BLISTERING PACE! First Nurburgring Laps in My Ferrari 296 GTS
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 พ.ค. 2024
- It's go, go, go at the Nürburgring with my new Ferrari 296 GTS! For the first time, I'm at the Green Hell with the hybrid V6 supercar from Maranello, a car that I recently bought and has been in need of the legs stretching. Well, now is exactly the time to do it, come with my for the first laps!
Every Shmeemobile comes to the famous Nurburgring Nordschleife to be officially welcomed into the collection, so of course the 296 GTS was going to follow in the steps of the SF90 Stradale, and even my GTC4Lussos and FF before. However, you could argue it's not the right car for the purpose given it's a convertible (with higher weight) and not the Assetto Fiorano (with track suspension), but with 830hp there's plenty of power to have some fun.
The track is busy, but that isn't going to stop the fun even during a first sighting lap and then a second one to really up the pace and get some of the excitement that this car has to offer.

I love how you were smiling about 99% of the whole video and 100% of the time u were driving
Can't stop smiling in this amazing car!
Tim’s the kinda guy you can’t help but to smile back by from his love and passion for cars and how they work drive differ from one another lets you know he has earned the respect and admiration from people like him not fortunate enough to get that experience, but the closest we will get to experience. Glad he shares that with us!
Honestly the 296 sounds superb when driven in anger. For a V6, very very nice.
He was always smiling?
Ferrari puts soul in their engines ❤
needs an exhaust its muted
Can’t wait to see the SF XX
Cannot wait for it, big fun ahead!
He probably won't drive it just like the Zenvo
@@nathandavis5003 Can you really blame him not driving that beautiful Zenvo around that track with all the eegits driving around it! I can tell you I don’t I was glad to see he didn’t!
@@nathandavis5003He drove the Senna, so definitely the sf90 xx stradale will be lapped.
@@nathandavis5003 His Zenvo has about 4000 miles I think, which is a lot more than many other hypercars that very rarely get driven
Ferrari definitely knows how to make a V6 sound amazing
In general Italian V6 Engines all sound great
Prost & Cheers from Berchtesgaden in the Bavarian Alps
I think the 296 is the only truly amazing modern Ferrari. Don't get me wrong I know the SF90 and the Purosangue are cool but I think the 296 is just so well done and so chimed in. It holds its own much better than its modern siblings.
Get in a tdf
@@latbeast 10 years old?
Not really. It's nice, it's light, it's fast. Many like the design, but it is far from flawless.
Something you may noticed that Tim said at the end, which is that there's something the SF90 has, which this does not.
The SF90 is a very playful car, and in some ways, feels more playful and faster at slower speeds than the 296. Part of that has to do with the lack of feedback the 296 suffers from though the steering wheel. Some has said the SF90 lacks feedback, and yes, it is not as tactile as an F8 for example, but close. In terms of steering feedback, few sports cars feel as numb as the 296.
There's another issue which Tim also touched upon, and this actually also goes for the AF version. It does feel a bit "loose" somehow. Even on fairly good roads, it is a bit jumpy and skips about a bit. By comparison, the SF90 feels absolutely rock solid.
So while the 296 is a very good car, I personally think an F8 and SF90 are both much more fun cars in most aspects. And for me the laggy throttle, and especially the lack of low end power takes away from the 296. A powerful sports car should try to kill you a little bit, but the 296 does not feel that way form the way it delivers its power. There's a reason why some call it entry level, and that has nothing to do with price or the V6. It has everything to do with how "soft" the power comes on below 5500 rpm. Put your foot to the floor in an F8 at anything below 120 km/h and it will try to spin its wheels - it's like stepping on a bomb. Put your foot in the 296, and it's nearly impossible to get it to break its tyres loose, unless you're in 1st or it's cold or damp.
There's a lot of hype going around. It is a nice car, but it is not the best of the newer Ferraris, that's for sure.
I like the 812 platform the most, especially the Comp A but the prices of course are crazy
The second lap was much better both in commentary and driving quality because you were more race-focused. That "talking through your actions" was great.
This spec is one of the better ones I’ve seen because it’s not too much, but it works so well. This and the Triple F collections 296 are just stunning!
"It's always exciting when you take a new Ferrari for its first laps" -- so relatable 😄
I drove the 296 GTB yesterday, and the power this thing has is absolutely mindblowing. I understand Tim’s reaction 100% 😂
That last lap you were in the zone, you had extra presence of mind when to back off. Spectacular indeed.
I'm loving the switch up from the cold openings to the warm openings of the video. Subtle change but it does give the videos a fresh feeling.
