12:50 Thoughts - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
As an S550 Mustang GT w/ manual owner, this video brings me joy. I'm not much into drag racing, so it makes me happy that a well setup Mustang GT can perform very well at a track like the Nordschleife. Mine is currently setup for the streets with occasional canyon carving and spirited driving on some nice roads here in the US. Definitely agree with the braking situation though, my brakes are still factory.
I think we speak for all s550 owners when we say we're all proud of this car 😁
*track racing. :)
@turboskratch gaming - Does and S550 have braided brake hoses? One has to wonder if that with exceptional fluid and pads would make a huge, relatively cheap improvement?
My 2012 still kicking it. Actually just bought new replacements for new rotors and pads all the way around lol. After so many back to back canyon runs a few nights in a row I ended up torching my front 2 rotors ;)))
@@sheldonaubut They do not have braided hoses. However, I'm reading on forms that the lines make a marginal difference, especially if you have brembos on the car already. Nonetheless, new pads and rotors will be more than enough for street and canyon use.
Very happy to see the manual, track-oriented version of my Mustang killing it on the ring 👍Also, the video came out less than a month after our lap, props for the hard work Misha!
Yes, I wanted to put this one out fast while people still had our lap in their heads. Thanks again for the lap!!
@@mgcharoudin have you tried a Shelby yet? Heard they drive so well and they sound absolutely amazing
I’d love to see a properly set up GT350r on the ring. That would be the best representation of a track capable mustang.
If I lived over there, I’d let him take mine. He would absolutely enjoy the experience
A stock GT350R is fine.
Idk the GT500 would beat it..
@@usz28 yes but a gt350 is a Porsche GT3 where a GT500 is a Porsche turbo s ..... two completely different cars.
@@Lucas-ie2ti Actually the GT500 would be more comparable to a GT2RS than a turbo s since the turbo s isn't as track-oriented as the GT500.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the smoothness of the speedometer? like all the digital dashes of all other brands (except volvo and ford apparently) have a refresh rate of 1-2 times per second, giving it quite a delay. I don't know if it's just me but I find this speedometer extremely satisfying to watch, as an oppose to those of other brands
true same here. i also like the numbers on the dodge hellcat
thats why I despise most digital speedometers but this one is alright
can definitely confirm that the new 2019 onwards Volvos have probably one of the smoothest digital dashboards I've seen. the tachometer is so smooth its quite unreal. its a little laggy for the first couple of seconds on startup, but then almost 'calibrates' itself and becomes incredibly smooth. You can even see it in some of mishas videos with the polestar 1.
It seems that this speedometer runs at 20-25 fps which is obviously much better than 1-2 fps speedometers for many other car manufacturers. I think some manufacturers think that the speedometer is hard to read if the numbers change fast but you can easily keep the numbers readable with fast enough display (you need maybe 20 ms pixel response time or less for a crisp 25 fps display so that's should be easily doable even in cold temperatures with a good LCD and obviously OLED would be always fast enough). I find slow speedometer response hard to use even for normal passanger cars if you try to accurately match the highest allowed speed on road.
I think using tabular font for the numbers would have been even better. For example, when speed went from 172 to 171 the number 7 shifted a bit towards to right because "2" was taking more space than "1". Some fonts have very nice numbers with regular widths and do not require such shifts.
And I loved the tachometer implementation even more here.
It's funny, Misha may not be the most emotional guy but when he likes a car, it comes out in how he drives it. You can tell he was really enjoying that.
I was surprised when I was watching the intro and I saw the low fuel notification on the dash in Polish! Had to do a double take when reading it XD
Ja tak samo :D
wow, impressed by your foot work. left foot braking, then switching to right foot braking for heel'n'toe downshifts. seems like you really developed your driving skills since i last watched your videos few years back. thumbs up !
Isn't that how everyone does it? I do.
@@ocavant You're a legend. 🤟
@@lollypop9580 lol far from it.
@@ocavant how do you start learning left foot braking?
My left foot is so heavy and clunky for the clutch.
