Aww man! Why did they have to make these things so big!
Yeah. Dodge Ram it is. A little story to go with it. I was looking around the shop for an OL. The guy suggested a MZM. But it wasout of my budget. So he showed me this one, it was a used truck. He said 230 and I was like WTF? A new one is for 200. I took a look at it anyway. After putting in batteries, it wouldn't turn. Another customer walks in, so he says, open it up and check the problem yourself, I open it up and the servo wires were ripped. I quickly put it back together and told him it could be fixed but it would need new wires and a lot of soldering. So he drops the price to 200. I still disagree. By now the guy was really ****ed, I had spent an hour in the shop and bought nothing So i said give me some upgrades and 200 last. And he Agreed! I got, X-Speed motor Alloy rims Kyosho tires Some 3Racing alloy One hellova deal. Later, T.I.M

Well, got some drifting tires for my AWD.
They are not like normal ATM ones. These ones have a tread on them. And they are narrow up front and wide in the rear. Hopefully you can see the treads: Mounted: Also painted them silver: I changed the rims to 0 offset rear and +2 front: Now the rims are flush with the body: Oh, and It on the dyno. a stock AWD does 27.Impressive...: And if I'm right, the batteries wern't even fully charged... Comments/suggestions welcome. Later, T.I.M

Do you already tested the new tires?
Are they made of plastic like the ATM/Kyosho drifting tires? |

As far as I know the GPMs are and only difference is that rigid texture.

This was the damage on the body when I got it:
I got my Macro lens a few days ago. Took it for a run. This thing is a beast:rockon: Videos soon! Chassis looks like it went through $hit: All in all, the MZM is an amazing truck to buy. The suspension design is just sick. Although it has a few flaws... Such as, 1) It's 2WD This has to be the biggest flw in the chassis. It gets hung up so incredibly easily it's astounding. A video would clear this up. 2) You guys see the that under the left wheel? Well, because of that, it gets stuck pretty easily, here's an example: See what I mean? More later. Comments/suggestions welsome. Later, T.I.M
