Man… I felt the pain when we blew up the lemons BMW engine our first race… I can’t even imagine this. Idk how you hold your composure Freddy!

Ahhhh. So nice to see Tavarish back in his element. On a mission to fix really cool, really broken stuff. You look good dude. Hope you’re feeling good and can find a pace that really allows you to do what you love without sacrificing your health. Best of luck with everything, and thanks for still making videos. Was happy to see this one pop up.

Kevin is a absolute gem...love his attitude and charisma. Bring him back Freddie!

I love how you don't get upset AT ALL. Is that confidence that you know you can just rebuild and keep going? Congratulations on the P1. It is going to be an amazing adventure.

Great to have you back and I also just wanted to say you are an absolute legend for letting Matt rebuild his Porsche in your shop.

Damon is like: Welcome to the club

Shout out to all of Tavarish's friends who spend time with him to help him get through the rough times. Awesome video can't wait for more!

I don’t know how Tavarish was so calm like that’s heart wrenching

We need to see Kevin on the channel more often. He seems like a genuinely nice guy while being very honest and very entertaining

21:32 0.25x speed and you will see the yellow P1!

I respect your honesty, not blaming McLaren reliability like others do, as obviously (bad?) tune pushed the engine over the edge.

aw man, so sorry, this must be heartbreaking after you put so much time and love into it. Cant wait to see the rebuild though :) all the best!

The P1 has to be the worse kept secret EVER 😂

Freddy it has been amazing to see you back making content. I felt like a large part of KZfaq has been missing and I think I can speak for everyone when I say that. Wrench everyday

I can't believe how happy this man even when his pride and joy is pretty much fucked up! you are truly inspirational brother so glad to see your back and doing what you loved

You got the flood P1?! Could not have gone to any one better! Cant wait to see what you do with it! Glad ur back!!

Tavarish we all have missed you and thank you for getting back on KZfaq. I pray that you are mentally and physically doing ok. God only know what your going through and I hope your ok. I can understand maybe a little going threw a divorce as we speak and I love my wife soon to be x more then life itself. My kids are suffering also. This sucks

Surprised that the engine had less than 100 HP headroom. Impressive engineering for an engine to be designed to be just enough to survive reliably.

Your patience, demeanour and general can-do positive attitude is incredible! Wishing you ALL the best

I’m hurting for you brother. Thanks for taking it like a champ and turning it into a teachable moment for everyone. Best of luck, honestly.

My biggest fear when driving my rebuilt mclaren...

Freddie is handling this like a champ. I know it sucks but all things considered he's done a great job staying optimistic

Rod bearing: twisted up like a pretzel Taverish: it doesnt look terrible

Really sorry to hear about the engine, but glad to hear that you most likely will repair it because its one of the most beautiful Mclarens out there. And I look forward to see what you will have next!

Time for the first LS swapped McLaren 675LT 👍🏻

Your mood about the whole incident is just amazing I love your upbeat demeanor on the prospect of what you'll have to do to restore the car to drive again...hats off

I'm a new subscriber. Jumped on with the P1 rebuild and have only watched a few posts but allready I'm rooting first you. This going bang and taking on the P1 has put a lot on your plate but whoever is guiding your mental health is doing a great job. Your taking it all in your stride and are a very capable and strong fellow. Good luck with these Mclarens.

Hope all is well man. Appreciate the hard work you put in your videos.

I feel you bro. I’m glad to see you back

It's nice to hear Ricardo did a good job with the engine. My uncle is one of the lead engineers in the Gearbox department. Used to be all over the world testing different projects.

About 15 years ago I bought a crashed Porsche Boxter. It was mainly bodywork, but the bottom of the engine had skidded across the tarmac and ripped the bottom of the case out. Me, my dad and my uncle spent 4 years rebuilding it, and it was basically better than new when we were finished. However, one of the skills that the three of us was lacking was engine rebuild, so we opted for buying a complete replacement engine instead. The seller was adamant that the engine was totally overhauled and showed reciets as evidence. Six days after we got the car finished, the exact same thing as Tavarish' engine happened. A teardown of the engine by a certified Porsche mechanic revealed that the engine was totally shot even before it threw a rod through the crank case. The mechanic estimated that the engine hadn't had a decent service for the last 100K miles and was absolutely not rebult at any time.

