At some point we all think we have a crazy build, then Mike enters the chat with a tubular chassis, 5 rotor, Le Mans inspired drift car sitting on steelies and we all go back to being mere mortals with some cool car. Outstanding work mate, truly, pushing it to the next level.
man when i watched this made me proud to be a kiwi you sir are one of New Zealand motorsport greats remind me of John Britten with his Britten V1000 motorcycle well done man
What an insane and top quality build, right from the ground up. Holy crap. Its a crime that this doesnt have more views, and with this video and editing format you deserve more subs too.
This is absolutely insane car! I can't think of a better way to bring a first 5 rotor to life than an imitation of the 4 rotor le mans victor car! Being a HW Collector, i saw the Madaz in store and i was like "Mad Mike's car? Like what HW did with Star Wars, the Darth Vader car? Strange". Then i realised the shape, the livery, the colours. THEN IT HIT ME, the frickin 5 rotor secret!!! I immediately bought it and i love it!
As someone that has been following since MadBul was in the early stages of life, seeing this is unreal. This year I got to see the Pikes Peak car at JCCS and I couldn't believe it. They had one of the 787's out and I got to take pictures of it and see a childhood dream car up close. I always thought to myself what would a drift version of something like that be? Now I get to see it. If you ever bring this to California. I have to be there to see and hear it.
Revival of the 787 arguably the most iconic rotary to win a race not just any race a 24 hour le mans with a twist of mad mikes speacial touch cant wait to see what mike does whiddett formula drift def has the specs to go that route if he wants or time attack with some fine tuning to suspension and tuning of the engine and cant wait to see what it puts at the wheels on the dyno
I swear I could spend 10 mins trying to line up a single small sticker and make it perfect only to let air bubbles in and be crooked, this man just eye balls an entire car's livery and sends it and it looks damn perfect lmao you're a beast, the car looks insane I love it
The thing about this achievement, that is Soo impressive, is that it's a completely brand new custom automobile, No off the shelf products tested by professionals at a massive auto manufacturer like Mazda, This vehicle does not excist anywhere else on planet earth, Imagine trying to build a car without the financial resources and huge team of people needed to design and build a Whole car, like Mazda, Toyota, Ford, Nissan and so on. I didn't think that it was even Possible! For a long time my dream car ( If I won Lotto ) was to get a Ultima Evolution from England and send it to PPRE in Whanganui and have them put a N/A PP26b in it with a Hollinger sequential 6 speed box, and Mike had his own dream car Made in real life, and his dream was better than what I could even Imagine. A True Visionary! It's as much a car, as it is a piece of drivable ART!
Bro youre truly an NZ icon!!🇳🇿 You and ppre are on a whole another level… congrats and no doubt will see more epic builds in the future!! Mad mike for priminister🤭😂👍🏾
Epic as Mbro. Yours and Tones visions are always wild. So proud of you both and it was massive to see it come together the days leading up to Summerbash. Did it again! ❤️❤️❤️🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥
I am a v8 guy. Forced induction and fancy computers got me loving 4 bangers and Rob Dahm made me a rotary fan. ITBs are one of my favorites and this 5 rotary with ITBs is definitely a sexy sound. And that chassis is even more insane. First video I’ve seen and this is and instant sub
so sweet also really cool to see how its built a lot times you just get to see a finished product and you don't really get to appreciate all the little nuisances that go into such a big project.
Have had the pleasure of seeing the 787s and 767s at the Rolex reunion at Monterey and other exhibition events on the west coast and what you done here is amazing sir. Always thinking outside the box and a page ahead of everyone… Congrats on the amazing build. Proper planning and hard work def paid off. Can’t wait to see this thing sir. Aloha. 🤙🥃🥃
