JIMMY, WHY SO TIRED???? 1 - Could be fitter 2- Insane schedule left me exhausted (had to leave as soon as the race finished) 3 - suspected long term effects of that cough everyone got in 2020. Slowly improving, but still very much feeling the latter.
Near the end of the vid and had to stop and say you can definitely see your confidence has grown brilliantly in the wet as proved by the lap times. Fantastic job jamble (for what it's worth) Excellent vid as well. Further edit. Wow what an end, MASSIVE congratulations to you all, that was genuinely amazing.
I think the pandemic helped sim racing grow SO MUCH that it got actually BIG. At least one good thing this hell of a 2 years of it bring to humanity. Lots of great sim racing products, lots of new people in the industry and lots of amazing stories like Jimmies are yet to come. Great time to be a sim racing/racing fan.
I still can't believe the story of you guys. With all the setbacks and catastrophe, you guys still conquered all. I'm so feckin happy for you, Jimmer! I told all my friends about this and whilst they didn't really know what I was talking about, I was just so happy to be a fan. Congratulations congratulations congratulations!!
I love how jimmers despite of not realizing he had punctured a tire, he still kept the car inside the many turns just by adapting to the changes and catching up to the 504. I cannot wait for your next race with steve and misha as your teammates.
Watched every second of it live. We had no car cam, no coverage, but me and a couple of hundred other nerds sat and screamed watching the live timing sheets as you passed and took 3rd. I'll never forget it. What a day.
That guttural scream at 18:49 just proves how much work he put in and the team, and also that run from 19:10 you can see how tired he is to then at 19:18 running and then to sit down again due to exhaustion, absolutely wonderful job from the team and you jimmer, you all did so well to get that podium.
Remember “watching” this race on your discord using the sector timing page to figure out what was going on. Had a little cry when you took 3rd. Can’t believe how dramatic it all was with the puncture and spin infront of you
I'm sat in the middle of nowhere halfway through a delivery shift on my break. I'm cold, tired, and hungry, but seeing you cross that line has got my fists pumping, well done fellas
Just think that little moment early on in the rain...a couple of years ago that would have probably freaked you out big time. And here you had to go around the Ring in those conditions, which takes some balls to do! I couldn't help but grin at the moment with Misha and Steve at the end. Super wholesome content. 10/10 would watch again. GGs Jimmer.
I gave up on racing a few years back due to an injury, it changed me and I could no longer perform like how I used to in karting. But seeing how sim racing has been on the rise since then, and watching those like Jimmy here achieving their dreams, has made me determined again. I am now currently getting my body up to speed again, and I look forward to sitting back in a kart soon. Much love to you Jimmy, you are an inspiration ❤
Great to see this. Such a great team. The stars were aligned when this team came together, and to think we have all watched this journey back from when Jimmer and SuperGT were living in sheds and racing in Forza. Having Misha top off this group was just magic, too. Great stuff.
I'm so happy for all of you. I've known your channel for quite some time now, humble beginnings. Stumbled upon Steve and Misha two years ago and took a liking too. It's just great to see you all together achieving your dreams. And what a colourful set of drivers you are, was actually excited to see you all come together. I'm not the biggest motorsport nerd, more of a lifelong casual on and off interest of mine but got more into it the last years again through VR and a worthwhile wheel setup. Naturally consumed more content around racing and sim racing too and am constantly amazed by Mishas skill around Nordschleife in all his videos with random cars. I also fell in love with Steves dry, calm professionalism and humour over the years - so happy for him to make his way too. Always a pleasure to watch all of you when i get to it. Get well soon Jimmy, wish you all the best. Don't push yourself too hard, some things can't be forced (unlike your punctured beamer onto the podium).
We're so lucky to be witnessing the childhood dreams of a man we all adore come true. Proud doesn't even come close to whatever the hell we're all thinking and feeling now.
well said, brother. I was trying to explain this whole story to my coworkers while they looked at me like I had spaghetti coming out of my nose but I didn't care. I'm just incredibly happy for Jimmy's success.