My heel and toe game is ace from dealing with my old wobbly 8800rpm, but all sensitivity on one foot! ☕
@@CH1K3N99 only way is to try it over and over until you slowly get better at it
Buying a mustang next month. This makes me even more excited to get mine
Glad to see Mustangs getting some love. I have a 2019 GT with Performance Package Level 2 (same front splitter, wheels, and original tires as he's got) and the handling is insane. This one is taken to another level... and it's awesome
Same Pp2 White with red interior .
For the uninitiated....You'll be surprised on how much of a difference those STEEDA suspension parts makes! They made a modified Ecoboost faster than a Stock Mach 1 around the track!!!
steeda components aren't that good. There are better parts to use tbh
@@maximborodyuk3773 they’re oem plus with the added bonus of being able to handle harsh driving. Maybe their drag racing stuff might not be good, but their components for track/canyon setups are good
What do you guys mean??? People in the mustang forums with Steeda parts are beating personal records. Their 60-ft are in the 1.2s
@@overweight_miata it's better than OEM, but there are better options.
I'm not talking about 10 seconds throttle pushing, it's about track.
Of course some basic stuff like bushings lockout is ok, cause it's...basic
Steeda for the win
Looks like a very fun car to drive, especially with the Manual transmission 👍🏽
And that's with an "ok" transmission......the tremec in the gt350 and the newer mach1 are a far superior unit
Phenomenal lap enjoyed that, you really got into it a few minutes in! The car must have gave you a lot of confidence as those high speed corners were took at serious pace and it still looked stable.
Fajnie widzieć auto z Polski pozdrowienia dla Was i dla ciebie Misha :)
First video with a Mustang in Misha hands was very interesting, second when you are a part of it, is just awesome. Thanks once again Misha, it was a pleasure 😎🔥
Fantastic driving Misha, always a pleasure watching a true professional.
Thank you so much for going the extra mile and putting pedal cams in your video, its a very important piece that lets you know how the car would actually react depending on different inputs.
There you go, with parts being available, a Mustang could be the next Apex Taxi! I guess Robert would like it as its from the Stars and Stripes motherland....
Needs 4 seats ;)
@@mgcharoudin So Mach-E then? 🤡
@@AXIDNT66 NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!😂
watch this and feeling like the car is on the edge of control and chaos. love the front cam and foot pedal cam. some braided brake lines and better brake fluid will help a lot in the hard braking.
Another stellar video, thanks for showing USA some love.
This was some good stuff. One of those laps where you feel like you're enjoying it almost as much as someone sitting in the passenger seat.
Fantastic ,really enjoyed watching the stang around the ring ,good driving and great car ,keep the good work up 👍
Nah that’s crazy. I love the Mustang and wish i saw more of this. In America you only see 350s and 500s on track, barely. It’s always drag strips and rolls. This is nuts to see a 5.0 running people off the track
The sound of the 5.0 alone...fantastic
So cool to see the beloved 5.0 tearing it up in Europe. I've been waiting for this episode. I've owned every generation of Mustang from the fox body and up (including the 2003 SVT Cobra) except the current model. My 1st car back in 1996 was a 91 Mustang LX. When my kids are older I would love to continue owning them. Great video as always 👍
Damn Son, you've got an impressive footwork. Changing between breaking with the left an right foot. Verry cool to see!
Great grip and surprising speeds in the corners
It's good to see you lapping some American cars. We are very fortunate, here in the US, to have affordable Mustangs, Camaros, Corvettes, and Cadillacs, which are all terrific cars.
I watched the whole video by listening to the engine and starring at the foot camera. Loved it!!
Super cool to see Misha...had a feeling you would like this one.
Ford almost took the GT350R to Lamans because it was very good on track...so they say. They do put down shockingly good lap times on track.
I have a 2012 Boss 302 that is set up for track racing. Mine came with Brembo brakes , Recaro seats, and you can adjust the suspension with a screwdriver. The only thing that is not perfect is the MT 82 transmission. The owner was right about having to sometimes be a little light with shifting. You seem to already know to keep it around 4000 rpm to keep it in the power band. Of course mime comes with a track key that turns my 444hp street car into an absolute monster. Loved the video and wish I could get out there with you.
I had the same RTR wheels on my '16 Mustang GT, also manual. I loved that car a LOT. Such a joy to drive.
