  • Happy I was able to help you get this one tuned and iron out the bugs. Dyno time coming soon!

    Ice-T! I watched Rich and his crew build this car as it was released. It was such a delightful departure from his Tesla rebuilds. Honestly I just loved to read the hate in the comments from the Tesla community 😂 This really is a fantastic build. Can’t wait to see what you can do to make this project better.

    I'm just so impressed how well the apprentice did with that welding for dummies book.
  • I like the tuner guy. He explained the situation and specifics of what he was trying to do.
  • *V8 in Tesla, nobody panics- *Removes battery from P1, everyone loses their minds.

    "Nobody makes cowl hoods for Teslas." I have the feeling that Freddy is going to change that... 😁😎🤟
  • @PaulEaklor
    I am still pissed that the Netflix series Rust to Riches said they "made the first v8 converted Tesla." This one has been around for YEARS and those posers couldn't even get the electronics to work ... like at all.

    After Rich's ICE-T build series videos, and after it went to SEMA (and met film star 😉), I thought ICE-T was a solid unit. I guess there was a lot more going on behind the camera. I will say one thing: Joshua's aluminum welds when the chassis was filleted were first rate! They were amazing! Anyway, I'm glad to see ICE-T is going to be tuned and have the kinks all worked out! 🙂
  • @Cloxxki
    The double K swap saves the trouble of that transmission tunnel, good call.
  • @aj383
    Saw the thumbnail, instantly recognized ICE-T! It's always fun seeing these project cars get passed around YouTube...
  • @Coltwins
    For all of Rich's shenanigans he and his team bolt together a quality car
  • @TheRealAlpha2
    Yay! Ice-T is getting some love and attention. Can't wait to see where it goes from here. Good to see more of Will and Edwin's Florida adventure series cross pollination.
  • @jamesd.3847
    I see Will and Edward from Grind Hard Plumbing hanging around in the back ground. That's awesome!
  • @cloudyview
    Rich and his team did such a great job on Ice T. Freaking fantastic build
  • @dan725
    Desmond is AWESOME! He’s a walking encyclopedia of anything tuning!! That part was my favorite part of this highly-entertaining video! Freddie has a knack of finding supremely talented people!

    Don’t worry. If that’s the wrong coolant you’ll know very soon by the leaking from the breakdown of all your seals. Former Bonneville dexcool owner.
  • @stevemonkey6666
    I think putting the car on a lift and forgetting about it is really the most on-point for your channel 😊
  • @sweetsmo
    Oh boy. Love the videos bro. Been here since the vantage which I might add I adore. Good luck with p1. Looking forward to the next episode. Also loving the r8.