This whole journey has been nothing short of inspirational and exciting to watch. Watching the team build chemistry and having fun whilst trying to jump over hurdles shows that with the right mindset and a good team, you can overcome anything, especially in motorsport racing. Congratulations on the podium guys you all deserve it! The content from Jimmy, Steve and Misha throughout has been fantastic to watch and I look forward to what is in store in the future.
Dude. Who cares if it took a while to make - that video was awesome. The event and moments it captured: awesome. The editing: awesome. Your journey to there: awesome. Gives me the feels, soo good to see. Ty Jimmy!
Absolutely epic, thank you for letting us take part in your passion once again. That stint at the end was insane for us to witness through a screen but can't compare to what you went through in the car. The constant level of adrenaline you must've felt and once again the most well earned result and being embraced by people who care for you.. You've come a long way from the basement and although some days the stress or the world becomes tough, these are the days that make every other second of every other gray day worth it. It's truly wonderful to witness a profoundly sympathetic person such as yourself Jummer follow their purpose in life. We're all very proud of you
You know, at some point in this video I had the big moment where I realized Jimmy’s doing this. In a real car, in a real race, in real life. The fact that Jimmy is racing in real life and not in sim became a fact to me in truth. Amazing man.
Jimmy, if I could like this video a thousand times, I would. Ive been watching your videos for 6 or 7 years now, and I absolutely love how the journey is going. Its been incredible to see how your career and life has progressed in such a positive way. This video has put a huge smile on my face, so thanks for that and just keep doing what you're doing. Its class.
Jimmy, this is absolutely amazing stuff. It was cool to watch live, and I love hearing your perspective on how it all went down afterwards. It was worth the wait, looking forward to the next video!
Holy well done jimmer, the warrior mentality to keep pushing and going and try to take risk. That scream in the end is the cherry on top. Super proud of you
Really interesting to see the personality dynamic with you three. Steve seems super loose and chill, Misha seems like he's really serious and competitive, and Jimmy seems like the anxious one always waiting for things to go sideways.
YOU MADE IT MAN!!! You are the real deal! You need more than something to drive like that. Congrats and im excited to see what comes next and see you enjoy it
Jimmy - thanks for sharing this amazing journey with us. Please don't feel pressured to maintain a crazy schedule, youve got an audience now, they wont go anywhere, even if you take it easy for a while. Gotta admit I was curious which of the three of you would end up getting the best time in that car. bet you wont let the other two forget it soon :D
I was screaming cheering you on during those overtakes to take third. Cried when you came across the line and heard you scream. I miss that feeling, I know that feeling, and I know how much hard work it takes to earn that feeling. Don’t know you personally but I’ve been a fan for the whole ride, and I’m so so so proud of you dude!
As an American who visited the Nurburgring in August and walked past that BMW test center. I feel incredibly grateful and lucky to have done so, if you love motorsport save your money make these trips it’s worth it.
Best video i have watched from you jimmy, thank you for sharing . i actually had a tear at the end . What an amazing stint you had and you prove yourself worthy of irl drive seat ...to quote" you are the DOG now".
Good job on the audio for this one. Best of your irl races this year and it is nice to be actually able to hear your thoughts. Enjoyed it and congrats on the podium 🎉
I would say this is a culmination of a long journey, but I feel like it's only one of the stages. And that the ride never ends. That was some proper old school tussle, with a result even sweeter than tiramisu Misha mentioned. So proud and happy for all of you in Team Bilstein
Glad to finally have your video on this race! You all did an epic job and what an amazing stint you did at the end, your living the dream. Keep up the fantastic work, love seeing how far you've come, from shed dweller sim racer to real life racing driver! Cant wait to see where the journy continues to go from here.
I hope you and the boys take it to the next level and bring home a first place soon, this is some of the best racing content on youtube made by three of my favourite youtubers. 👍👍
