@@Nebbia_affaraccimiei - Knowing the ring well, the relative speeds aren't that high so I'd say the Megane is stock, the Fiesta just wasn't very fast on the lap, too much lag and fairly sluggish acceleration.

@@vrrrrrr-uwu Nah, trackfocussed is right. That's a stupid gap to go for in TF, it's a tourist lap, not a race. The BMW was predictable, Misha was being too aggressive, like usual. Misha is still a VERY good defensive driver, but he still has that aggressive driver side to him that he needs to get rid of, it has no place in TF.
Took one look at those front brakes and thought....'nah, they're gonna die quickly'.....sat here now smh trying to work out how they survived! Brutal lap 💪
same. but the FiST is a relatively light car, and it has been set up so well. Misha was never fighting the car, except for that slight bit of understeer in some places, which is always a welcome thing IMO, a gentle reminder that if you continue you're going to lunch it.
The stock brakes are not good enough especially with stock fluid. But if you upgrade pads, discs, fluids and run on semi slicks it helps a tremendous amount to have the brakes not fade at all. used to have one myself that I tracked on the NS & Spa. The semi slicks in itself made a tremendous difference also in brake temps because the brakes had to work a little less due to better grip@@acalthu
Your driving is jaw dropping. I am speechless. *EDIT - Found myself, you are a prime example of showing ACTIONS speak louder than words in life. Liked, Subbed.
Wow this fiesta was flying 😃.You can tell there was lag but most of the times its that what saves the engine .Lots of power down low has more chance of breaking.
This turbo normally spools up full boost at 3-3.4k rpm since i had it aswell, bur switched to a bigger turbo that spools up full boost at 4k rpm but way more power
Another great drive Misha, one butt clench moment for all of us but nicely saved. You know when the passenger and Misha are quiet the drive is usually fast. Great track car and what a difference a quaife limited slip diff makes...
Fun lap but its very obvious that car isn't making anywhere near 330bhp, unless it hits that for a short period around 7k. The acceleration is far too sluggish (I've been out in a genuine Fiesta ST making 300bhp), this car accelerates very slowly for something with supposedly much more power than stock. The only other explanation is the turbo is far too big for the motor and it just isn't able to spool it in a way that makes the car driveable, I'd go as far as saying a ST with much less power would out accelerate it. You can also see at various times during the lap it can't catch other hot hatches. Still love watching Misha and the Fiesta ST is a decent hot hatch.
its mph but yes it doesnt look like 330- especially for its weight , i always thought that these cars need new transmision altogether....shorter gear ratios is a must. These have way to long ratios.
It can probably dyno 330 when you’re loading the turbo for the whole dyno pull but in actual driving conditions the turbo is never under load long enough to actually produce the boost it made on the dyno runs.
Fiesta st is probably at the bottom of the list when it comes to rating hot hatches 😂 no where near the best or even top 5..however it still can be the best for you 😊
I’ve got all the decent hot hatchbacks or I’ve had one. And I can assure you my s280 powered fiesta st is my favourite overall. I do enjoy my i20N (such a shame the ECU is still locked) and I’ll never sell my RS200 Clio. But a well sorted fiesta ST takes some beating. Believe me….
@@mgcharoudin I wish! :’( boys are out there again this year but it’s a miss from me. Maisie’s 8 months now, saving for another car, finishing the renovations on the garden AND finishing work on the car. However, I do think there’s a chance of coming out either this summer/ next year! I’ll be in touch though 👍🏼
Very good handling! 👏👏👏 But there is a noticable delay in the power delivery makes it not suitable for tracks competitions. Probably it just needs some tweeks in the turbo system.
I would think the track is the one place where a higher spool wouldn't matter. There aren't any corners slow enough where you are out of the power band in 2nd I would think. On the street I could see a 25mph corner causing bog, but here I am surprised. My guess is this could use some finetuning with the wastegate, or something.
I know there is plenty of 300bhp fiesta st in the uk and a lot with popular 360bhp big turbo kits but just seems to be 300bhp+ only in a very small window of the rev range and being a smaller capacity engine I guess doesn’t help 🤷♂️ still a very fun car from the looks of it, performs decent for what can be had in the uk for £5k or below in most areas.
My biggest regret is getting rid of Fezza ST, economical daily but so much fun on the back roads and very forgiving for someone who thinks they are a better driver than they actually are! It's the kids with rich parents who inevitably end up with them upside down that give them a bad rep!
Something does seem a little off with this. I have x47r turbo running running a safe 300bhp mapped by TRS and it gets through the rpms much quicker than this.
Now i can do the same in forzaaaa I feel like Misha 😂😂😂 what a good driver u are hope one day to come visit the green hell and go for a spin with a driver like that 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I can tell how frustrating that was to drive you were burying your foot long before the apex and you can see the frustration on your face as you were waiting for turbo to spool and actually get some grip and pull you around and out of the corner
Misha really putting work in this lap! Congratulations! Ps.: what is wrong with the bimmer drivers. ( i am one of them, already had 2 bimmers looking forward the 3rd one)
The M3 didn't expect the Fiesta to stick its nose in so early, but considering power-to-weight and all the screen-filling amount of mods, the Fiesta is probably the faster car. F1 cars in the 80s also had turbo lag, you gotta just keep them amused.
Broke the heart of the Porsche owner in the beginning of the lap. 😅
The Grey Megane was flying too!
was that Megane RS?
Yes that was an RS250 (or 265 maybe)
had to be tuned up quite a bit. either that or this doesnt really have 330 bhp lol@@Fastfishracing

