SRC 1/8th on-road option parts

Sprint RC from Italy introduce new option parts for the Serpent S977 and several other nitro on-road cars. First up is the C08 gear box set for the S977 that allows the use of smaller 0.8 module gears from Serpent 1/10th kits. Included in the set, that also moves the engine 1.5mm further back, is a new middle layshaft, gear and one-way housings, a 3-bearing clutch housing, clutch shoes and 17/22T pinions. The set is rounded out by updated engines mounts and will make for better acceleration and bottom to mid-range response. Also new are carbon fibre quick change levers for the front and rear axles. They are made from 4mm carbon material and weight only 3g in total, minimising vibrations and improving tyre wear over conventional metal levers. Last but not least come 20 micron hard coated drive shafts. They offer a super low weight and best possible durability and are usable on virtually every 1/8th on-road car.