Have fun with that dude, I can’t wait to follow the rebuild. Not sure about other people, but I personally love it when you talk normally rather than try to be funny.

I had the same thing happen to my 2001 trans am and I was absolutely devestated…. I can’t imagine it happening to that caliber of car. I’m sorry man. And mannnn am I amazed how well you are taking it.

Oh boy I’m so sorry i followed your journey with this car so can understand your pain but you took it very well😢 can’t wait to see the next version keep on posting love your content

That you're not crying the entire time is amazing to me.

Damn he just teased P1 at the very last second. So excited for you man!!!!!!!

WOW.. Kevin has some real charisma and is good on camera too! Looking forward to future episodes. And don’t get me wrong, having this happen to your multi hundred thousand dollar car is no joke. But I’m happy it happened to you, so it gets build beter.. no, for the awesome content we as a viewer get to consume. Thanks for being so positive and awesome all the time! 💪🏼

I'm pretty impressed how excited you are looking at the hole 😄 If it happens to me, I would sit in the corner and cry in tears

Absolutely Heart Wrenching, and a very important lesson for us on over loading the power.

Very sneaky single frame in there right at the end Tav! (Pro-tip for those who do not know: On PC at least, you can pause the video and use the comma and period keys to go frame-by-frame back and forth.)

Awesome to see you back, gotta say you and Matt together are "the dream team" just seems your personalities mesh together perfectly in front of the camera, as far as the McLaren goes oh well you have 34 other cars right! looking forward to see some of the projects underway getting completed.

Keep sharing your valuable tips, learning a lot from you. Thanks.

Hurts to see but it will be awesome to see it back on the road with more reliability 🧡 Damon seems like such a nice guy he's so passionate about the stuff he does I'm hyped to see you two working together 🧡

Really sucks that this happened. But I'm glad you're still in good spirits. You'll definitely fix it bro! If you end up getting a salvaged engine I think you should take it apart and rebuild it yourself. I think it would be great content

The lesson here is that a finely tuned thoroughbred engine is designed to be as light as it can be and just strong enough for the power it achieves, you cannot just wack to huge turbo's on it like it's some cast iron American boat anchor and floor it. Here endeth the lesson ;) great content though and look forward to watching the rebuild.

You are the warranty! Total bummer, but full confidence you get this back together. Looking forward to the re-rebuild.

Great to have you Back Freddie , loving the work your doing helping out fellow Britt Matt , my money would be on a Rod Bolt failure , as you said , no oil failure , nothing got hot , just an instant Rod failure , most likely the bolts

Very early in my automotive days, I had a Chevy small block that threw a rod. That engine kept going for another 50 miles, almost got me home. But out of that experience I learned coolant and engine oil do mix. It's not pretty but they do mix.

Tavarish is such a nice man. Blew his motor but still kept high spirits

dude. i dont know how u can still have a smile on youre face.i would have been so depressed if something like this happened to me. hope u get it running again in the near future. goodluck.

KEVIN has a dynamite personality. What a character! Can't wait to see more of him in this project.

I know everyone else has been saying it but so glad to see you back here! I'm also hoping all is well with you and that things continue to get better. KZfaq is definitely a better place when a Tavarish video releases for sure!

Welcome back, I missed your videos

Cant believe you got the flooded p1 cant wait to see if rebuilding and how turns out

Freddie, you're just crazy my man! I love it and I hope you continue to give us great content. I've been a subscriber since the truck build and I hope everything good comes your way.

Glad to see you posting again

Freddie, I really appreciate your attitude on this whole debacle. A lot of people would be crying and whining, "Oh, poor me, my car is ruined." Instead you smile, make the plans, maybe tighten your belt a little bit, and begin the reconstruction. It puts me in mind of something my mother-in-law once said: "A problem that can be fixed with money isn't a real problem."

We are so happy to have you back. I hope your feeling better. We all struggle pal you just got to get back up. Your mental health is more important than these videos. Thank you.

you should team up with Eric over at "I do cars" and do an engine teardown video with him. It would be epic.