Amazing man, have really enjoyed watching all these races live despite the coverage dropping every lap. Incredible efforts from all involved (black falcon, Bilstein, drivers)
Wow, what a nailbiter! I've been called a cold, calculated driver before - but you always know in your heart that the best rescues happen in an area where that's no longer true :D All the best, Jimmy.
I'm 46 and very much a grumpy old man, but seeing Jimmy sprinting to Misha at the end had me "chopping onions" 😂 Well done chaps, that was fucking awesome!
awesome job boys, been really gratifying watching you all through this series! i love how mischa likes to present as a tough guy and he was giggling with joy more than anyone at the end 😂
the way you edited this, made me think of this one vid I saw of Chris Harris in a classic Jaguar (or equivalen) race. I thought (and still think) that was one of the best racing vids I've ever seen in terms of emotion and narrative, and this one is up there as well. Good job on both the racing and the editing. In the end, better to be fast on track and slow in editing :D
Even if you don't read all the comments Jimmer, I hope you at least scroll and just see how proud so many of us are of you. You've earned everything you've gotten and haven't changed your character to fit anyone else's mould. Keep grinding man. ❤️❤️🤙🤙
Hi, it’s soo cool you are racing in a team. I don’t know if Blistern really want to keep everything confidential, but I would be interested to hear the logistical side and the finance of running a team.
Man, that was wild... the GT4 bullying past the slower bimmer getting trashed... the fight for 3rd!! Damn, thats a lot to deal with in your 2 hr stint!
Please tell im not alone, when Jimmy ran to Misha at the end, jumping at him for that massive hug, it was like a son running to their dad, screaming DAD DID YOU SEE!?!?! DID YOU SEE THAT!?!?! That shit was so fucking wholesome!
JIMMY, WHY SO TIRED????
1 - Could be fitter
2- Insane schedule left me exhausted (had to leave as soon as the race finished)
3 - suspected long term effects of that cough everyone got in 2020.
Slowly improving, but still very much feeling the latter.
Take a nap bro
Near the end of the vid and had to stop and say you can definitely see your confidence has grown brilliantly in the wet as proved by the lap times. Fantastic job jamble (for what it's worth) Excellent vid as well. Further edit. Wow what an end, MASSIVE congratulations to you all, that was genuinely amazing.
Its called getting old jimmy. Just wait till you have to pee three times a night
im going to go with all 3
You should be proud, you're smashing it and doing better than any of us would do!
A couple of years ago this dude was living in a shed, now he is a praga champion and got a podium at the nordschleife! What a journey this man had
i bet years down the road the man is in a GT3 racing at Le Man or Daytona. Story for the movies
I think the pandemic helped sim racing grow SO MUCH that it got actually BIG. At least one good thing this hell of a 2 years of it bring to humanity. Lots of great sim racing products, lots of new people in the industry and lots of amazing stories like Jimmies are yet to come. Great time to be a sim racing/racing fan.
@tyhamlin5563 that would make his journey complete haha, I wish the trio could get into GT3 would be awesome
Jimmer - from depresso to sucesso. It's safe to say that Jimmy is my motivation.
It could not have happened to a more deserving bloke. Fucking love Jimmy
Naps are life
В детстве я не любил спать, потому что ты на 8 часов как бы уходишь из жизни, а сейчас люблю, потому что ты на 8 часов как бы уходишь из жизни.
Life is naps
@@zloychechen5150this is a great saying. I'll be stealing that and telling my friends/co-workers
Misha and jimmers chemistry makes quality content
everything else...is just waiting
The yell at 18:49 is the culmination of achieving something you're passionate about. Proper chuffed jimmers
A golden moment.
I've watched a lot of moments of jimmer, but this might be my favorite. A culmination. But only of what has happened so far
Not gonna lie, that yell actually had me tearing up a little :¨)
fr same lmao
and he didnt even know he was in 3rd place, imagine if he knew
I still can't believe the story of you guys. With all the setbacks and catastrophe, you guys still conquered all. I'm so feckin happy for you, Jimmer! I told all my friends about this and whilst they didn't really know what I was talking about, I was just so happy to be a fan. Congratulations congratulations congratulations!!
Thank you very much man ❤
I love how jimmers despite of not realizing he had punctured a tire, he still kept the car inside the many turns just by adapting to the changes and catching up to the 504. I cannot wait for your next race with steve and misha as your teammates.