Great lap, so much fun. 🤩
seeing your footwork is amazing
The deep breathe the car owner takes when the lap is over.🤣
Passenger seat is always a different experience
never see a mustang doing so well on track. realy good car, amazing. thanks to show us.
Look up the video where the gt500 track pack ran an almost identical time with a gt3rs. Gt500 is heavier but they also have similar power to weight ratio.
Nice driving !!...Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful lap, beautiful car.
That was a fast golf at the beginning there haha! shame it backed off early
Nope it was blocking the track like an asshat
Don't think it backed off, it couldn't keep up in the corners by the looks of it.
I don't think that the Golf "backed off" -- once the driver stopped being a moving chicane -- it got "blown off" LOL!
I enjoyed more watching this mustang lap than any other, i hope misha gets to drive the GT 500 that would be brutal.
He will drive Schmee's probably
I have a 2013 Shelby GT500 track pack with a full suspension upgrade. It’s so amazing what you can do with the right parts and set up. I love my track days!
Good morning fro Utah, Comrade. Love your channel and the ride alongs!
When Micha is driving, it looks like Walter Röhrl ❣️
Totally in the game and the car is flying over the track 😅👌🏼
I love it 👍🏼
Love from Berlin,
Ramsi 😘
OMG!!! What an amazing lap!!
I love hearing some american muscle screaming around the ring, thanks Misha and passenger!
Hell yeah. Awesome channel. Excellent driving
The sound is amazing 👏😍
Nice video and car! Really liked the intro.
Thanks to the owner! A very cool car and it seems setup well. Very sad that manual transmissions are losing to metrics, but the joy of rowing is something special and you somehow feel more connected.
The car seems too heavy and underpowered due to excess weight, but it looked like a comfy ride.
Am hoping that Misha gets to pilot the C8 with the Z06 upgrades. From an engineering standpoint & daily usability it’s really impressive in terms of bang for the buck.
The Ford Mustang is the best buy for performance. For less than $30K US dollars. You get a car that can handle well, brake decent and perform well right from the showroom.
Once you add in all the aftermarket part. It's easy to see why it's been around so long and will continue to be.
Great video! Good setup! Only wish you had a G-meter to get an idea how much it’s pulling for being such large auto. Looks like it generated a lot of downforce!
My friend had a 2017 pp2 5.0 manual and it was a pretty incredible car. I got to drive it in the Cali canyons on the factory p zero tires and on some cheaper tires. I would love to feel it on ps4s or cup 2s. On the cheap tires it was so tail happy it was a absolute hoot. I would do stiffer poly bushings in the IRS though, it felt like the rear end were parts loading up and releasing. I want the mach 1 with the tremec trans
My mustang is such a good car in the corner. Most planted handling car I’ve owned. Able to take some tight 35mph turns at 80-85mph.
Looks great, sounds great and drives great. What's not to like. Hopefully we'll see more of these cars
We drive a 2008 Mustang GT for our events and the car is strong, and the aftermarket is one of the biggest points to tracking a Mustang...just so much available. Granted, the S550 Mustangs are much heavier than a 2008, and prior to the S550 Mustangs, they have solid rear axles, but nonetheless, still very capable track cars! As always, a great video.
Base mustangs are affordable here in the states Misha but the trims with big power are NOT what I'd call affordable, we wish they were lol. Great lap! I think that guy in the black GTi did a pretty good job giving you a run for your money in the turns :)
awesome to see you driving more american cars and giving them good reviews.
Great drive Misha!!...I was hoping it at least had a turbo but I can sleep tonight knowing it was a manual! 😂😂😂😂😂
00:42 that turned shiftknob reminds me of the GR Yaris i've driven XD That also was too easy to loosen
Enjoyed the video!
Would love to see your reaction to a Camaro with 1LE package Misha
Me too!
@@mgcharoudin Me Too!!! :)
I think i read/heard somewhere that the 1LE is banned in Europe bc the areo is a “danger to pedestrians in the event of an collision” they have the big front splitter and gnards
@@zorrokitty5666 that only applies to the ZL1 1LE, not the SS. Hopefully he can try out either a regular ZL1 or an SS 1LE🙏
@@zorrokitty5666 Yes The ZL1 1LE is in question about those issues. They made a 2.0 T 1LE. 3.6 V6 1LE and currently the SS 1LE, This is the 6.2 L LT1 engine with 455 HP. They are all a blast on the track ! I'm a driving instructor and the 3.6 1LE is almost 50/50 , it's 52% Front and 48% Rear with 335 HP. BMW M3 feel ! This is no longer in production :(
It was getting close to the Hot zone! But awesome lap! Looked it ripped around that track pretty good!
