My first was a little nikko turbo tornato. And i bought it for a dollar. I still haven't found another one for anywhere around the price. It was broken and i fixed it and fell in love with it
The iconic Clod Buster, first released 35 years ago, still attracts a huge amount of interest and that tells you that it captured the imagination of RC enthusiasts world-wide. It may not be the best performing machine but it has the authentic classic monster truck feel to it that few other products have managed to replicate.
I've still got my Clod, and my Nitro Crusher. And, my original MOA crawler built from clod axles and a lexan Nissan Hardbody. That thing was built around 20 years ago. Way before you could buy crawler stuff. Have fun, and be well 🙂👍
I found an old used & abused clod back in 2004 or 05, used the axles to build a super class crawler. Couldn't buy a crawler at that time. Shortly after Axial released their first crawler on the market, and they've came a very long ways since then
I love and own mostly traxxas because that's what my local hobby shop deals by being a premier seller. I do wish there was a local place that sold kits so you can build them. Nothing teaches you more than building a car or truck from the ground up
I'm not saying Traxxas is junk but I would definitely suggest you try another brand. Just to experiment with and compare for yourself. Just cause they strictly sell Traxxas cause Traxxas is Traxxas and gotta be all Traxxas about it doesn't mean you have to be a Traxxas freak to😂. Really though you'd be surprised what you find
Simon checking in from Merritt Island, FL. I’m loving The Legend. I only wish I still had my RCs from 40 years ago… We have our USTE driver passes! Looking forward to seeing you there.
The 1/10 Clod Buster is what started the Monster Truck RC world and was the Base of what we have today the 1/5 Primal RC Raminator Monster Truck to Enjoy!!!!
When you mentioned classic iconic trucks I actually think of 3. I think the Tamiya Clod Buster and the Tamiya Blackfoot. The third truck was for racing. The Team Associated RC10t truck. Thoughts?
Oh man you got to see bigfoot at gravlerama. That's still going on to this day. You just took me back bringin that up. Anyways great video. Excited to see you get your clod out.
when those came out they cost too much so i got the blackfoot , rc10l , rc10l4, hpi savage , savage xl , savage 5t , hyperdrive pro3 , custom works agressor , hpi hellfire , scx10 , injora rock buggy, armma kraton, armma typhon , armma kraton8s roller , scx6 axled iron hammer , next is a heavy metal garage tube chassis 1/5 kraton rock bouncer wich will be my last r/c .
It's dual motor on axle. It doesn't have a singular transmission or drive shafts. Any delay is in the dual speed controller or axle play, which the clod had plenty of.
The Clod is so iconic and your upgrades are a great addition

The clodbuster is one of my favorite rc trucks I got im afraid to bring it to Florida for uste it's been a show truck for years
Wow...I sooo wanted the original when i was a kid. Would stare at the catalogue dreaming of the ultimate toy.

Awesome classic! Always a treat to see you taking it out!
Awesome clod!! The cld don't need to be fast it's so much fun and always looks great in action!!
Ampro has an amazing grille for the Clod, and also offers led taillights, if I'm not mistaken
Just finishing mine up, and it will be a shelf king!

That was awesome, what a legend. Reminds me of the Blackfoot monster truck i had in the late 80's. Epic 😁

I've always wanted a Clodbuster 😢😭
That vid sent me back 30+ years.
You did A great job on the paint job yo
Great video. Clod looks awesome! The rock lights are way cool! I have those same wheels on one of my super clods
Awe YEA!!!! Love the Clod!!! Still needs more KC lights EXO!!!! Those are the perf5 wheels!!!🤘🤘🤘
I could watch Clods run all day. I’ve had mine for a few months now. It’s the grey edition and just waiting on spring to build it up.
still the best looking RC truck ever made. Most modern trucks look so generic and bland
Great to see the original beast 🤟🤟🤟🤟 yours inspired my build all hail the mighty Clod
Have a sound box on my trail truck and absolutely love it! You should definitely add it to the clod buster!

Clod buster class for the track!!!
The 1/10 Clod Buster is what started the Monster Truck RC world and was the Base of what we have today the 1/5 Primal RC Raminator Monster Truck to Enjoy!!!!
I think the Blackfoot and Pumpkin came out first. But the Clod was the first proper RC 4x4x4 monster truck.
I've got a clodbuste QR or something like that. It's a 1/14 scale ⚖ and it cool to me.
one of my first rc trucks
I had a cold buster! Will get another some day ❤
Just finished building me one !!!!
That looks sweet I have the white original one when it came out
Nice truck, good job mate 💪💯😁
"Listen to that friction" 🤣🤣🤣
You filmed that really well 🤘💪👍👍
Awesome truck. Love the minor tweaks you made. Also digging the new intro!
Joe, Would you say you had a 'Bright Idea" 😆I have a Tamiya called a TXT-1...Look it up!!! EPIC

you're right
This vid makes me want to get a clod buster, my local hobby shop has a couple different close busters on the shelf.....might just get one today.....
Clods are awesome! Just picked up the limited Gray Edition
Oh man you got to see bigfoot at gravlerama. That's still going on to this day. You just took me back bringin that up. Anyways great video. Excited to see you get your clod out.
I saw it on TV but I'll never forget it
Great looking Clod!
Thanks!
Love the Clod Buster!!!
Love a clod. Hopefully finally get mine done this weekend
😆watching you have fun made my morning.
I bought one at a yard sale. it came in two box's. it has two sets of tires.
You should do some night crawling with some of your comp rigs.
Having the lights in the exhaust would be cooler than the blower imo, but awesome otherwise!
Is there a modern version af a classic monster truck? I know there is the Raminator, but something smaller?
Awww your teasing me now lol 😆
got any tips for building one? im just waiting on mine to arrive either today or on monday, im also waiting on the ball race kit to come
when those came out they cost too much so i got the blackfoot , rc10l , rc10l4, hpi savage , savage xl , savage 5t , hyperdrive pro3 , custom works agressor , hpi hellfire , scx10 , injora rock buggy, armma kraton, armma typhon , armma kraton8s roller , scx6 axled iron hammer , next is a heavy metal garage tube chassis 1/5 kraton rock bouncer wich will be my last r/c .
I noticed in a lot of the slow mo shots the rear tires are delayed from the fronts is this just driveshaft flex or transmission play.
It's dual motor on axle. It doesn't have a singular transmission or drive shafts. Any delay is in the dual speed controller or axle play, which the clod had plenty of.
We call it Clod Stall
great video
Magnificent Clod. I remember the original fondly. How did you do transmitter control on the lights, by the way?
Classic👍
Would love to see a lunchbox on the channel sometime
I have a Midnight Pumpkin with Chrome body
hot racing makes some really nice axles for that rig but their pricy
👍😁
Legendary!!!
Joe now the question is how hard is it to find a clodzilla 4 kit
no idea buddy, I'd like to give it a 1" stretch though
@@ExocagedRC those clodzilla builds about 20 years ago got crazy, you don't see anything like them these days
@@ExocagedRC here's a video of the clodzilla 4 kit

😍🤩👍🌞🤟💯
Anyways

I bought the 'super clodbuster 2'. Wasn't in anyway, shape, or form of the original. WISH Tamiya would reintroduce the original, irregardless of $$$!
negetive 3 in age lol
So not a legend, I remember my RC10, clodbusters had plastic shocks
I had one!…. That was a LONG time ago… omg!
