Race Heritage of the Serpent Viper 977 WC Limited Edition

This Serpent Viper 977 WC Limited Edition celebrates the accomplishments of Serpent driver Tadahiko Sahashi, who took TQ and the World Championship in Japan in the 2013-2014 season. The kit bundles many of the optional parts used in Sahashi's setup so hobbyists can replicate a proven championship configuration.

CNC 7075 Chassis for Track Stability

Central to the Viper 977 WC Limited Edition is a 5mm 7075 aerospace-grade aluminum chassis machined to exacting tolerances. The CNC process delivers consistent stiffness and balance needed for high-speed control, while the engraved Viper 977 WC marking highlights the model's limited edition status.

Tuned Suspension and Steering Options

The car uses independent double wishbone suspension paired with RCM shock absorbers to provide precise feedback and cornering control. Adjustable camber, caster and toe-in let racers tweak handling for specific surfaces, and the steering block offers several Ackermann positions for tailored steering response.

Balance and Weight Tuning

Brass weight inserts in the chassis slider let you shift balance quickly to influence steering and traction. Together with a lightweight 2-speed SL8 gearbox and robust anodized aluminum parts, this package reduces rotating mass and helps with acceleration and mid-corner stability.

The Serpent Viper 977 WC Limited Edition is aimed at experienced racers who want a highly tuneable, competition-grade on-road platform. Its championship provenance and precision components make it a solid base for track-focused setups.

This chassis is designed for standard 1/8 scale nitro powerplants. Choose an engine commonly used in 1/8 on-road competition and check firewall clearance during mock-up.
You will need a high-torque steering servo, throttle/brake servo, a compatible radio system, receiver and a battery for the servos. Select components rated for competitive use to match the chassis capabilities.
Expect detailed setup work. The kit includes many optional items but fine tuning camber, toe, roll center and weight placement is necessary to achieve optimal handling on different tracks.
Spare and optional parts for the Viper 977 range are commonly available through Serpent dealers, including suspension components, gearbox parts and chassis accessories for competition maintenance and upgrades.