Hello, I'm Robson, I live in Brazil and I like to see videos like this that shows that if you have a dream, make it come true, it's worth it, I have a chevette that I'm going to transform for drift and street ❤
It's fucking savage how much hotwheels has supported the unique areas of the automotive scene the last year or two. Ofcourse,madmike is basically the o.g of NZ repping,not to overlook the first generation of D1NZ guys,and all those kiwi hoodlums posting 4th gear Rotor and RB skids before UA-cam was widely respected. I've never been more excited to see anything on the planet like the Fursty version 2.0 😮
I cannot wait to see how you use this thing man! How epic!!! And the fact it's gonna be sold as a kit car just has me giving the ol savings account the side eye hahaha.
I feel like its almost obligatory to get a shot of you ripping donuts around the original 787B. Don't know if Mazda would ever allow it but it would be freaking legendary if it could happen. We can only hope.
Hard out Mike, an odd number of cylinders or rotors, just sounds better for some reason. Growing up, my parents had bikes, 70's Triumphs and Harley's, but my favourite sounding bike still is the 70's Triumph Trident, it's a triple, same as (until now), the 3 rotor was always my favourite. The 5 rotor though, damn.... It's the 3 rotors dirty tougher uncle. Sounds ballsy brother.
Your truly a diamond in the rough within the car industry. Loved seeing you roll through Mercer when I was living down there. Mad respect for Mad Mike 🙌
With all the crazy shit that's in that car, I'm a little sad that the trombone style intake from the 787b didn't make it into that thing. Very awesome though!
What an absolutely beautiful machine absolutely sounds amazing and omg the video of the team well done and always been a big fan of yours go Mad Mike you're a beast of a drifter
Reminds me of the old flat track races I used to go to as a kid. That sound of the rotax. I was like what is this which craft I’m hearing. Rotor with a super trap is probably the sweetest sounding motor of all time
How epic! Its awesome to see the OG still innovating and pushing the limits! Can't wait to see you shred in it!
You know me dude, Rotary for Life 🤘🏽
If Mike really does sell this body/frame as a kit then you need one in your garage!
@robdahm what’s the 12 rotor going in once it’s operational 😂
@@lilshankzz2413 Worlds first rotary powered monster truck perhaps? 🧐
Eeereereeeeeeeeeeeeeereeeeeeeeeer
The world needs a GROUP B styled drift series with an anything goes for engineering aspect
Agree! I do this at SummerBASH, bring what ya got, as wild as it gets 🤘🏽
Buttt with limited top speed across the entire group Throw in some TIME ATTACK (unlimited aero ) . ... . . Or every car gets standardized Power plants
How this only has 28k views is beyond me! 😮 we need to blow this man’s channel up!
Because most people don't like rosaries, and most people are wrong
Because the car didn’t move under its own power let alone drift.
The sound of a rotary...Can't be replicated. A nice sounding rotarty in an amazing build...has to be respected ❤👍💪🔥
At some point we all think we have a crazy build, then Mike enters the chat with a tubular chassis, 5 rotor, Le Mans inspired drift car sitting on steelies and we all go back to being mere mortals with some cool car. Outstanding work mate, truly, pushing it to the next level.
The world demands a video of a flyby.
The world needs the sound!
man when i watched this made me proud to be a kiwi you sir are one of New Zealand motorsport greats remind me of John Britten with his Britten V1000 motorcycle
well done man
Aotearoa hard! 👊😎
Wow thanks 🤘🏽
God I love rotarys
Mike you truly love your modgies nice version of them on the 5 rotor and remember that if it ain't a rotor then it's not a motor 😂
Well said @ deanozdirect
A-freaking-men🤝🏼
Rotors deserve turbos thats the saying isn’t it
What an insane and top quality build, right from the ground up. Holy crap.