Misha shouting come here jimmy and you sprinting over had me tearing up man. So fucking pleased for you jimmer. Great drive 👏
11:41 side by side on the actual Nurburgring in an actual racecar and race and winning the position too, dude came such a long way
Remember “watching” this race on your discord using the sector timing page to figure out what was going on. Had a little cry when you took 3rd. Can’t believe how dramatic it all was with the puncture and spin infront of you
Didn't you watch the live broadcast of the race?
this felt like a well done short film.
I was on the edge of my seat, despite knowing what would happen.
I'm sat in the middle of nowhere halfway through a delivery shift on my break. I'm cold, tired, and hungry, but seeing you cross that line has got my fists pumping, well done fellas

Great stuff.
Jimmy, I'm so proud of you and all that you've accomplished. You deserve it all. ❤
Significantly fastest laps in the car with Misha and Steve is SERIOUS stuff man! Excellent.
Amazing stuff, and an inspiration to a whole generation of sim racers who dream of one day racing themselves.
Hard work pays off.
That roar after you crossed the line *HYPED ME THE HELL UP!!!!!!*
I'm so happy for all of you. I've known your channel for quite some time now, humble beginnings. Stumbled upon Steve and Misha two years ago and took a liking too.

Sending you a big old man hug bro. So impressed with how you have persevered. Your an inspiration to thousands.x
Jimmy. This can't be repeated enough times. You are an inspiration. Live the dream for all of us! RACING THE FREAKING NLS IN REAL LIFE!
3:07
Thank you for this amazig GranTurismo shot, straight out of my childhood.
From a shed, to the Nurburgring 😎 Great video, well done!
the emotion of racing is incredible, just brilliant, I absolutely adore this!
This whole journey has been nothing short of inspirational and exciting to watch.

SO pleased for you and the guys! I reckon you have got more in you than you know buddy. Looking forward to the next one and the future.
Congrats!!
Man, this makes me so happy to watch Jimmy. Look how far you have come!

These three together are just gold. Show me any other teammates that click like they do.
I've been wondering why there hasn't been any video on this legendary moment, worth the wait 😍
18:50 The passion! Beautiful!!
So glad jimmer got that podium
Even got tears in my eyes when he crossed that line 🎉🎉😅
Jimmy, if I could like this video a thousand times, I would. Ive been watching your videos for 6 or 7 years now, and I absolutely love how the journey is going.

Well done, Jimmer. It's moving to see you achieve these things.
I am so damn proud of you Jimmy... That was an amazing display of skill and your commentary was hype AF!
Holy well done jimmer, the warrior mentality to keep pushing and going and try to take risk. That scream in the end is the cherry on top. Super proud of you

Holding that outside line till it switches to the inside line was sweet always a pleasure watching the vids
I was screaming cheering you on during those overtakes to take third. Cried when you came across the line and heard you scream. I miss that feeling, I know that feeling, and I know how much hard work it takes to earn that feeling. Don’t know you personally but I’ve been a fan for the whole ride, and I’m so so so proud of you dude!
Jimmy, your evolution is outstanding. So impressive. A hard fought podium place in difficult conditions.
As an American who visited the Nurburgring in August and walked past that BMW test center. I feel incredibly grateful and lucky to have done so, if you love motorsport save your money make these trips it’s worth it.

Incredible work by everyone involved and what a good video to watch.
Thank you jimmer and congrats!
Great video and congratulations. What a result it was! Superb drive by you too....
And as for the feeling permanently knackered. I'm with you.....
I hope you and the boys take it to the next level and bring home a first place soon, this is some of the best racing content on youtube made by three of my favourite youtubers. 👍👍
What a race at the end especially! Congrats on the podium bro

17:58 I had to check my heart monitor.
Yep... Still beating.
Congrats guys! Nice driving!
Huge congrats Jimmy and team! You all smashed it. Huge thanks to Bilstein for making this happen once again
This is awesome to see! Such an awesome video and race. Cant wait for the next one, congratulations from me!
misha's imitation of jimmy at 5:17 is bang on 😂
I'm 46 and very much a grumpy old man, but seeing Jimmy sprinting to Misha at the end had me "chopping onions" 😂 Well done chaps, that was fucking awesome!
Absolutely incredible work Jimmy! So proud of how far you've come, what a video!
Congratulations Jimmy (and the rest of the team). Well done, well deserved!
Fantastic stuff Jimmy! This video brought a tear to my eye. I'm proud of you! I can't wait to see what you do next.

Hi, it’s soo cool you are racing in a team. I don’t know if Blistern really want to keep everything confidential, but I would be interested to hear the logistical side and the finance of running a team.
A podium at the 'ring! well done Jimmer and the guys!

Awesome racing and team work. Congratulations lads and mechanical engineers

Great job! It's always nice to see when a lot of hard work and teamwork pay off.
Looking forward to the future races. Well done Jimmy and the team.

Well done Jimmy! Great driving from all 3 of you.
So proud of you and the team Jimmer! Keep it up. You are an inspiration to us all.
