Serpent do well at Carpet Wars

Team Serpent UK enjoyed success at the 2008 Carpet Wars World Cup with Mark Sadler and his S400 being crowned champion of the Pro-Stock class with team-mate Dan Ghibaldan joining him on the podium for the big race.

Despite tough competition in Super Stock, Sadler headed the times after 4 rounds of qualifying with his S400 which featured a Serpent UK Prototype top deck. Also putting in Top 10 qualifying times for the team were Dan Ghibaldan in 5th, Jay Westwood in 6th and Timmay Langdell in 9th.

By the end of qualifying three S400s had made the A Final with Sadler fastest lining up in 3rd position with Westwood 6th and Ghibaldan 8th.

Having tried both ball diff and gear diff options during qualifying the team opted to run ball diffs for the Finals.

After three legs of finals which produced 3 different winners, the result was tied but after the computer was checked it was Sadler who took the title due to his Leg victory was done in the fastest time. A great result for Team Serpent UK and the S400 which was backed up by Ghibaldan finishing second while S400 debutant Westwood took 7th overall.

It was a great day for the team. Though I had a mare the car itself was getting better as the weekend went on. Mark and the guys in 19t dominated the listings. 3 S400's in the A main. Mark drove really well, consitant and fast, and that was enough to crown him.

Dan did well too, making best of his grid start to move up and take 3rd overall.

More to come from Serpent this year , that's a guarantee !
