steering and response on the expense of a slightly nervous and edgy car behaviour. Last but not least is a 2.0mm aluminium chassis for the use on carpet tracks. It makes for a lower centre of gravity and less traction rolling while keeping a good balance between steering response and an easy to drive car.
Serpent have new option parts for the 977 Viper 1/8th on-road car available in the form of a rear chassis stiffener set and an extra hard Centax clutch spring. Starting with the chassis stiffener, the set will reduce the chassis flex around the engine area for smoother brake action and it is easily taken off for maintenance and cleaning purposes. Included is a new aluminium bottom brace as well as a tie-rod set to connect the radio plate assembly with the rear 2-speed shaft bracket. The other new part is the X-hard Centax clutch spring. The precision-made spring features ground contact surfaces for constant performance and it is usable in all Serpent 1/8th scale cars with Centax clutch as well as the cars of many other brands.

Coming from Serpent is the Thrust Slipper set for the SRX4 4WD buggy. The 3-pad slipper assembly with additional thrust bearing makes for a smoother power distribution between the front and the rear drivetrain which can be beneficial especially on slippery tracks. The set includes the thrust race, three slipper pads and new pressure plates and it requires the use of the optional #500447 24T slipper shaft pulley.
