MY MCLAREN 720 GTR ENGINE FAILED … *FIRST ATTEMPTED START*

[@Lotsaslots6747]

Mike sure explains every aspect of his repair work so anyone can understand.

[@mahs2psytrance]

I was thinking exactly this, Mike was an incredible addiction to the channel, we just need Damond to stay more with Mike to better understand all the cars

[@keenanrhoads2533]

And to think he’s not a master tech and never worked on one before is crazy

[@gatorrcgames]

Yeah this channel changed a lot. Damon got lazy and just pushed the camera to Mike

[@kings3803]

You gotta admit it Garrett was pretty accurate with those sounds

[@prince7p268]

Fr bro those sounds he made was crrazy😂😂

[@ThePizzaman74]

He was so accurate. It’s like a whip and thunder at the same time. I go back to the reveal video of the car sometimes, the one after the fire rebuild, just to hear the sound of it. It’s like other worldly.

[@jevonne8160]

mike doesn't need experience of working on mclarens because he understands the basics of being a mecanhic and thats all the knowledge he used and got the car running, the expertise of a certified mclaren comes in with the suspension issue

Please send Dave home they might have more working cars

[@GLC-Strikers]

Mike , it is a pleasure watching you work and explain your thought process and work around so many challenges with that highly modified 720s. You are a natural in front of the camera. When you can teach a subject and reach people like you do , that is a special skill set. Thanks dude.

You guys should do a collection update video, it’s kinda hard to keep track off what cars you guys own since your constantly buying and selling them.

[@jamalfadesemall9275]

They really need a Need For Speed DDE Family Edition game my guy, and the ability to own all of their cars in the next GTA 6. That's a way to really make a mark and show all the builds and the game would become a collector's item in years to come. They have so many sponsors and creators that could be included in a Themed driving game that it is stupid not to do it. Imagine pulling up to Gintani and getting your development components, AI 13 Wheels, and crazy race-themed builds from Mike and Tim in the game. the possibilities are really infinite.
