@Misha : Push the back button on the left side of the steering wheel to remove the warning text in the instrument cluster, so you can see speed, boost, engine temperature or tyre pressures (if you still had the TPMS sensors in the track wheels)
I recommend you hold the 'Lane keep assist' button to turn it off fully. After the last few track days in my GR I found while over the ripple strips the car would try and turn me onto the grass or into a wall because it thinks you have gone out your lane. I have seen in some of your previous videos that you had the GR try and turn you towards the wall, and this would be what was causing that. 😊
Thanks for the explanation laps, I admit I spent more time watching the dash than the view, I've got over 6,000km's on my GR Yaris but most of them have been done by my nephew, only thing he doesn't like about the car is how often he's asked if he wants to sell it, Rj in Oz
Nice video explaining everything & enjoying the track! PS Turning lane assist completely off is a long “very long” hold on the button on the steering wheel
Hey Misha, Those bikes that have constantly spinning pedals and wheel in the same time are called fixed gear or fixie. Basically they are track bikes that you can see on velodrome or on the streets. ✌🏻

Hey Misha I have a question regarding yesterday's video: is it possible to join a MR Trackday with an old air cooled vw beetle with the same engine as a 356?
VSC is only off if you stand still doing the long press. It's in the manual. I have one of those. For when one is new to the car: expert mode is good!!!
@@magnus-thome hey Magnus, but is it really fully off? I think it only shows off but it is still a little bit on. It was the case in Misha's previous videos also.
@@MT-eb2dx Yes, the text "expert" dissapears and it is all off, I've tested this thoroughly on tracks 😁 and also ice lake driving. Okay most of the times I long press while in the pits but sometimes I forget and have to do it while out on the track. I'm at 25000km with mine now. Ps: th-cam.com/users/magnusthome-rejsanuvideos
@@MT-eb2dx After the "expert" dissapeared there was no problem. Only collision warning appeared (just a warning, collision avoidance not active) It's all in the manual but people are confuzed because they don't read the manuals.
The engine is amazing in itself but it's the AWD system in itself in combination with the core suspension design into the rigid shell from factory that basically makes the GR Yaris what it is today. You gonna need more then the engine to get the real deal you see from GR Yaris videos
There's a GR Corolla coming soon. From what I've read it is supposed to come to North America, and it'll have that same engine (in even slightly more powerful version). AWD and manual are also there ofc.
You day the Yaris GR doesn't need more power, but the white bmw was easily walking away from you. What is it then that your Yaris gr needed to avoid that?
My experience is the Yaris is an amazing track car. Incompetent drivers would struggle to get into trouble with all the aids on. You have to be a complete hooligan, by most people standards, to get it to move around with them switched off, even in the wet.
Car sounds angry :v Bike analogy was fine but it's always gonna be hard to explain those things to someone who doesn't understand the difference between electronic and manual shifting. Long story short would have been 'The car can protect itself from damage when it's computer is involved in the decision making process (electronic throttle and automatic/tiptronic transmission), but it can't do so when your input is purely analog (mechanical throttle and manual transmission).' That being said, my 1st gen BMW 1er was reeeally hard to downshift if the revs weren't in the happy mid-low range, while in every other case it was smooth as butter, and other forms of mechanical protection for manual transmission cars should be possible.
I also want to live in a world where pshysics doesnt exsist and where i can believe that a electronic rev limiter will protect my miss shifts from 3rd to 2nd.... muat be wonderful to not be in touch with reality 😆😆
Your driving line is so smooth, it's a pleasure for me to look, how you fly over the ring ❣️ I'm not a expert, but i enjoy it 😁 Love from Berlin, Ramsi 😘
Ik hoop dat de mensen jou fiets uitleg gesnapt hebben. De toerenbegrenzer grijpt in bij gas geven en je bereikt je max toerental, bij mis schakelen duwt de auto de motor aan, deze mechanische krachten houdt een toeren begrenzer nooit tegen.
Mis shifting is when you select a low gear like 2 instead of 4 and it forces the revs to go way to high in the red having the engine screaming and some cases blow it to bits because the revs are way to high for that gear the bike thing you talk about doesn't make sense
It wasn't too complicated or boring. Have you considered doing another snow bike ride while trying to explain mechanical over-rev? Pancake can follow on foot with one of those medical kits or a Swiss rum barrel.
My experience with this car: you can get into pretty trouble with all systems on (sorry Tammy) How peope mis-shift this thing is beyond me, it might have the best FWD/AWD transmission I ever handled. What this vehicle needs is a slower steering rack because it is too twitchy for my liking.
How wide are the rims that are paired with those 265 tires on the Yaris? I'm looking at running the same width on my Acura for some back road/canyon/mountain pass fun here in Canada, and can't decide on a wheel width. I figure hey, if the fitment is good enough for Apex taxis on the Nurburgring, it'll probably be good enough for my needs.
Since the video shows the track and cluster all the time, I can't help but notice how plain the custer looks. The gauges are literally silk screen printed on plain black plastic, that makes them look really cheap. I have to commend Toyota on one hand for making this car in this day and age, but they could spice up the cluster a bit more, since it's the one thing on the car you look at the most when you are driving. It's a bit dull and reminds me of a 2000 Toyota, not a 2020 car. It doesn't have to be a full digital one like the Supra, but they could add some minor elements to make it look better.
My mom's Yaris can beat this Yaris on two points, fuel consumption and electric drive distance.
On the fun part however, not so much...
Your mom‘s yaris:
Better fuel consumption
Better electric driven distance
This yaris:
faster
2 vs. 1 your mom‘s yaris wins 😎
@@Zoltec-q1g Hell yeah!!
But... I think the fun factor of this one trumps both of those big time!! 🤣
Your having a Laugh.
@Misha : Push the back button on the left side of the steering wheel to remove the warning text in the instrument cluster, so you can see speed, boost, engine temperature or tyre pressures (if you still had the TPMS sensors in the track wheels)
I think they mentioned they don't anymore in a video, thats why it's showing a warning light too
I can still remove it on mine. But i dont know if there has been any software updates for it after my last service
@@TiyamatFTL Yeah the warning lights will always be on. But you can get the normal center display if you do.

