I work at a hobby shop, and had the privilege of repairing one of these today. With the four-wheel steering, it's possibly the weirdest handling vehicle I've ever driven.
I’m lucky enough to own one of these. Been thinking bout if a lot lately as I just got a 3D printer. Gonna get it out and do the mods I never was able to do before. Slightly longer wheel base, and change the lighting kit to modern LEDs. Thanks for reminding me of the fun I had all those years ago!
Awesome video bro. The clod buster was the first hobby rc I seen when I was a kid. My brothers friend was the one who had it. I remember sitting there looking at it all amazed. 👍👍😎👍👍
Oooh, you got the chrome wheels! 👍 Ive still got the whites on mine. I never shouldve sold the body; now I have an old, beat up Kyosho Big Brute body on it. It was red metal flake, just like this. I sold it because I was usimg my Kyosho 1/9 4Runner body on it; and I never thought Id get the 4runner chassis going again, so thats why I sold the clod body. Now I have the 4runner going again; so I needed the body for that. But the Big Brute body doesnt look too bad on there. Awesome Clod Buster and video!
STEVO D 313 the cold buster is today’s t-maxx not the x maxx. The clod buster started it all. And so did the maxx trucks that was the t maxx then the e maxx..
I remember seeing a clod in the window of my local model shop 30 years ago I've just perched a original mardave marauder had one as a kid someone stole it can't wait bring back good memories.
2nd time I've watched it today. Are you running duel Sport Tuned motors? I did resurrect my Super Clod after watching this the 1st time. Taking it out tomorrow 👍👍
I can only provide that information in cm, because inch is medieval. It's 380mm wide, around 34cm high, wheelbase is around 27,5cm and the overall length is around 45-48cm
The Clodbuster, the true king of RC monster trucks. I don’t think anybody can argue with that.
And Kyosho USA 1
I come back to this video every now and then. Great music, great truck. Almost feels like an 80's or 90's ad for the Clodbuster.
Thanks! im glad u liked.
Best ever footage of the suspension working on an O.G. Clod. Thank you.

Tamiya nailed this truck in the 80s and still to this day great looking monster truck I own 3.
Also it’s spelled Tamiya🙄

What a legend! I begged for this for years when I was a kid. I eventually did get it for christmas! Loved it. The only downside was battery life.
Batteries and electronics have come a long way!
The clod was thy...THY most badass rc of its time. Man this brings back memories....nice video! 👌
Cool truck! Nice to see it running in the dirt where it should run!!

I was a kid in the 80s and had a blackfoot. Couldn't afford the clodbuster which cost 3x more, but the clodbuster was the king of RC trucks back then.

2nd time I've watched it today. Are you running duel Sport Tuned motors? I did resurrect my Super Clod after watching this the 1st time. Taking it out tomorrow 👍👍
Yes, im running dual sport tuned Motors with Hobbywing Quicrun WP 860 esc, runs great with 3s lipo. Thanks for watching!
Does this have less of a stock speed than a Lunchbox?
Nice clod!!! Is this running stock?
Thanks! Running stock Motors, Hobbywing Quicrun WP 860 esc with 3s lipo.
but it crawl?
How big is a ClodBuster anyway? (In inches)
I can only provide that information in cm, because inch is medieval.
It's 380mm wide, around 34cm high, wheelbase is around 27,5cm and the overall length is around 45-48cm
Are you using the stock 540 motors?
tamiya sport tuned motors
Is this stock? Is it this fast stock
i run Hobbywing Quicrun WP 860 esc and 3s lipo
I’m not a fan of this Rc vehicle that’s why I have a fish but not a pet
