Serpent SPYDER SRX2 Mid Motor 2wd race buggy Kit 1/10 scale, electric powered |
|||
 |
|
||
Serpent designer Billy Easton, former 1/10 scale 2wd World Champion, and the designer of the successful Cobra 1/8 series of cars, has created this next masterpiece, the MID motor version of the very popular Spyder RM. The Spyder MM will perform best at high grip tracks like clay and astro turf. Serpent decided to create 1st a purpose built rear motor version and then create a mid motor version right after. The mid-motor version is also purpose built sharing many parts with its rear motor sister. The idea was to build two condition specific designs, with the highest level of performance possible. Drivers per race will be able to choose either version, and will not have to make any changes on the spot. Front end on both types is same, but chassis and all rear end differs a lot. |
