Misha looks like he's popping down to the shop....so relaxed but then absoluting hard core focus....Ped's done enough trackdays but still look surprised at the speed and commitment..
Ah yes, that's one of the things I remember most about my own lap with Misha. Was in extreme weather, we almost crashed and/or had another car crash into us, etc., pretty much one of the most stressful things I've ever experienced.. and at the end Misha gets out and his demeanor's like he just drove to the supermarket. Either he's just so used to it, or just a totally different type of person.
On my trip to Europe and the UK I hired a BMW racecar for 6 laps of the ring. I don't know what the name of the corner is at 9:36 but I messed that corner up and into the grass on my 1st lap. I can now see where I went wrong. It is a double corner! Thanks Peter. I will remember that day. I took my son around twice, gave him the car for one lap. I also took my wife and she said" why are we going so slow?" I was doing 144kph into a blind corner. She has been my rally navigator for years so she loved the ride.
Well Peter…Misha is such a good man and as you experienced, he can drive in a way most of us can only stand in awe of. As we know what happened next, I’m glad you didn’t have the problem that bit Misha and Joe and more that all of you three are fine and uninjured. Was that rose joint about to let go on your run?…if that is what failed! If I get to the Ring then Misha is the one I will chose to ride with…but his friend Tim is hot stuff as well. Your face tells me a lot about the experience..you are a wheelman of some ability well beyond me!…so Misha really is something very, very special and a truly nice man as well! 😀😀😀😀
Hilarious video, the funniest I've seen on the channel. The sight of Ped with a rictus like smile clearly terrified, clearly wondering whether his last will and testament is up to date, cracked me up. Excellent stuff.
To drive the Nurburgring is on my bucket list after that video I might have to rethink that! Great video with some great facial expressions. I hope no one who watches this video can lip read!
Just don't do it on a Sunday or Saturday morning, better around lunch or later in the afternoon. There is a drivers training "Nordschleife XL", in the morning sessions you don't have to worry about cars from behind. Groups of 6 are led around the Ring by an instructor. Overtakting is only done by entire groups after the instructors agreed to where and when.
a while back i drove a section of the ring as a rally stage in my 6r4 at night with no lamp pod and used it many times to shake the the metro down great fun in the dark for sure ...safer in daylight .
Haha well I didn’t go quite as brisk when I took my Mum around but that looked epic. Your facial expression from 19:00 was awesome and Micha’s driving was amazing.. Sabine would have been proud and impressed. Great video.
Just wow!! Misha has far more faith in what the other drivers are doing than I would! Didn’t get visual confirmation on the vid but I hope you were taking Deadpool’s advice and were wearing the brown trousers or shorts!! 🤣🤣🤣
Well, that was fun! Your face was a picture, Peter! What a driver! What a track! Have subbed to Misha’s channel on your recommendation. Best wishes from Wirral, as ever!
Just brilliant. Very few videos - particularly one with so little commentary - are such compelling viewing. PP’s beard only adds to the cartoon-esque look of awe and consternation, particularly when you had to jink round that road hog. An awesome production.
Hi Ped What a brilliant production one of your best to date.🤗🤗 Your face said it all.🤭 Misha what a star, he will rank along side with Sabine, god bless her.🥰
watched many people (including misha) many times driving the ring, but this was epic how he made the gr86 look like it had way more power than it really does, the look on your face said it all. misha driving me round the nurburgring just made it on to my bucket list
The look on your face is priceless. you should have your neighbour's wife do that one😲😲. I would love to experience that, but I have labyrinthitis and my head would explode. 😥
Brilliant video both Pete and Misha. Love these underdog lightweight RWD cars like the GR86 and MX-5s. Out of the factory, they are the perfect blank-canvas and the world is your oyster when it comes to the potential they have on various motorsports environments - this Nurburgring Clubsport setup being the prime example!
I am so happy to see and hear you did the Nürburgring!!! Congratulations! I lived in that area of Germany more than six years...and I went only once to drive ONE lap in my brand-new 1985 Honda Prelude. Even 38 years later, the memory makes me smile. You will smile for the rest of your life, too! Aloha and take care!
That’s some amazing driving, the speed differential between you and others incredible, think I’d wear a helmet just to feel safer don’t want to get caught in someone else’s accident 👍👍👍
@@PetrolPed And I have one ordered now finally after a long wait ;) there's still a few up for grabs in the UK if you're willing to go on the Toyota waiting list!
Jeez that was a chancy move down Phantzgarten 3 , quick driving but should know better with all his experience to pull that move down PH3 , no return if that goes wrong. Brilliantly funny expression 😅 great video
Always wanted to go. Planned to go. Realised I was too competitive to take my own car.............. I was an inevitable walk-homer. And there's no point in 'just going'.
This has been on my bucket wish list. I am now a little apprehensive after watching your reactions (was also yelling watch out that car - lol like you could here me)
Misha, what a legend! What a laugh watching your expression changes, and Misha ever so calm beside you! Incredible how fast he makes that thing go! Didn’t see anyone overtaking you! Brilliant video Pete! Cheers, Tom
What an episode! Absolutely exhilarating and breathtaking! That GT86 sounds like it's going to take off at warp factor invincibility! The speed and control is just insane and you've got every corner and emotion right there letting us experience it with you...Your face says it all aswell Ped, pure motoring heaven 👌🤘
It’s a public toll road. The car must be road legal. Cages and helmets are optional. Some people do. I wore in when I passengerd in a GT3 with a cage. HANS devices are not allowed though 👎
Now you know why I keep going on About my lap with Mr Schneider ...... The most amazing sensation when you are with a Proper Driver..... Wanted to go on track with Sabine but it never quite happened.... RIP..... Has your heart rate come down yet?? lol.... :-)))
I’m glad you got a chance to go out with lloydie as he’s next level, I’ve been there a few times with him, possibly the quickest driver you’ll ever go in with just look at his Time Attack lap records around Europe, AWESOME
Greetings from Colorado, brother! Wow and double wow! How very far you, Joe and Misha have come while sharing the journey so generously with us. Laying out your passions for years. It's been a thrill to see you achieving personal and professional success in your 'other' lives. You get the idea. I'd love to be a fly on the wall when your better half and kids see THIS! This AIN'T your momma's motor home holiday. A successful ' 5 day 'business trip,' this! Hail, fellow! Well met!
We used to visit the Nordschleife in the 1990’s for private track days combined with Spa for a week every year with Wheeltorque ( no longer in business)….back then you didn’t have TH-cam to help learn the track ….. I learnt it in sections and gradually could put it all together…..some years we did the combined GP circuit and Nordschleife together ……no pressure unlike the TF days….. and always took out track insurance 😊
Pete ! Amazing facial expressions in this video :) Fantastic drive. I can not imagine how fast they go around when setting the records :) But of course, then there is no other traffic I assume.
Mate that is awesome. Your face is priceless all the way round I think in sheer disbelief at the track the speed the control! Now, a top video would be getting your not so great passenger friend in there with Misha! Can you imagine that!!!!
Hahaha this was awesome to watch, not least just for seeing your facial reactions! And this is one of the most entertaining laps from Misha with 27 overtakes! Great to see this collaboration between you guys! Great entertainment!