Accelerates in a 5.0 V8 500 HP Mustang out of the gate, overtaken by a Golf in an acceleration battle. Those 4-banger Golfs are quick. Crazy! A really nice Mustang though.
Didn't seem like he was really pushing the Ford hard at that point being his first few seconds in the car.
@@Mandolin1944 1st through 3rd seemed pretty good. No powershifting but that's understandable and would have been unnecessary of course. Still surprising how quick those Golfs are around the ring.
Now that is a fast S550 ! Pozdrowienia !
I love this channel, I’m from the states I dream to visit Germany one day and play around on the Nurburgring!
that is a fast vw golf
😂
I would love a Mustang
Always had a soft spot for them
Loved the old Cobra R
Thanks!
I took my mustang for a little fun and man it was exhilarating, i had advancetrac off for the runs and just used tire slip as my indicator to slow down a little
Updated короче =))
This car looks very stable and it have impressive cornering speed. Love it.
I wanna see you drive a Zl1 5th or 6th . Great video. Thanks for the content.
Really enjoyed the ride Misha i have a GT manual 2021 im in Australia i won't be tracking mine though there a great car 👍👍
This video was scary and a ride in a fast car through the Ring known as the "grave yard" is crazy and dangerous! Very entertaining watching you drive ‼️😱
Love the additional angle for the peddle box, thank you!🦿Kick ass car!
Nice Sound .
This is what I was talking about . I have exact same and it’s awesome in corners
Finally! ...a coyote on the ring, on this channel (I haven't seen one here before). Not a bad motorsport weekend, Coyote on the ring, and F1 in Monza. Definitely kicking back later to watch these.
There was another a few months back
Even my S197 4.0LV6 from 2010 (not calling it sports or a track car by any means) handles pretty well with leaf springs and stock suspension on the right set of tires.
that black golf? in front was HOONING awesome lap
That look of oopsie at 10:12 was brilliant. Nice to see a mustang handling corners pretty well 👌👌
The Cup 2 tyres on this thing made all the difference!
You should try and find a roush mustang there is a track pack stage 3 supercharged version here in the states ..and shes a beast of a car
Go on Ford performance. Lol. Nice car and a fantastic lap. That golf at the beginning. Madness. ✌
I loved range going down so accurately! 😂😂
The foot camera is essential for these videos. Please include it in every video. Love this shit!
They're quite handy with a few mods for the track
Great video!
Hey Misha, you should check out the current Australian V8 Supercar series and the 2023 mustangs they’re bringing in ! Should be interesting 😊
This was amazing! Also amusing to see it eat pretty much a quarter tank of fuel in one lap! 😆
Gahdamn, that fuel warning is terrifying, it drains so fast!
that so enjoyable to see manual cars on track
Mustangs on the Ring are so darn cool to watch.
That made me change my thoughts on Mustangs
I'm glad you get to drive a manual S550 Mustang, finally!
Brakes ---USE Carboterch 10 & 8's or 12 & 10's. Much Better initial Bite and then modulation thereafter over oem! Great for Road Course use and still ok/fine for street. They will squeal/squeak some and need to be Heated Up for best stopping performance and best used with grippy Track Tires -- Super 200's or better. These pads will get a lot hotter than oem
Watching you rip around this track in the new Mustang GTD would be a trip :)
Finally! Mustangs for the win
To the owner - try to use ventilated hood and some canards, it will bring car much more front grip (the hood lifting killing front grip); and looks like you have quite nice setup for the rear DF already
Great video.
Awesome sound of course.
Would be a better car if it had the more robust Tremac gearbox as found in GT350 and Mach 1 ( GT500 dual clutch even better )
I’d love to see a drive of the new generation gt500 and see your thoughts.
Love Mustang gen 6 Soooooo Much
You drove the piss out of that car!! Great job from the states 🇺🇸
Cool owner. I am glad he showed you his Track car 💯
