Thank you for the opportunity to run in the Serpent Cobra Team.


Q: What made you decide doing this ?
A: I saw the whole concept as a positive thing. Serpent goal is to be one of the biggest brands in the 1:8 offroad and it's something I want to be part of.
At the same time I see it as a new revival and a challenge to switch to a different brand than what I've been running the past few years.
Another reason that I switched is the strong relationship I have with the Swedish distributor HP racing. Where the owner Klas will be my mechanic on races next year.