Great video as usual greetings from Poland 🇵🇱
The intake sounds awesome. I cannot wait to hear it with the mods and also the new exhaust!

Smooth and professional driving! You have my respect, sir! Looking to get my hands on a little beauty like this asap.
🤘😎🤘🇬🇧
You are first :)
Good video
Since we can't get this car here in the US, I really hope that Toyota sticks this little engine in something that we can buy...

My opinion? I need to "borrow" the car for some laps when I come next year.
Why is the Lane assist icon on the dash red? Is it broken?
The sticker on the windshield is blocking the sensor for it!
@@MT-eb2dx exactly
@@mgcharoudin Not sure if it's street legal anymore, you know us Germans 😜😅🤦
Why does the hazard come on when you brake?
When you break heavy it alerts the person behind you by blinking them with hazards. It’s a cool feature but probable not for track
Most modern cars now do that
Car sounds angry :v

Great video. Thanks for putting when it was filmed :D
Could you share tire type and size.. and why??…
Hi Misha. Enable turbo gauge next time, please.
Off season lap videos are most welcome. : D Moar!!!! : P

Its the way most people would wont it. You should try a Caterham, that is direct, you don't steer you just look where you wont it to go.
Ciao hello to all team Antonio and dominico 👍👍
Thx for sharing, what are all the white 2 door cars with the big wings passing you? (15:27 example)
BMW M2. Not sure if they are a special version. They don't look like the CS racing.
Is that induction sound or just cabin sound?
I believe it's exhaust gas making that whooshing sound. I have heard this in other vehicles (with some mods) as well.
Cabin
How is the straightening of your teeth going? My brother used pliers to remove his braces.
Wtf
no ESP but lot of notbremse.....

So ein tolles Fahrzeug, aber der Sound ist leider echt identisch mit unserem Eufy Saugroboter.. :(
Klingt in echt noch einen Tick besser.
Cool video 👍🏻
Just floor it!!!
When are you adding a tuning box?
Never
feel any difference with intake system?

Buy one, mod it to your likes and please make a vidéo when it's done. 👍
Moneys been spent on the important parts,bespoke body,bespoke engine and 4wd system,Toyota have the priorities sorted.
As an American I appreciate all content on this car that I would love to own but can’t 😖
Get a GR Corolla with the same motor!👍
Woohoo and again woohoo i finaly was first to like this video... 🥳🥳🥳 yeeeey
You were second.
