Hello Clod fans!
I decide to write here about my most beloved RC car I ever have. The Clod was one of the "dream car" from my first time I met the RC car world in 1991. I live in Prague - Czech rep. so here in those days was absolutely impossible to get something like Tamiya car model at all. So after revolution in 1989 when I saw the Tamiya catalogue in 1991, that wa something like shine from the black sky, and I immediatelly bought it and spent days and days with walkman dived in this "bible"... So it's now auite long time, I had managed many car models, also built my completely own projects (including own geargoxes and own calculated and machined gears in these gearboxes) to all completely sold and just start to go to those feelings of that days I dreamed only... The Clod is for me now something really like realized child's dream. So, let me introduce my stock Clod, which should remain all this I wrote:
I start with Super Clod Buster, ordered in Germany, cause still here in Czech are not so much funs to this wonderfull US category. Here arrives the "treasure" with some extras, like black parts etc.:
I decide to make a good documentation, cause I love the Tamiya boxes at all
:
I start to build with nice feel in the start of summer 2015. Was nice day for me!:
...and the moment I mount the HUGE wheel was great! I said just "IT'S SO BIG" :-D When you haven't long time any other car model, it is so!
I made also video of whole build process:
