Its been a loooong time since I posted here or even visted but then came clint's ZZMT articulation mod so I had to check that out. I notice you guys don't have a super slicks forum.

I doubt you've missed the potential of the SSMT143 but in case you did here's some pics of mine. The rocks are all fake, made from foam and then skined with plaster, concrete floor patch, sand and glue and latex paints.

The rocks are on the infield of my ZZSE track. I've textures the surface to mimick old patchy and cracked tarmac with 2 broken bridges.

:-) Hmm?Spooky (?).......... Good to see ya. I didn't know you were a member here also..... :???: Your truck was one of the final deciding factors of me getting one of the last ones that Outcast had in the group buy. I still have my SSMT1/43 stock for now. I'll do some minor (and much needed) mods soon enough. And get this, since everyone is doing Yotas, GMs and Fords. I picked up a Dodge D50 1/24 kit to run on mine. Hey, I just gotta be different :cool:

Cool SSMT. I like Blue. :-o
Are those the shocks from the 1/43rd SSMT? I have some of those. :???:

I have plans for mine someday. I have a working one, and a broken one that I'll eventually fix with Mini-T electrics when I get a around to upgrading the electrics in my Mini-T.

Dave(mud), take no offense to this, but the name of your truck annoys the fuck outta me... has for some time, now...

It is a damn nice 'lil rig though :-)

And if it makes you feel any better, the names of 219s TLTs annoy me to no end, too...

Hi guys, sorry I haven't been back for a while and missed the conversation. I didn't get a notice recently.

Those are the stock shocks. I remember joe were' talking right now. :lol:

:lol: actually I'd like to throw them at a couple of people at work too clint. Actually they put a pretty good dent in a skull since they are skinned with floor patch cement. They are a lot lighter than real rocks so you could definitely fling them and then duck and cover.

Ibjamn I think I know the kit you mean that would be cool. I did an Isuzu Vehicross on one of my 04 for something different and its about to end up on a SSMT.

One of these days I'll do a tut on the rocks. check out some pics of my ZZ track here:

was on the first page. :) I figured it was time I finally worked on the sub 1:24 scale, since i've done the 1:10 and 1:18 dances. :)
