The perfect result, and some immediate laps to enjoy the new seats in my AMG GT R Roadster! What do you think of my thoughts as to how it compares to my 718 GT4 I recently drove at the Green Hell?
@@NiTeHaWKnz the real problem that he will run in to will be the bracket seat connection and while they are having that done load in a could of other games like Cruise'n USA or really any racing game. It's just a standard PC under the seat should be pretty easy to put anything you want on there or install a Xbox one with Forza Horizon in each that way he can play with even more of his base. I'm sure the number of Shmee fans with a Xbox is in the million versus the number of fans with a simulator.
@@80wolfmanrob Actually, if he went your route, be might as well just buy a TV and an xbox etc. Refitting the Sega relly would be far more expensive with needing a new control system and monitors since Sega really was out well before HDMI came out on the scene. They'll have the old VGA connector on them. And having the Sega rally isn't about playing with his fan base, but the nostalgia of playing it as a kid. Oh, and you don't need a xbox to play Forza. It's been available for PC for sometime. But, it won't run on the PC's in the Sega rally sim, they're far to old and out of date for it.
I love how this man ALWAYS has a smile on his face, definitely lifts my mood up. Plus his passion for supercars is just amazing, always turns into a happy little kid when talking about those beauties.. Thank you Tim for being here.
Couldn’t say it better myself, Tim is an anomaly he has by far the best content in the car community and it’s not close. We average people are so lucky to be able to watch these videos and cars every single day
So impressive, how much you improved as a driver. And also probably one of the politest ones along the green hell. Happy to have you in Germany, Shmee! ♥️👍🥇
The whole point of the car hobby is to enjoy the cars and driving. I applaud you for making the seat change because it improves your driving experience and not accepting less.
The knowledge information on every car the driving capabilities Nurburgring got an awesome Channel keep up the good work and I love the Nurburgring blogs
Would've loved to see a third party innovate the air scarf feature into the bucket seats, then you would have had the best of both worlds and still have one of the best features of the convertible. Just imagine it Shmee... a couple of roof down laps at the ring on a cold day, with your supportive bucket seats and nice warm air blowing on your neck. Surely it can be done?
Imagine something soft and warm around your neck, like a blanket but a little narrower and a little thinner… just imagine if some one would invent something like that. Of course it would need to be light too. Maybe it could be called a scarf after the air scarf.
No issues with the audio, despite the roof being down. So much better now since you've started using a lapel mic on your blogs. The audio here is much much better compared to your pre-lapel mic episodes inside the car (coupe etc). 👍
Love the nurburgring laps, nice to see Tim cut loose and give it hell. Gets frustrating watching him tootle cars around on the road as a responsible adult 🥱
That car is obviously incredibly fast and looked like it handled the Green Hell far too easily for carrying that kind of speed. I would love to be able to take a lap on that track one day.
Thank you fron Spain for a very nice video Tim, I follow you since your very beginning here when you were a car spotter hehe. Good hands by the way, more laps with your cars please.
I gotta say that i wasnt sure about those buckets in that car... but the result is perfect. And also, you look a lot more “in home” driving the roadster on the nur than the gt4... your driving is much more precise. Congrats
What a beauty of a car. I saw this one only one time in real life at a Mercedes Benz Center here in Germany. So cool ! But it was not cabriolet version and yeah the steering wheel was on the other side haha
Bummer about the air scarf. Probably the best technology there is for a convertible. I loved driving around LA at night during the winter in my old SLK. Roof down, air scarf blowing, it was fantastic.
Truly great to see you enjoying your cars at the Nordschleiffe! Thank you for sharing with us. As a racer and fellow enthusiast, I have to ask you to wear a helmet though. You’re never always in control of every potential scenario and at the speeds you’re carrying at the ‘ring, it only takes one bizarre scenario to mess everything up!
There's much debate, but the issue is the additional weight and HANS devices are prohibited during Touristenfahrten. If you have a roll-cage and no airbags, then fair enough, but in an unmodified car wearing a helmet can potentially make a neck injury worse.
Shmee taking the best lines ever.... cudos my friend.... I can't wait till the day comes that I can actually come to Germany for my own laps even if its in a stock everyday daily haha... I've only ever drove that track on video games like gran turismo

Shades do look dope. Definitely will have to get a pair.
nice car!.....Randy from @savage garage wouldnt like it too much though...if you know what i mean!

Now finally someone who actually uses their cars for their intended purpose. Hats off to you Tim!! I hope we see an LFA in the garage someday.
Dreaming of that day! Thank you
@@Shmee150 You are most welcome . I truly enjoy your channel you are so positive and the content always makes me want to watch from beginning to end.
@@jamesg6792 facts 💯
@@Shmee150 LFA would be a great acquisition to your collection.
You're taking proper racing line and carrying a lot of speed in corners Tim. Congratulations you're a seasoned Nurburgring driver now.
need to team him with Misha for a race some day :)
@@Tarv1 that would be awesome
Got some nice exterior shots of you out in the GT R roadster on track 😁😁
Oh I need to check those out!!
A bit sad about the air scarf but very happy that Opus managed to keep the bottom toaster!!!!
Hey puppi
And only person has actually tested those out so far! ;)
@@Shmee150 missing the gtr pro already?
@@unknown81360 Why? He has the black series.
Find an upholsterer that can retrofit the airscarfe feature into the bucket seats... Best of both worlds 😎
Use the old seats for two more simulators or switch out the Sega rally seats.
YES!!!
I was thinking the exact same thing. They'd go well on the Sega rally game.