Ah back when the 86 was still driving😂😭 Thank you for the opportunity to take your Ring virginity. Wait what😂
Mate. Thanks for the lap and thanks for the footage 🙏🏻 Great spending time with you and your lovely lady 🥰👍
Hahahahahahaha!
Rear left Cusco snapped, toed in the wheel on power load and sent you and Joe to the barrier. Aluminium is a bitch.
Forgot to add "no homo" .. !!!
Wow, just Wow!!
“At least we’re not going to end up on You Tube!” I think Joe had a slightly different experience! 😂😂 Misha is a legend!
😂😂😂🫣
LOL 😂
When's your neighbour going round with him? lolol
We were actually organising that while I was away 😂
🤣 That will be worth watching lol
I’d love to see that. Would be worth putting a swear box in the car and put the money to a charity of Misha’s choice.😂

Great idea 👍

What a brilliant production one of your best to date.🤗🤗 Your face said it all.🤭 Misha what a star, he will rank along side with Sabine, god bless her.🥰
Many thanks Mate 👍
The collaboration we've all been waiting for! I'd love to see Misha take your Clubman JCW to the 'Ring if you still have it! 🥺
Sadly I don’t have that car anymore 😢
Good comment... the car is a bit oversteery... moments later... he crashed the car..
this video was amazing. Great reactions!
Thank you!! 😁
You don't know what others are going to do. I'd have had a lot 'less to say' PP!
I've been watching Misha for a while, he's a phenomenal driver. The momentum he carries round corners is insane! (Your face was a picture, Pete!).
He can peddle 👌👍
This was epic and judging by your facial expressions you thought so too 😀👍👍👍
It sure was 👌
That was quick… and at some points that was well over the limit… we’re those gaps big enough!! Great video bud
Big enough for Misha. Definitely not big enough for me 😂
watched many people (including misha) many times driving the ring, but this was epic how he made the gr86 look like it had way more power than it really does, the look on your face said it all. misha driving me round the nurburgring just made it on to my bucket list
He’s a very handy driver for sure 👌
It's almost as if Mr Toyoda said "build Misha a car for the 'ring" and the 2nd gen '86 was born!!
😂😂😂
Cars being equal, Does anyone think Misha would keep up with Sabine?
What a race that would be 👌
Ped's face, was terror, respect and appreciation 😂👌🏼
Yep 👍
The look on your face is priceless. you should have your neighbour's wife do that one😲😲. I would love to experience that, but I have labyrinthitis and my head would explode. 😥
Working on it 😜😂
Not for me that. No helmet, no cage and very little runoff. Insane skills though. 👏
Fair enough!
Well done, Your facial expressions of amazement are great, never seen you so quiet.☺

Couldn't agree more!
Only ever done it on a CBR600RR. I raced bikes and it still made me feel slow.
Wow. Brave man 😮
I am so happy to see and hear you did the Nürburgring!!! Congratulations!

