It's a shame when a pure race manufacturer is offering a ready to run. At least it comes with a starter box and not a pull-start engine (small saving grace given the radio is AM).

I like Serpent. In the 80's I used to race the Excel in 1/8 scale gas. They didn't even have 1/10 gas back then. That car when set up right handled like it was on rails. AWD and a 2 speed. You can see from the photos how well used it is. I took these photos shortly before I sold it as it had been sitting around unused for about 12 yrs. Once in a while I would take it out to demonstrate to some one but I stopped racing due to job changes and relocations and not living anywhere near that kind of stuff gets raced any more. Ir could sit in a closet for 2 yrs. I would charge up the radio and the car would start right up. Never had engine trouble.
I'm getting back into the hobby. I just spent almost $1K yestrday buying a Losi XXX-NT Adam Drake truck, a radio, and engine and various accessories since I got rid of everything. Little did I know I would be getting back in. You know, you have stuff lying around for years and years, you finally decide to get rid of it. Then not long after you need it again. I could have used my radio, tools and all sorts of stuff. I would have only needed to get a new car.