I’m so excited to see the spec of the SF90 XX, but I’m pretty sure my favorite Ferrari spec of yours has to be this 296
I think the XX will split opinion, it's a bold spec, like many of my special cars
@@Shmee150Don't bother with those opinions, it's your car, spec it however you want.
@@Shmee150 if you ever run out of ideas for bold colors. Look up the 2015 Toyota Corolla green. One of the most beautiful greens ever made and imagine it with higher quality paint. 😍
I have always fancied a Ferrari in candy paint, from the factory that would be truly special
@@supermanblackedition I reckon Hakone Green is the best green I've seen on a car.
Love seeing how your laps have gotten faster and more confident. Thanks for sharing as always.
I test drove the 296 in Scottsdale recently. Fastest car I’ve been in. Just keeps pulling hard even to 140mph++. Recalibrated my sense of speed.
It looks really fast, like 100-200 is sick😅
forgot how much power this has being the entry level Ferrari what a machine!
Been watching your uploads for many a year Tim. Your enthusiasm, your quality uploads are a pleasure to watch, but more importantly is your humbleness. Thankyou 🙏
168mph at Schwedenkreuz is fab. Misha got 184mph there in the SF90 AF 😊😊😊
let misha drive it
misha is a mad man, huge respect for him
He let go a bit early. Guess 175 was possible
Your confidence driving this track is inspiring, vastly improved, loving it!!!
Love this car! Love the sounds it makes, the speed it carries, and the smiles it generates. Also loved the sound of that NSX!
Been waiting for this one! Proper induction for the shmeemobile done🔥
It's now officially in the club!
2nd lap could have had the rear window down to prominently capture the blow off valves more clearly. A very well spec'd little car & great sounding V6.
I’d be turning that emergency brake assist off straight away 👍🏼
That car is epic.
The speed it holds as a road spec and not racing spec.
It was a smily day for Shmee.
Thank you
😎😎😎👍👍👍
What a car and what a nice drive!! Tnx Tim
Very impressed with how smooth you were on all controls !
With that kind of input, speed will follow and you will become a very competitive driver !
Good job !
Thank you Sir, one of your best vids! I enjoyed this so much!
my favorite specd shmee mobile, the interior is beautiful, chefs kiss
I'm amazed how much love this spec gets! We did well
@@Shmee150 well deserved
Its a good spec, but i think it need some stripes or something over the car
Can’t believe Ferrari didn’t code the predictive brake system to turn off while in race mode. I could see that causing someone to lose control. Great job keeping the car stable when that occurred and nice laps!
You can turn it off. It's in the menu.
@@AB-80-X That's not the point. At the higher race modes I would expect it to be off.
I was almost worried that I would not hear "hi guys I'm Shmee" since it was unusually late 😂
The video many where looking forward to !!!
That hot lap with everything turned up was immense, got a real sense you wer3 pushing quite hard there fella, within both yours and the cars limits but still working it! I salute you sir for not just owning the best chi;a, but using it as enjoy would have desired! Say no to the show ponies and yes to using your toys!
Brilliant … great camera work, I was exhausted watching you ???? Wonderful car..👍
Love the whooshing and turbo flutters coming from the engine with the back window open, sounds great.
Oh my god, the 296 is just THE BEST looking Ferrari in such a long time! I absolutely adore this car 🥰🥰
VERY well done on this 296 GTS Tim 🥰❤️
Nothing like a ‘ring video! 🤩 Keep ‘em coming! Please put a mic closer to the engine so we can hear the turbos/blow off valves! 🤩🤩🤩
So proud 👏 and happy 😊 for you. You have come a long way from cars 🚗 and coffee ☕️ since the early mid-2000s
There's something about the 296 that appeals to me more than any of the other Ferrari's at the moment. It's definitely a very cool car and it sounds great.
I hope Ferrari do a limited version of one of these and imagine if they could raise the rev limiter by another 1000 rpm - to make it rev like a 911 GT3. Just imagine the sound of nigh-on 10'000 rpm. It would be utter spine tingling.
That was delicious fun to watch you enjoy yourself! Bravo!!
Shmee that was FREAKING AWESOME! Thanks for letting us enjoy the moment with you!
Thx, very nice onboard video. I don’t know why, but this 296, the sound and the car behavior seems a lot more fun than a perhaps faster SF90..what a machine 😂
"very freaking fast" 😂
Shmee150 Absolutely Incredible Video I'm so glad you had such an incredible time driving your Absolutely Gorgeous and Incredible 296 GTS on the Nurburgring Nordschleife and I can't wait to some Laps in your Purosangue
The 296 is Outstanding!! Favorite most rounded Shmee mobile, it does everything so well🫡
Been waiting for this all week
Looks like fun. Thanks for sharing
This is an incredible car! Love the V6 sound
Just incredible!!! 🧡👍🏼👍🏼
Beautiful car! You're having way too much fun, Schmee!