Was a fun way to reveal this build and have it released as a Hot Wheels a month early 🤘🏽

I know this is not what the video is about, but this should shut all the haters and fan boys up whinging about the other 5-Rotor build.

Mad Mike, helping take drifting to the next level! Love to see it
Always trying to level up our sport and I have some wild visions of what to do with this creation 👌🏽

Insane. I feel honored to have seen this in concept phase. Can’t wait to hear it in person!
aaayyyyoooo vinegar in the borough

You and ppre are on a whole another level… congrats and no doubt will see more epic builds in the future!! Mad mike for priminister🤭😂👍🏾

I never comment on a video, but this thing is for real the most absurd and coolest car ever made..
Hard work pays off !!! Bring on the crown range 2.0 !!!!
Epic as Mbro. Yours and Tones visions are always wild. So proud of you both and it was massive to see it come together the days leading up to Summerbash. Did it again! ❤️❤️❤️🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥
Just when I think there's no way to top the last build, you go and build this! Fn awesome 😎
Hell Yeah🤘🏽
Absolutely superb international Kiwiness. Bring on the long-format movie of the gestation of this world-class machine
Tears of joy is all I can say! Glad to see part of the fab process and the attention to detail, it looks and sounds crazy, full orchestra!
SO sick bro!! I reember you showing me the render so long ago and knew it would come out insane! You never fail brother! LOVE IT!
Madmike the best always come with the best build...totally the best
I love the sound of all rotary engines 😮
This is absolutely epic. Can’t wait to see it hit the track
I am a v8 guy. Forced induction and fancy computers got me loving 4 bangers and Rob Dahm made me a rotary fan. ITBs are one of my favorites and this 5 rotary with ITBs is definitely a sexy sound. And that chassis is even more insane. First video I’ve seen and this is and instant sub
Damn mike ,i luv ur storys,all about u,son,fruends,ur champions drifts,awsome

That feeling of having a vision and seeing it through is incomparable.

Loving the long form videos. Great to see more insight into the epic stuff you do. Can't wait to see you shred in this masterpiece 👌
so sweet also really cool to see how its built a lot times you just get to see a finished product and you don't really get to appreciate all the little nuisances that go into such a big project.

Absolutely loving the regular uploads brother bloody legend
Good to go bro zip ties straight mad
That angle is insane absolute maddness. The car is stunning, and the rotary sounds wicked cant wait to see this thing shred
Stoked us kiwis get to see this thing rip! The mx5 turbo set up you had for the states would have been cool to see and hear in person 😀
What a car best sounding rotary yet 🤘🏼 cruising through big w today Christmas shopping and came across the hot wheels of this for $2 winning 🤙🏼
Perfect!
The OG was so excited to fire it up every time, gotta love it.
Platforms giving money directly to athletes rather than executives is such an upgrade.
1 view 3 likes? Sweet. I love your builds dude, setting standards.
Best in the business behind the camera as well ❤️
Absolute madness. Great production on this video too.
Thanks! We’re bring much more BTS action of our lives and projects to this channel now 👌🏽
Wow dats the wildest RACECAR build i ve seen this year ❤🕊️🎶
The body almost looks like it would be mid-engined. What an incredible project. It sound’s intoxicating 🤘🔥
This is what dreams are made of. Such a cool build. Very inspiring that anything is possible.
Great to see your enthusiasm for the project- and great to see the appreciation from another ‘Rotorhead’. Hertlife.
I really wish Mazda would build another Furai and let Mad Mike do cool stuff with it.
Now that's a great idea 💡😮
Mazda's Rules baby!!! Even I only had old 90's Mazda 323 Interplay, but it's whole best of the best 90's car..
NOW THAT'S A MAD RIDE, well done mike. can't wait to see that masterpiece in action.
i cant emphasize this any clearer, THIS IS SICK
😂👌🏽
I just want to say you’re visionary of different level! Much respect and love for your builds!
As Mad as it gets. Till the next one. Glad we have you, Mike. ❤
awesome dude! keep it up
That no muffler start got my man juices flowing!
Can't wait to see this build rips the track. 🎉
i love this . this is amazing wild .. for some reason i was expecting it to have a variable length intake/ telescopic however you call it
The coolest build I’ve ever seen! Congrats Mate! Sounds incredible
Hold up... would you be selling a tube frame with suspension, etc, with the kit? Just ready for any suitable engine.
That would be even more sick 😮
Hello, I'm Robson, I live in Brazil and I like to see videos like this that shows that if you have a dream, make it come true, it's worth it, I have a chevette that I'm going to transform for drift and street ❤
That car is nuts
Chassis is a work of art, every angle!
It's fucking savage how much hotwheels has supported the unique areas of the automotive scene the last year or two. Ofcourse,madmike is basically the o.g of NZ repping,not to overlook the first generation of D1NZ guys,and all those kiwi hoodlums posting 4th gear Rotor and RB skids before UA-cam was widely respected.

