Serpent has been going through some changes lately and many rumours have been singing around, which is why they have decided to release a statement on the matter. Click the read more link below to view the statement!

Serpent Headquarters remains based in Heemstede, Holland, at a smaller location than before.. At Serpent head-quarters general project-management, r&d, marketing and sales are being done. Michael Salven works on all designs of current and new projects. Billy Easton works on r&d too, but then based in the USA.

Serpent has moved all the production to Asia. In the last 5-10 years already most parts were made in Asia and we focused production in Holland on injection moulding of all nylon parts, logistics and packing of car-kits and spare parts. To make things more efficient and flexible we decided to move all production to one expert production location in Asia. This facility is fully operational and kits and parts are made available from there.

Before the main warehouse was in Holland. In the new structure it is managed in 3 locations SerpentAsia, SerpentAmerica and SerpentEurope ( in the making). Ofcourse the network of Serpent Distributors (over 45 worldwide) will continue to operate as before.

Serpent is working on some exciting new projects, which will be revealed in the time to come, we will keep you posted, as usual. Some more info on the development of the Serpent company will follow too.

Race report by Paul Lemieux

The 4th annual IIC was held last week at the Rivera Hotel and Casino located in the middle of the famous Las Vegas strip. There was a great feeling of history being back close to where the race started at the Stardust a few years ago. When I showed up everyone was eager to race and have a fun week in Vegas.

Serpent continues, and stronger as before.

Serpent has decided to move all production and logistics to Asia. Serpent Distributors are supplied from Asia warehouses direct.

Product-development, marketing, sales and overall management will remain in Holland.

Due to high cost of manufactuering in Europe (Holland), the margins were getting to small to continue operation in Holland.

Team Serpent Ireland driver Keith Dempsey headed home a 1-2 for the 720 in the fifth round of the ORCA Club Championships in Dublin last weekend with team-mate Robert Boylan taking the runners up spot.

Starting from pole having TQ’d the event, Dempsey cruised to his first win of the series using his 720 ’08 to set the fastest lap of the race along the way. Having started from 3rd on the grid, teenager Boylan was able to take second after second place qualifier Eoin McGeough dropped 2 places to finish fourth.

The A Final saw no less than six Serpent’s make up the 10 car grid.
