isn't Scott the 'channel owner' he talks about? the fact that Will pointedly mentions he was just shy of 2 years at overdrive means he didn't get any redundancy pay so he probably wasn't too happy about it

I have a Porsche 924 that’s been parked 21 years. If you want to have a laugh to get it to fire, let me know. Been watching you on car throttle and am glad you have more freedom to do what you want. Good luck with the channel. I’ll be watching to see the fun progress.
Main reason CT was so entertaining in recent years was Edwin’s presence. Can’t wait for the uploads
It makes me happy to see Alex support so many people to start their own KZread channel. I can already see him encouraging Taylor to be the next one.
2 days after posting and you already have over 10% of overdrive subscribers. Keep that money in your pockets fellas - well, more money to spend on old junk cars that we'll all have a tonne of fun watching you mess around with! Wishing you both luck 🙌🏻
When Alex left CT, CT died. It felt like CT was stumbling around trying to get back on its feet. Then EDWIN came along and he basically saved the channel for me. His humour and personality complimented the others well and he was the absolute perfect candidate to take over for Alex. Instantly subbed. I hope you can bring the other two guys along with you.

I think CT got better when Alex left. Jack and Ethan just felt like sidekicks when they were together. Alex works better with Taylor on his own channel while Jack, Ethan, and Edwin worked well as a group. Sadly it looks like Jack and Ethan need to find new jobs.

I hope Jack and Ethan see the light! Was initially a bit saddened but obviously now knowing the full truth about CT, it needs putting in it's place! I'm here for it!
Great to have you back Will. You were my favourite on Overdrive, something about your laid back demeanor. Good luck with the channel, it looks like it's off to a good start.
You two were my favorite part of videos from both Car Throttle and Overdrive for the last year. I can't imagine a better on screen pairing and truly can't wait to see what comes from this! Best of luck!
I've met Will twice, once was at goodwood, another was when my MX5 was featured in their MX5 video. Honestly such a nice guy! Can't wait to see more videos!!

Gonna be sad not seeing Edwin on Car Throttle anymore but I’ve instantly subscribed because the restoration videos were the best ones to come from that channel.

well! I have never heard of or watched any of these previous programs but I stumbled on your channel (thanks, algorithm!) and i'm loving you guys and your videos! Your characters, humour and banter is spot-on and i've watched every video you've put out now. Good luck!
Good for you guys going it alone. Can be scary but totally worth it. Excited to see you grow and you will you guys crack me up.
Sooo.. Le me get this straight CarThrottle is pretty much dead. ?
Is the American 'Center' spelling deliberate? It's driving me mad!
So essentially CT have done a Vice and run the company into the ground. Glad you branched out Edwin because you were my favourite CT presenter
Wish you the best of luck guys, it's always scary to start your own project but I have been watching each of your respective channels over the last year and you have been great. Let the good times roll!
Love you guys, glad to see you starting your own thing! Loved what you added to the carthrottle videos, Edwin, and excited to see more. I didn't really watch much Overdrive but I did see Will on a couple of videos and I could feel that you had a lot more to give than those videos/writers would allow. Looking forward to what you guys make and all the shit boxes that come along the way!
Great to see this! Excited to see this channel grow to 500k followers without having to sell your soul - I’m here for it! Ps - scrap yard snippet at the end. I’ll be very happy if every video has a scrap yard segment FYI - never too much turds, it cannot be overdone
Im a young enthusiast with a scrap car obsession and this is exactly what i look for in a channel and im so excited to see this happen
Subscribed! Absolutely gutted that Overdrive has stopped though. That had such a good mix and was very watchable. Wishing you both all the best with this channel though. Looking forward to seeing what you do. 🙌
Well done guys, these independent crop of channels are so very much better than the corporate channels. It's just fun to watch. Love seeing you on the other channels too.
So happy for you guys - I was gutted when Edwin left CT and so glad hes back doing what he does best (cleaning things instead of working)!!
I know about Edwin thanks to the Porsche revival videos. I'm new to Will, but I subscribed. Best of luck with your ventures boys!
It was always nice having everyone in one place at CT, the content was fun, very enjoyable to watch; but the idea of having multiple channels now, TDC, AutoAlex etc etc, is such a nice thing, more enjoyable content, more often. That's exactly what we'd love to see! Congrats on the new channel, nearly 90,000 subs in 3 days is pretty ludicrous, hopefully, it grows as big as possible!
I wish you all the best guys! Glad to see you're not giving up!
This is as good as the announcement of the grand tour! Very excited, best of luck.
Absolutely amazing news. Alex did himt last week about some news coming. Never would of thought it would be something like this though. Well excited to see a new car channel doing the stuff we all want to see
Thoroughly enjoyed doing the Overdrive video with you, Will at Llandow last year. Wishing you all the best with the new channel!
Honestly feel like this channel could be a wheeler dealers type vibe. Seems like a perfect balance of character and on screen chemistry. Very exciting.
Good luck lads, Edwin always impressed me with his mechanical skills and attitude on CT. Nice to see another UK based channel about cars 👍
76k subs by this time. wow. by YT algo, I stumble upon this video and I thought, yeah, I have never seen videos from that previous channel anymore. so here I am. i love watching restorations, modifications and buying junk cars. i watch a lot of American videos, none from UK or Europe for that matter. since I come from a right hand drive country, your videos would appeal to me more than anything else. good luck boys and I'm looking forward to it..
