[CertifiedMike]

Cool, I wish i could have an ATV but i don't have the room to run one where i live but i had this when i was 7.

A 2 stroke kid sized dirt bike back in 2007 unfortunately i didn't run it much also this was with my Grandad. He and my Granny live with me nowadays.

I don't this pic on any wall in my house but we have a few from my childhood and my step sibling's childhood. I even have a mini Mom shrine on my dresser and the wall next to it.

I've never told my folks about it. But maybe someday i'll take a pic worth putting up. I also have been playing some Far Cry 6 and stole this beauty.

I feel like this is where I should say "kids today!"
Your computer system is pretty sweet! Even on my crappy cell phone, the resolution looks great!

Looks like you got it set for some mild rap music

Well, I had a joke for that but this is a family channel.
I was somewhat concerned about a few things though.
First, being a cheap brand "Behringer", would it get along with my other pedals,
second, will it work ok with my noise gate, and third I was wondering how my range of adjustment was there?
It is a plastic body which the rest of my pedals are metal but it seems to be good quality.
No noise what so ever. I have multi delay pedal I can't use because of a very annoying strong noise I can't get rid of with my noise gate.
Finally, each frequency has a ton of range which is very impressive.
Perfect pedal, I love it.

I have a chorus pedal on the way that my bud in NYC bought me.

I should show you my desktop in a pic someday it's a nice machine built it myself almost 5 years ago. I have a steam page with several games currently i play Far Cry 6 but i've also played GTA 5 and other car games. One time i thought about maybe getting RC simulation 2.0 since they have a Clod Buster clone in it like the original 1987 version like this.

I haven't looked much about it yet but it might be fun. I also looked into getting a real one but the newer Super Clod Buster since it'd be hard to find the original '87 version also the newer one comes with a Hobbywing twin motor ESC.

I'm a vintage fan. If you WANT it to put on the shelf, ok, original. If you want to run it, the new one is the one you want anyways. Does it come with motors too?

I think it comes an ESC and 2 540 motors but i don't think it comes with a servo or radio and a 6 cell nimh or 2s lipo.

This is the one i'm thinking about getting someday if they'll still be available.

I also considered this Black edition.

Let me know which should i do.

I have ideas to outfit mine if i get one with a Spektrum SR515 receiver so if i decide to do a 4WS (Servo on axle conversion like Exocaged's Clod) setup i could. I also heard that i might have to get a 2s stick pack since standard 2s' won't fit and i might get a decent Amazon or Ecopower servo for it and finally a bearing kit. Will also swap out the Tamiya connectors for IC5's since that's the connector i use nowadays.

Cool, That almost looks like the Clod buster except in Blue when i know the first 1987 release of that Truck was advertised in Red. I was considering getting the Black one and painting it Red kind of like the original without the Chevy branding.
