YES!!! Love driving the older vintage rippers!! This and the Clod were the trucks to have if Monster Trucks were your thing🤙🏻 I couldn’t afford the Clod so I had the flat black Midnight Pumpkin and a Frog. Great fun Joe!!👍🏻 keep um comin 😁❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
My dad and uncle are the main reason I love rc so much. I was born in 85. But some of my earliest memories were my dad and my uncle racing their big red RadioShack monster trucks, and them talking about how good the 9.6v battery packs were. I never was allowed to play with them, but to appease me, my uncle would always pull out a Baja vw bug with a little air pump. Fill the little air tank with the pump and flip a switch, and it would take off for 15 feet or so. And the sounds that came out of it were too perfect.... Anyone else ever play with an air powered car?
I find that when driving trucks like this I can just relax. Don't have to worry about heat or really breaking anything on them. Just bash them about and have fun.
That’s pretty cool 😎 really like the vintage stuff! Did you ever have one of those planes on the end of a cable attached to a flashlight kinda thing! That was the hot thing when I was a kid!👍👍😁😎✌️
I never had one as a kid but a friend of mine did and his brother got a Wild Willy. Both were cool to watch at the track. Not competitive but AWESOME!!!🤘🤘🤘
Ya baby ya!!..started with a hornet..then fox..then falcon..then blackfoot..then clodbuster..then rc10..then then..then..then..sup papi joe..whats for dinner..also thanks for the vids
Mine was the Blackfoot! I always burned my fingers on that damn mechanical speed controller. I always wanted a clod buster always drooled at hobby Store, never owned one!
I did a mod to mine to make the wheelie bar wider so bit more stable video on my channel man it's so fun to drive grin ear to ear the whole time I think my 2nd or third RC was my midnight pumpkin qd glad you got it back out again 🤟😎 does anyone know why it has the servo size cut out in the tray?
Hopefully they can push some software updates to some of their older stuff to get better performance. I have 2 furitek systems in a 1:24 and a 1:18, super unhappy with both. The 24th one is great with a brushed motor, it totally sucks with the brushless. The Capra system is just straight junk, it crawls like garbage no matter what settings you change.
Brings back so many great memories
Love the old school rcs I had a bullhead back in the day👌
"I'm not going to tear this up, just pop some wheelies"
(Immediately cuts to slow mo jumps on the track) 😂😂😂 I love it brotha 🍻