I know I’m a little late to the party, but it’s F’N GREAT to see you again man. We all love you and got your back!

you been working out tavarish looking good!

So glad to see you back and posting. Hope your doing well and everything will turn out ok I'm sure of that. Keep your head up and take it one day at a time.

I want to thank you Tavarish for your videos. I've learned a lot, albeit at your expense. I've also learned, from this video in particular, that not all vehicles with a lot of power might have been designed to handle that power.

I’ve got a feeling there might be a vid in 2 years called what actually happens when you explode a $2,000,000 McLaren P1… love the vids keep up the great work.

Time to see gintani and get the DDE spec motor!!!!

Great to have you back my man. I really love your contents. I got excited that you're featured in Mat's Porsche. Hope to see more videos like this. Kinda miss Jared too. Much love from the Philippines ❤❤❤

The Hog Rider is a fast ground troop with medium hit points, low damage, and the ability to jump over enemy Walls. He is unlocked at level 2 Dark Barracks. The Hog Rider (person) is a bare-chested dark-skinned man holding a hammer. He has a Mohawk, wears a brown leather loincloth, a red belt, and a pair of leather sandals, as well as two large golden wristbands and a gold earring. His ride is a large hog, about half his height. It has a brown leather bridle looped around its tusks, which in turn is held by the Hog Rider. Hog Riders prioritize defensive structures above all other targets, and will bypass all other types of enemy buildings and troops while any defenses remain on the battlefield. This is true even if they are under attack by enemy Clan Castle troops, heroes or Skeleton Trap skeletons. Note that like all troops that prioritize defenses, Hog Riders do not consider the Clan Castle to be a defense regardless of whether or not it contains enemy troops, but do consider the defending Grand Warden and the activated Town Hall weapon (if any) to be defensive buildings. Once all defenses are destroyed, Hog Riders become like any other troop with no preferred target; they will attack the nearest building to them regardless of type, and will turn and attack enemy units if they become aware of any nearby and can fight back against them. He can be used to jump over any level Walls, rendering them ineffective against Hog Riders. Note that while this allows Hog Riders free access to what lies behind the Walls, it does not open up gaps for other troops to move through. If the Hog Riders need the support of other ground troops, you will still need to deploy Wall Breakers, a Jump Spell, or Earthquake Spells in order to assist them. Hog Riders can be used en masse, i.e. a "Hog Rider Rush", without requiring any Wall Breakers to break Walls. However, such a strategy sports weaknesses against defending Clan Castle troops, Heroes, Giant Bombs, and Skeleton Traps, a problem which only becomes more prominent at higher levels. At Town Hall 10 and above, Hog Riders can be combined with Miners in a strategy known as Hog Miner or Hybrid. Both troops are able to bypass Walls innately, but Miners do not have a preferential target, allowing them to cover for Hog Riders by dealing with defending Heroes and Skeleton Traps. The combination also has weaknesses against flying Clan Castle troops, as neither are able to target air. At lower levels, Hog Riders are quite capable of acting as distracting troops like Giants; they have nearly as much health as a similar-level Giant, move twice as fast, and do considerably more damage. They work well with the Healing Spell when you group several of them together. A good tactic for using Healing Spells is to place them strategically on a cluster of defenses (at least about 3 or more) and also deploy them shortly before the Hog Riders arrive in the area, deploy them in front of the Hog Riders. This is so that the Hog Riders get the most value out of the Healing Spell, and destroy the defenses without losing too much HP. Spots where Giant Bombs or Bomb Towers are/may be should be given special attention when deploying Healing Spells. Hogs of the same level as the Giant Bomb will survive a single Giant Bomb, but they're helpless against a pair of Giant Bombs even with a Healing Spell. Heal them after they've gone through a Giant Bomb blast. The Hog Rider is one of the best troop types for drawing out Clan Castle troops, as it can avoid Walls to penetrate deep enough to reach centrally-placed Clan Castles (and enough health to not die before it gets there). Deploy one or a few to trigger the Clan Castle troops, then lure the reinforcement troops to the corner side, and deploy multiple Archers or Wizards to slaughter them, and then deploy the remainder of your Hog Riders. This strategy is especially effective during Clan War raids. However, Skeletons from the Skeleton Trap and Heroes can also easily kill the Hog Riders, as they can only target defenses, so make sure to have