Default Clodzilla 3 questions....

I just bought a lot of clods off a friend of mine. I ended up with 5 clods from him and a couple extra sets of axles. I already have a clod with the old school sassy chassis on it as well. anyways....one of the clods i bought is a clodzilla 3. Is this more of a racing chassis or would it make a decent crawler chassis? Im just curious if i should just make a custom chassis for a crawler and leave the clodzilla alone. Any help is greatly appreciated. I always wanted to get into clods....now i have a room rull.....

Anything I've seen labelled "Clodzilla" seems to have been designed with racing in mind. The suspension is designed for high speed and jumping.

I looked at one recently at a yard sale, it would have taken a lot of work ot make a crawler out of it...

Do you have any spare axles? If so, Id be interesting in buying a pair from you, that way youd have a little cash for your project.

A few years back I had a Zilla 3 with the cantilevers on it and it had darn good wheel travel an entry level racer. I believe you can still get them for about sixty bucks from ESP.
