Many viewers have asked: "What's with that Clod you got in the back there???"
Well here it is, gang! It's the Mod-Clod Overview!
I started the build in 2012 or 2013. My best pal bought me a set of Clod axles for Christmas and the game was ON from there!
I kinda went crazy spending big $$$ over at Crawford Performance Engineering. Carbon Fibre, aluminum, all that good stuff! Even installed a couple brushless 4-pole Castle 6900 KV Motors in there! It was INSANE! But a little too much, so I dialed it back to a couple HPI Firebolts.
Anyway, watch the vid. Learn about the Mod-Clod and if you haven't already, watch the running vid, it's wicked!!! :)

Awesome little truck! I had one back in the days. Thought of getting another clod. Never heard the term driving a rc toy. Maybe playing with it, but never heard driving it. As a rc car is not a motor vehicle. To me, it’s more like playing with the rc toy not driving one.😂

You should definitely get another Clod. They're so much fun, you'll love every second of it. 👊🏼

Awesome truck! One of my all time fav. but my funding only ends up with wild dagger because I can’t afford making it to this level😁 twin brushless with lower KV would be ultimate 🤘🏼 liar...you are not a poor boy my sir🤣🤣🤣

I’m gonna put one of those motors in my wife’s Pumpkin build. Those carbon fiber reinforced links are sweeeeeeet. The powder coating is super clean too. You are courageous for taking on a Clod mod Build without building the original yet. Impressive Bro. It almost doubles as a crawler too.

@poorboysrc 3 жыл бұрын

Oh yeah that motor is a Pumpkin would be tons of fun! Back before crawling was as big as it is now, guys were using Clod Busters to crawl with. Seems totally archaic now, but it was a "thing" back in the day... lol!

Dude... too much... lol! The original build (running 2 x Castle Sidewinder 3 esc's and Brushless motors) ran up around $1400! It was a passion project though and I would do it again in a minute! Such a fun, unique truck. 😄

Been looking at these race clods recently. Your chassis is a Predator. Basically the updated Terminator with dual battery capability. Very nice build.

The Clodbuster is one of the funnest rc trucks to modify. Your rig looks freakin awesome bud! Would have loved to see that truck run with the brushless set up.

Nice, very random question. What would be the utter most cheapest motor and esc combo, that could get a car going over 60km/h with i think is about 35mph, all my rc cars are brushed. Love the channel

@poorboysrc 3 жыл бұрын

As far as I know the cheapest option out there would be one of these: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f7uqprWexN2wZIk.html It's brushless and the esc's are hit-or-miss, but it's dirt-cheap and with proper gearing you should be able to hit 60. 🤙

@poorboysrc 3 жыл бұрын

@@Thomas_Smaling yeah those 15T's will end up burning up the stock Tamiya esc. The Hobbywing 880 will be a great fit. Otherwise you could run two Hobbywing 1060's, one for each motor. They're so cheap, it's a viable option!

I was wondering if you are aware that Tamiya has released a limited edition Clod Buster? It is blue and gray. It appears that it is only a North American release. Thoughts?

Yeah most definitely! I do love the color scheme of it, but I've got a couple Clods already and figured I'd save my $$$ for another kit. Cheers for the heads up! 🍻

@@poorboysrc Yes, Clod Buster kits are expensive. Plus if you already have two than you probably do not need one more.