some troops that target anything, such as Wizards, which can swipe out the Skeletons. Hog Riders don't target air so flying Clan Castle troops, especially Dragons, can be a big threat. Most mass Hog Rider strategies in Clan Wars require that the Clan Castle troops be killed first by luring. Bring other troops in addition to Hog Riders, such as Wizards, to deal with enemy Clan Castle troops and clean up the base. Poison Spells can be used to kill almost any enemy Clan Castle troop, but beware as the troops will attempt to flee the poison. If the Poison Spells are decently leveled, and you effectively keep the Clan Castle troops from escaping the Poison Spell with distracting troops, they can eliminate almost any troop. They can also be used to dispense of those pesky Skeletons risen from the Skeleton Traps. Time is also a factor to consider. With only 3 minutes in an attack, it is essential to make sure that this whole process and the remainder of the attack is done as quickly as possible to avoid running out of time. Defensive Defending against Hog Riders is tricky, as their ability to bypass Walls renders them irrelevant. However, the fact that they can jump over Walls and attack defenses means that they may leave behind their ground support (such as Barbarians, etc.), as they will not be able to follow. This will allow your interior defenses to concentrate on the Hog Riders. Another way to defend against Hog Riders is to exploit the fact that they will attack the closest defensive building. You can arrange your base in such a way so that you have high-powered defenses on the inside and lower-powered defense on the outside, with a layer of resources in between. That way, the Hogs will (in theory) complete a loop around your base before being able to attack your interior defenses (Inferno Towers, X-Bows, etc.), by which time they should have all been killed by the interior defenses. You can place Spring Traps and Giant Bombs in between defensive buildings to take out a few Hog Riders at a time; good usage of multiple Spring Traps and Giant Bombs can severely hinder a Hog Rider rush. Hog Riders can be easily killed using "forced pathing". Forced pathing is a strategy that manipulates the Hog Rider AI and makes them go to at least 2 defenses that cannot be prevented by surgical dropping or side clearing. Placing a set of Giant Bombs in between the two can most certainly hinder the attacker progress. They would not be able to heal the Hog Riders in time. Clan Castle troops, Heroes, and Skeleton Traps set to Ground Mode can be an annoyance to mass Hog Rider raids, as Hog Riders will not attack them unless all defenses have been destroyed. Make sure to centralize them if you want to beat Hog Riders. In Clan Wars, Dragons are excellent troops to place in Clan Castles against Hog Riders, especially for Town Halls 8 and 9. They have high HP, meaning they won't die easily and can kill mass quantities of Hog Riders swiftly if not properly lured. Most mass Hog Rider strategies require that the enemy Clan Castle troops be killed first, so if the attacker lures out a Dragon, but fails to kill it, then a 3-star win is next to impossible, much less a 1-star win via destroying 50% of the buildings. Multi-target Inferno Towers can be a severe hindrance to Hog Riders, having high HP to take several hits from Hog Riders, while hitting large groups of them. Although the Hog Rider is certainly not a liability on defense, the fact that all defensive troops are unimpeded by Walls negates the primary advantage of the Hog Rider. Still, for the space they take they are faster and more damaging compared to Giants. Upgrade Differences The Hog Rider undergoes significant visual changes at levels 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10. Initially, the Hog Rider is a dark-skinned man with a black mohawk and beard. He also has a gold earring in his right ear and sports two heavy golden wristbands, a red belt, and a brown loincloth. The Hog Rider's hammer has two brass bands. At level 3, his hammer increases in size and turns black. The brass bands on the hammer's head disappear, and the hammerhead goes further down onto the stick, creating a button looking object on the top of the hammerhead. At level 5, his mohawk turns from black to orange, making it similar to that of a level 5 Goblin. At level 6, his hammer gains three large, golden spikes and a bronze plating. At level 7, the edges of his hammer start to glow red, and he gains a brown headband but reverts to a black mohawk. At level 8, his hammer is now mostly golden. His hog also gains a headband. At level 9, the gold on his hammer is much thicker. His headband also lightens in color. At level 10, his hammer turns a bright light blue color that resembles the look of ice. This matches the theme of Town Hall 13. It also gains a small same-colored glow. At level 11, his hammer turns a light greenish color. This matches the theme of Town Hall 14. His hog gains gold armour on its face and muzzle.

