commiedoor replied to Oldschooltamiya's topic in General discussions
my user name is from the aussie slang name for my 2 real life cars , holden vn commodores , one is a 1989 3.8lt v6 fitted with a powerdyne supercharger and the other is a 1990 5 lt v8 calais , we commonly call them '' commodes '' , '' dunnydoors '' and '' commiedoors '' ahh amongst other things ! lol on a side note , im commiedoor on most web sites , except for an american gun site because they wouldnt allow the '' commie '' part of the name on it as it could be associated with communism ?? -
i have a superclod , different shocks and no rear steer , and a codzilla modded to the max running a traxxas 14v twin motor esc .. its like chalk and cheese ..if i want to just run around the dirt parking lot aross the road ..the super clod is fine and fun .. but if i want to rip up the sand dunes at the beach .. nothing beats the clodzilla .. it depends on what i want to do ..