Was such a great event ,huge turnout of amazing cars 👍
You're literally living out my dreams Mike 👍 love it
This is the raddest car ever made and I need one!!!! Great job
23:47 kids like” no dad I want to hear that thaaaang!!!”🤣🤣😎🤘🏻❤️
Bro that's crazy
Unbelievable
UnbelievaBUL! 😂👌🏽
I cannot wait to see how you use this thing man! How epic!!! And the fact it's gonna be sold as a kit car just has me giving the ol savings account the side eye hahaha.
I feel like its almost obligatory to get a shot of you ripping donuts around the original 787B. Don't know if Mazda would ever allow it but it would be freaking legendary if it could happen. We can only hope.
Madness I love it 😊
This why you are called MADMIKE. aint no one doing it like u g 🙏
Una Joya de la Ingeniería ...
La mejor Banda de la Historia que sonido
That 5 rotor sounded sick asf and bad asf!!!! I bet it’s insane as hell!!! 👍
This is a F...G Piece or art😮drifting all the way from japan to aotearoa born and raised like the missing part of the human being😊
Hard out Mike, an odd number of cylinders or rotors, just sounds better for some reason.

ua-cam.com/video/wTk-Uvkq-J8/v-deo.htmlsi=ZlZd4PKZrurngLMP
They sound really good with a better exhaust.
Your truly a diamond in the rough within the car industry.
Loved seeing you roll through Mercer when I was living down there. Mad respect for Mad Mike 🙌
Just chasing dreams full throttle ✊🏽🤪🤘🏽
With all the crazy shit that's in that car, I'm a little sad that the trombone style intake from the 787b didn't make it into that thing.
Very awesome though!
Pikes peak rendition here we come, in memory of the great Ken Block 💪
i am totsly blown away and in love with this beauty! insane !
ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!! Would love to see a shoot with this and Rob Dahm's AWD 4 Rotor!!!
The responses in those engines are just fire
Wow, just wow! That is epic! A thumbs up for the post seems insufficient, when are they gonna let us give it a big old heart ❤❤😍😍💕💕
Next level stuff. SO awesome you could build this. DREAM.BUILD.RACE
Mad how I'm watching this and the Hotwheels is on the wall next to me.
787B was always my favorite sounding car
What an absolutely beautiful machine absolutely sounds amazing and omg the video of the team well done and always been a big fan of yours go Mad Mike you're a beast of a drifter
with muffler was nice no? anyways, banger of a build. epic beyond words. can' wait to see more footage of it tearing up the track 👍
It was nicer inside the shop as the straight pipes just rattle the whole building 😂
I have an RS3. This thing sounds mad insane, like my DXHA decided it wanted to rev like 2 or 3 times as high. Congrats! Looks and sounds so good!
Wow now that is an engine that runs amazing what a wicked tuner and builder.
Reminds me of the old flat track races I used to go to as a kid. That sound of the rotax. I was like what is this which craft I’m hearing. Rotor with a super trap is probably the sweetest sounding motor of all time
Unreaaal, what a machine man, congrats to all of you guys on this one 🎉
i can't wait to see this at 2024 Goodwood festival of Speed
I love the casual yet quick Adam LZMFG shout out with the shirt 😂😂👌🏻
It’s incredible 🤪
This is why I want to build a rotary, the mad wizard and @RobDahm always build crazy stuff!