such a joy to see your joy as you took your laps. Beautiful sounds from the car.
That red is something else. Looks insane!
Good job! What a pilot Tim! Thanks for sharing this experience with us
Love all your content but man these laps around the track and on the Autobahn really draw me in and get my adrenaline going
Thanks for sharing your Roadster with us, great video Tim.
You're so lucky Shmee!
Happy to see you enjoying your AMG GT R to the max!
I've never been a fan of red cars, but damn that thing looks good Tim, love to see Misha do an open topped lap, Rj in Oz
Yesss throw Misha the keys!
Has to be so much fun in a convertible around the Ring! Looked amazing and it wasn't that loud!
Got to be proud to see a GT-R Pro with a portuguese license plate in one of your videos. Greetings from Portugal.
Haha nice!
A convertible track focused V8 beast with bucket seats on a track especially the Nurburgring only you can pull this of shmee
I love this car! Thank you
I can see more love for this model than the pro you had Shmee150
ALWAYS A PLEASURE AND TOP MARKS FOR THE MULTIPLE CAMERA VIEWS. THE STANDARD!

@@siffoine because no one cares what colour your scarfe is at cars and coffee 🤣🤣
Very nice, it looks much more enjoyable without the 200KMH limiter.
That looks like a wild time! Living vicariously through your videos.
Really like the video with the three camera setup from the track 👌🏼👌🏼🙏🏼
It's cool seeing you set up the multiple three camera angles! Be safe on that track.

Your first lap was crazy good!
Very impressive drive Tim. You definitely put a smile on my face too. Looking forward to the next run.
Wow. Looks like so much fun. I hope to able to do that once before I die.
Damnnn
Your lines are almost perfect.
It's crazy how far you have come as a racing driver.
Good one Tim, i hope there are many more miles to enjoy...
Shmee we need a watch collection video. The daytona you are wearing in this video is awesome
Havent really considered how dynamic that car is with most of your drives being pretty laid back....watching these laps it really is a beast!
Favourite car of your garage by a mile, looked very capable on track.
Sounded great Tim. No problems hearing you at all. Cheers
I actually loved watching the laps with the roof down
RIP Sabine!
And shmee! Kudos to your Sun glasses for hanging on there on that crazy winds! 😎🚦🔥
Nice driving, Shmee. It is nice to see you develop as a driver.
That car is obviously incredibly fast and looked like it handled the Green Hell far too easily for carrying that kind of speed. I would love to be able to take a lap on that track one day.
ABSOLUTELY HAULING it. Wow. Look like an insane amount of fun. Wish I lived somewhere in Europe.
right choice,best choice,good choice all of these are consist of power when you have abillity to carry out !
Probably best track video you've done so casually.

They look great, congrats. The track contact is epic as always too 👍
It was GREAT! Thank you SHMEE.
Brilliant content Tim. Your best is allways at the Green hell.
The audio is so much better nowadays. I love it! Great driving Tim🔥🔥🔥
Been watching you for awhile and I have to say your driving skills have gotten really good.
Yeah this seems crazy fast! What a masterpiece! Don't ever sell this.
The outro snap is epic! What a beautiful beast is the AMG GT R Roadster!!!
great audio! thank you for the mic :P
Use the new seats for chairs in the lounge at the shmuseum

@@chasingsol yeah I guessed there were restrictions on some days. Given the option, I think I’d still take my chances with helmet than without.
Great laps and sound :)
Can drive mate! Impressed 👍
Definitely right chosen and it looks better
shmee went full send with roof down, EPIC!
The GT-Black series & Senna need to go on the track back to back.
It really makes going 200+ effortless
Awesome seat upgrade!
the cover/flap looks afterthought... when the roof is up it sits right next to your head.. i jsut think it could be so much better
Great lap Tim.
I really think the Nürburgring is one of the best looking race tracks in the world
Sound was great. Video as well :)
The slightly softer set up on the gtr will help massively…. You are flying round there Tim
I think the addition if the mic has upped the sound quality while driving in my opinion will you be doing a road trip when the STO arrives?
Nurburgring Spot On!
The GTR Roadster must be the most capable convertible on the market. Such an amazing car！
I really enjoy the lap！
It does look a super secure platform 👀
Your steering has improved massively Tim 👊🏻
Nice to mention Sabine 👍🏻
Nice just need to upgrade the exhaust now!
Great video again Tim. I’m out there the 24-27th are u out there for long
Very cool! 💯👍
Thank you 👍
You should put your original gtr roadster seats in your clio
Those seats would make quite cool office chairs etc. for visitors.
its still amazing to watch your progress at The Ring, they need to get you out in racecar sometime soon :)
Shmee taking the best lines ever.... cudos my friend.... I can't wait till the day comes that I can actually come to Germany for my own laps even if its in a stock everyday daily haha... I've only ever drove that track on video games like gran turismo
Now I can feel a connection with the car
Cool video Shmee. Amg sounds awesome.
Everytime smile on his face 😊😊😊😊
You should go around in your clio
Your take on car spotting in the car park would be cool to see.
Convertible’s make you feel alive, with all the car sounds and the wind in your hair.
Saw the roadster today in Mill Hill, Shame wasn’t you driving it
Man, 250kmh with the top down must be crazy. 😳
I enjoyed this video so so much 🥺💯💙
Hey shmee will your GT black series be ready reprayed by the time you return to UK ??
Not quite, it takes 6-8 weeks, and it's only been about 2-3 weeks so far
Someone else enjoying a couple of roof down laps.....Fiat Barchetta at 13:43 and 18:58? Rare car if it is.
The gt’s v8 sounds pretty good but there nothing like the beautiful porche flat 6
That red with those seats and the accents… sexy
MAAAAN! Shmee can drive! ATA boy!
