BUILDING A DRIFT MCLAREN | PT6

Well damn, I didn't expect a MM video to make me tear up at 2:18 in the morning. Loved watching this build its been so good

I love the sincerity at the end... Thank you editors for leaving that in!

The world needs more cool dudes like Mad Mike !

I understand it feels like you're letting your son down not going with him to his races but I can assure you he's more motivated than ever when he sees his father thrive and succeed. You're a bloody legend, he knows that, and there's no doubt in my mind you're his biggest role model. He's proud of you for still following your dreams when you could've easily taken a step back at this point.

I was lucky to have five minutes with Mike and his family on the K&N stand at Goodwood on the thursday. Hes such a genuine normal guy thats mad on cars just like we all are. You certainly inspire me Mike to get in the garage build my car and then go as hard as I can on the track. Thank you Mike 👍

Hey Mike. Thank you for the realness and raw emotion you chose to share in this video. I doubt that is easy to put out to the world. Who knows how many people you have helped over the years. As a 40yo kiwi bloke that had FURSTY poster from the centerfold of I think 4s and rotor magazine on my bedroom wall until the paper gave out.. Your content that you have put out especially recently is absolutely top notch. The example you set in seemingly every interaction be it a fan family or friend paired with the pure infectious joy that you express piles tears on top of the eargasms any sane person encounters when they hear a rotor. My mission in the next 12 months is to shake your hand and see you in action. #ROTANGCLAN

That ending cut deep. There we all were enjoying an absolute mad build, to having our eyes opened to what it costs personally! Huge love & respect Mike 🫡 do everyone proud!

Honoured to make a small cameo in this film and that ride was one of the highlights of the year. Congrats to Mike, Dean and the whole Madlab/Lanzante family from us all at TopGear! 🤙🏻

Awesome work on the car Mike and the whole team! It looks like a handful, but in a fun way. P.S. right in the fkcin feels at the end! Keep up the good work 😎

Nah, you got me tearing up at the end like that. It’s your commitment that got him there, he see where commitment gets you & will succeed for it. You’ll see Linc become World Champ one day.

It was great seeing you at Goodwood! Definitely the highlight of this years edition! Well done en hope to see you next year again! 😎🔥

The love that us fans have for you will always be meanifngul to the journey, but nothing compares to the love and support of a fmily. Linc is in great hands and gets to live a great life because of the sacrifices you make. That understanding of a bond is irreplaceable.

I am lucky to have spent some time with Mike and his team prior and after goodwood (hey Isaac, you said you'd be looking for my comment! :D) and I have to say they are the most genuine guys that my job has allowed me to meet, what you see on camera is who they all are in real life, well done guys, great video, and as I said many times, congratulations on the incredible build and all you deserved success!

Best car project series, hands down. You and your family have put nz on the map. And will pave the way for future generations of kiwis to dream big.

You're a fricking Legend Mike! I built rotary RX3's and RX2's on a tiny budget in the 90's. So proud that you have taken these amazing rotary motors to highest of heights.

Now that's dedication to his craft. His pain for not being able to take his son due to the commitment is clear to see. HUGE respect!

We live and breath (much less exciting) cars in my family. My eldest son introduced me to your channel a few weeks back. Of course, the content is fantastic, but you and your crew and family are what makes watching you so special Mike. Keep it up brother. PS: Saw the car at Goodwood and chatted with a chap from Lanzante. Incredible!

Incredible build. Have enjoyed watching your hard work lead to success since our first video together in 2006. Thanks for the sneak peak back in June and thanks for the kick up the bum to make my Goodwood trip happen. Was an incredible experience.

You are a big inspiration to many.... and your love of your family is clear to see. Epic build it's nice to see a build reather than a off the shelf part bolt on

What a machine this piece of sideways art is ! 🙏🏻👍🏻😉👏👏👏