That thing sounds wild!
That's great that you're finally getting to break down the likes and dislikes of this car. Really break down the 296 to the SF90.
One of your better posts ever, Tim. Lovely car !!
Very exciting First time ever that I watched every second of your laps This is a special car
Some good driving there bud. Nice 😊
You can tell when Tim’s having fun
Good driving Shmee!
Great vid, glad to have a complete video with your normal voice, from now on talk like this rather than your presenter persona, so much better and easy to listen to.
LOVE seeing the blue line.. no chicken foot here 🎉
Wow that didn't disappoint - great driving 💪🏼
Thanks 👍
Great driving Tim - in a fantastic car! Viva Ferrari! Greatest brand!
Brad is chillin 🥵🗣️
Next Autobahn and road trip to Morocco
Not currently planned, but definitely more to come
Are you from Morocco
Have you driven a sports car in Monaco? It's awful. Sure you can pose around, but why else? If you want to drive from say Nice to somewhere in Italy, just go via La Turbie and skip Monte Carlo. Beautiful place and nice roads.
Hi Tim. Great to see you driving the Ferrari 4x4 near Lincoln on Wednesday . It’s a beast
Enjoyed this very much mr schmee 👍
this was fun to watch!!
Sounds epic 👌
Like most things in life, i just haven't got the energy to keep up. Thanks for taking us all along Tim, so we don't have to. Cheers.
I love how big Shmee’s smile is, takes up two thirds of the thumbnail!! 😂 congrats!!!
Another Shmee Nurburgring Christening... That looked fun...!
Great driving Shmee!! 🧡
The 296 sounds awesome !!
The car performed well on the laps. Truly a fast car
The whooshes and swooshes where unexpected from Ferrari !
Also, those shifts are rapid, wow
This might be one of my favorite cars of the new generation 😍
Hello from Argentina. Amazing laps! Great sound engine
Good commentary on the second lap.
The best-looking Ferrari on the road!
Epic to see a real life video on that track
Awesome!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for showing us what this car is capable of 👍 Don’t imagine many of these will be thrashed round the green hell 😊
But it's what they are built for!
@@Shmee150Silly me thought they were just for posing in Knightsbridge or Cars and Coffee 😂😂😂
This is the content i come here for!
My god that 296 gts is so freakin gorgeous man 😅😅 I am not a lover of orange but that shade with the gray is absolute bonkers!
Hi Tim great video! I know you have said you are worried about taking the Zenvo on the Nring because of the other drivers which is very valid! but what about getting to the track first thing, and going for a leisurely drive?
It was nice that you touched upon some of the little niggles some reviewers and vloggers seem to avoid. Like the fact that it can feel a bit unsettled. I've traced the AF GTB a few times, and interestingly enough, it also has this slightly nervous feeling. Can't say I like that feeling. And yep, there's something the SF90 has that the 296 just does not. Nothing wrong with either, but different cars, and the Sf90 is just a step above.
Than GT3RS on your second lap. That's why I only run the Ring at closed events. He was not happy to let you by, or he straight up did not see you.
@18:12 I could see that gap closing a few seconds before. I was surprised you were power on just before then. Braveeee
SHMEE150, A MAN OF THE PEOPLE 🗣️🗣️‼️
I enjoy thank you sir
I think qualifying mode just charges the battery as much as possible at the cost of fuel so that you never drain it and always have full power. You can see it charge even when you're not braking, with the combustion engine. Incredible technology
Can't wait for the TR-S turns
Love it!
Yess!! 🔥
Hi shmee! Another great video, I could watch laps at the ring all day whilst daydreaming about having a go myself.
Robert’s 488 spec is still the best I’ve ever seen. True class and not candy colored.
Fantastic video shmee. The sound of that car is unreal
that looks like a lot of fun!
Nice driving Shmeezus
Hands down 296 is my absolute dream car 🚗
Cant wait for the 296 GT3
Yep , Take it slow through this bit , it’s still wet , Speedo showing 150mph !! 😮, Hats off to you 👍
Let Micha drive it!!!!
That’s a quick car.. you weren’t pushing at all - lower revs, light braking and still motoring.. v capable car and driver 👍
tbh i love this design way more than the sf90 stradale