Loved the expressions on your face. 😂 l think this should get a lot of views. 👏👏🔥🔥
I hope so 🤞
It puts the Kevin Estre night racing videos in perspective. Turn it up to 11 and turn off the lights!
Driving the Ring at night 😮
unbelievable pal you've face said it all😮😟
Yep 😂
That’s some amazing driving, the speed differential between you and others incredible, think I’d wear a helmet just to feel safer don’t want to get caught in someone else’s accident 👍👍👍
Yeah. I did when I went out in a GT3 👍
@petrolped lloydie is next level
Your facial expressions were hilarious!!!!😂😂
😂😂😂
I know it's been somewhat modded, but boy is the GR86 an incredibly capable sports car for the money.
Yep 👍
@@PetrolPed And I have one ordered now finally after a long wait ;) there's still a few up for grabs in the UK if you're willing to go on the Toyota waiting list!
Imagine never going round the ring then jumping in with him, talk about jumping in at the deep end 🤣 legend
😂😂😂
Oh my god Pete that was one of the best videos of the year be sharing this with some petrol head I no if they haven’t already seen it.
Thanks mate. It was a great experience 👍
Misha was taking that carefully for you... !
😂😂😂
Jeez that was a chancy move down Phantzgarten 3 , quick driving but should know better with all his experience to pull that move down PH3 , no return if that goes wrong. Brilliantly funny expression 😅 great video
Always wanted to go. Planned to go. Realised I was too competitive to take my own car.............. I was an inevitable walk-homer. And there's no point in 'just going'.
Fantastic as Always
Thank you
Oh
Where is Robert
Miss him

Yeah he wasn’t there over the weekend 😢
😳 that looked absolutely epic Pete 👍🏻Your face was priceless on a couple of corners/ passes !!! 🍻🇨🇦The man can indeed wheel 👊🏻
LOL you're face is priceless!😃😀😄🤣🤣 it s an experience being driven around a track by a fast driver !
Hi absolutely brilliant your expression was priceless think about clapping the girls it will calm you down great stuff.🐶🐶🐶👍👍👍
😊 thank you
Petrol Ped almost shat his pants at that ^^
My word what a crazy ride!

Indeed 👍

Cheers, Tom
I know!!
Right up until he did a “misha” and crashed the car!
😬
Hello mate
No oil surge mods? Apparently turning right a lot is a problem with the FA24

Glad you enjoyed it Rod 👍
Astounding, he took no prisoners, hats off I say. 👍👍🤜🤛🇬🇧
Did Misha used to be `Boosted Boris`?
He sure did 👍
Your expressions spoke volumes 😂
Yep 👍
Amazing video and certainly a close call and you summed misha up Legend thanks for bringing that to us ❤
Glad you enjoyed it 👍
Fantastic drive, loved this one
Thanks 🙏🏻
That was epic, loved that! Need to go back ASAP... 🤗
Hi, why are there no helmets or roll cages? Just curious!
It’s a public toll road. The car must be road legal. Cages and helmets are optional. Some people do. I wore in when I passengerd in a GT3 with a cage. HANS devices are not allowed though 👎

You got that right 👍
👌👌
Great to watch! I'M curious to know what is Misha's best lap time to date ?
Not sure to be honest 🤷♂️
I want a pedal camera on Petrol Ped to see where he is braking compared to Misha 😁
Pete your expression was priceless. Good job they're weren't any flies in the car, you'd have been cultivating them by the end of the lap..
😂😂😂
I remember saying to do a lap with Misha on the podcast. Delighted it happened 👌
Me too 👍
What a driver!
Yep 👍
Great video, Pete’s face was an absolute picture 🤣 think I will be getting overtaken plenty when I go next year
Just stay to the right and enjoy 👍

Yeah. They close the track for record attempts 👍
16:17 can't overemphasize it. If possible it should be experienced by everyone who is into motorsports.
Yep 👍

Pete, sorry but that was not your best decision, no roll bar, no harness, no helmet and several near misses, what were you thinking.....
Technically it’s a public toll road so no helmet required. If the car had a cage I would have worn one for sure 👍
Misha is a legend. Thanks for the video.
Just epic 👍
Yep 👍
I absolutely loved this ! your face was priceless🤣 we have been away doing a binge watch of all your videos i have missed !
Great to hear 👍🙏🏻