Reason 1 for adding this car in every videogame. Fiesta has been one of the greatest independent car since it’s coming to the world till date.
I still don’t know how is not featured in Gran Turismo or Forza. One of the most popular cars for young drivers, including myself.

This is some of the best driving I've seen, sir. You BELIEVED. Excellent, footwork.
Dude. This is one of the most entertaining laps you've uploaded in a few weeks!! Hell yeah.
Blowing passed the other cars, especially the bimmers, HUGE bonus.
Thank you so much.
Misha you amaze me with your skills either right of left hand drive cars and a manual at that!!! Bravo
I love this ST, brilliant car, nice sound. Great lap!

Absolutely
Its not the power that is a problem. Its a torque that likes to test the strength of your components
@@darekmistrz4364 yes that's what I mean. Power down low is usually lots of torque which breaks conrods.
@@hondanickxIt’s not low end torque that bends rods. It’s a sudden rush of it. Turbo lag is worse

The only disturbing part was the things that hanging out from the rear view mirror…😅
Totally agree: beter remove those a next time😊
Is that from Gwyneth Paltrow's candle line?
Crazy little ST thing, seems to be a lot of fun.
really love getting to see the foot work in this one!
As a fellow RS owner, I felt when that NB RS blipped the gas as a lil fiesta goes flying by haha!
Need to see more supercharged 4 cylinder hot hatches for the track 😊
That things a weapon, nice driving as always.
what a joy to see this little ford eheh nice job as always misha well done!

250 at best
Hybrid turbos for you, absolutely shite for these. He should’ve got for an s280, would’ve been much better and probably 330🤣
Often 'over tuned' makes it worse, the manufacturers spend many millions on development, they know what they are doing.

The corner braking depth 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Misha is the man 👊🏻

Great lap as always ❤
Amazing driving 💯📷🤸🏻

What the fjuk was this air freshener all about. LOL 😀
330hp is a bit optimistic but nevertheless a great fun lap to watch. Turbo's too big for that tiny ecoboost, has a monstrous lag :D
it have 330hp but probably only at 7k rpm. It have big turbo lag.
These can easily make 300 plus, there's loads in the UK making that on hybrid turbos all day long
After watching the video it seems this one accelerates slow compared to other I've seen running over 300
@@alexrobinson5922 That's what i meant by 330 hp being optimistic. I know they can put out that power, but this one doesn't seem to
Could be 330 at the flywheel Instead of at the wheels
Fantastic drive misha
the rev limiter really kicked rocks on the exit of Wehrseifen. I mean still better than loosing time to shift and upsetting the car balance.
Awesome car, makes me want to look up how much I can get a used fiesta for.
Definitely need to tune mine up some more to make it as fast as possible
Too Close for Comfort. Well saved. Pro driving from Misha as always.
daaaaaamn how fast this little nugget is
....i own one! Great driving skills misha!!! it needs good hands.. lightweight car !!!

no way that's the same M3 I saw in Macclesfield yesterday as I was heading to work.
❤pedal cam❤
Going around that M3 around 4:00 was insane driving by Misha but also shows the benefit of power-to-weight ratios 😅.

Very good handling! 👏👏👏 But there is a noticable delay in the power delivery makes it not suitable for tracks competitions. Probably it just needs some tweeks in the turbo system.
Just... wow.
I never understand how the queue after a lap works. Some add to the back some cars just drive past everyone and cut in line? VIP cars?

That Megane was gone at 7:00. Definitely showed that little bit more grip it had over the Fiesta. Still Fiesta is a good car for what it is

What a rocket. How did you not hit the BMW?!?

Is it acceptable to skip the entire line at the exit, when you're not going for another round?
Are people cooling down their cars or something? 🤷♂️
I was wondering that too. I suppose if you need more cool down time running fast people will let you in ?