Your sense of humour is off the roof, when the guys where pushing you making that sound . Much respect from me.

Oh man....I am hurting seeing that window into the engine. Happy to see your videos bud! You ALWAYS make me smile & entertained!

How you can still keep your spirits up, is amazing.

Having spent a ton of time getting my s2k running after it sat for basically 5 years (pulling the engine to tap a knock sensor hole, replacing the trans/flywheel, replacing the battery and interior fuse box harness, and a starter for good measure, only for it the Exedy clutch friction plate to blow on my first day back at work 2 days ago, I feel your pain , though probably not to the same extent. Glad to see you upgrading it though, it's gonna be savage with the extra power.

Great to see ya back Freddy……simple minded question, could the launch off of the hill in car trek jarred something loose??…..great video..

Ok pause the video and lets all take a second to thank Tavarish for the upload. Really great to see you even if it's this unfortunate McLarens engine factor issues. Thank you hope you read the comments we're all excited to see it built better than the white gloves though they could.

Love how positive you are about an issue! On occasions I get myself wrapped up in car problems and let them get to me! It’s a mechanical device and they ALL break especially when modified!!! Keep up that positive spirit!

I don't understand how on earth u can still calm and composed after seeing that. U r rock dude.

Ventilated engine blocks are the new thing! Very cutting-edge Tavarish!

You got this Tavarish! Wishing you all the best with rebuilding the 675. ❤

Glad your back, this is gonna be an amazing rebuild. Good luck

I respect that you owned it, nothing in this league, but I had a lot of old Saabs that I modded, I always went on the safe side because it was my only car.

That reaction to the engine blowing was uh... surprising. Really sad this happened, but I'm also not super surprised since you apparently chose to not do much to the engine before putting it back in. Look forward to how this saga continues, cuz the LT is certainly a beauty and a very entertaining and educative project. Also, it looks like the Aston Martin's front tyre desperately needs some air, please it hurts to see it like that.

Good to have you back Freddy, have missed your content. We love you

Nice to see you back 👊 loving the content with Matt Savage and can't wait to see some more content from your good self

The Blues Brothers: "We've thrown a rod!". "Is that bad?"

Really like the explanations

Got Goosebumps at 21:23. Let the P1 build begin!🤩🤩

I have loved the McLaren build from day one, and this looks exciting! Sorry you had that experience, but I am excited to see it get sorted.

Kevin was brilliant and I’m longing to see more from this collaboration 🤩👌

Welcome back bud! You like to start things off with a Bang ha...

Handling it like a champ. Good luck with building it better! EDIT: just scanned the end screen frame by frame and omg I can't believe you got a Toyota tundra!

I have to admire how relaxed you take this desaster. I would cry my heart out and probably drink too much...😀

Tavarish- respect, man, I just wish I had an ounce of your positivity in situations like this

Sorry for your loss brother. Love the T shirt. Derek is a crackup. as well as a for real mechanic. Get well soon!

Props for the Demolitia shirt!

It’s god to see you back Freddy-I’ve genuinely been missing you on my feed. Hope you’re on the up and up man. Sending you good vibes from the U.K. ❤ Andy 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

Welcome back Freddie! You knock out the videos, I will watch them, click the like button and even let the adds run. Hopefully this will help fund your shinny new engine. Good luck mate.

When the rod cap come out in this way it indicates a rod bolt failure. If someone in its prior life over revved the engine and stretched the rod and bolts it was only a matter of time before failure. I’m confident you didn’t cause this unless you were guilty of a big over rev. Welcome back!

I resisted watching this video since I knew how much blood, sweat and tears went into this project and it was such a sweet ride as well an impressive rebuild.

since the broken off pieces are already out of the engine, the rest of it should work just fine, right? 😂 sorry, couldn't resist. more than happy to see you back. good luck with the re-rebuild.❤

Glad you’re back dude! It must hurt like a mofo… 😢 Oh boy is right. Keep it up man! You’ll prevail! ❤
