Same here. It sounded like he’d never tracked a car until he was disabled. But after he did he never stopped. Once he’s in that car his “disability” no longer hampers him but instead he becomes one with it. This is his therapy and it’s beautiful to watch. You can tell this guy has a lot of seat time when he’s talking about needing harness in 6th gear 😂
Not only he does this, but he goes really fucking hard. Look at his eyes, the man is on a mission, what a lap. He was happy with your compliment, one of the greatest videos in your channel.
The guy in the wheelchair just schooled an able body driver like Misha where it stated that a disabled person can still drive no matter what disabilities they have. What next is a blind person driving that track this one would break the narrow minded people's ego 😅😅😅
This lap was absolutely incredible. Dude kept his eyes on the horizon, so focused and smooth in his motions. His lines were better than most and you can tell he has a great understanding of that car. This was a very good watch!
One of the cleanest laps EVER seen on the ring. This is right up there with absolute prodriver skills. Just wow. Edit: thx for all the likes on the comment❤️👍
Absolutely. There are pro drivers that drive with hand controls! I can't remember the name of the team but I think Jimmy Broadbent or someone did a video with them.
he is really driving the car on limits with so much confidence. forget about the disability...this is one of the best amateur drivers I have ever seen on this track. give him a contract! such an inspiration.
This guy has some serious skills behind the wheel. All of the passenger laps you’ve done Misha, this dude is one of the best I’ve ever seen. His control and smoothness is incredible!
I'll be honest, the intro and small chat made this video even more awesome. Just meeting someone out of the blue and hopping in for a lap, having fun and talking. This is so cool and shows how great the community can be to meet people! This guy is a fucking badass and drives like a champ too!
Forget any handicaps for a moment - this guy has real *talent* behind the wheel! Very smooth, despite having probably the busiest hands of any of us when driving for sure. The coordination required to operate all those controls by hand simultaneously is amazing - and he does so flawlessly and without hesitation. Top it all off with excellent concentration and a certain required bravado and it all means a wonderful lap from an impressive gentleman! -Ed on the Ridge
Crazy good technique and very tidy for the most part. This guy laps the ring far better than most people with both hands and feet available. His humility in knowing he has more to learn means he’ll get even better over time.
The lap he’s done is what you would expect from an experienced pro pilot. Very impressive, and he did that apparently with no effort. The way he nails schwedenkreuz which is imo the hardest part of the track, is just… wow.
knowing fact that video always showing actual speed slower than it is, but in this video all looks very fast. Soo calmly concentrated. Insane driving skillz!
Thanks for 1.5M watching 😍🤯 Dont forget we do this lap with PS4S tires... This season i come with recaro seat harnais and roll cage. I want play with big boys ! My target this year is do sub 7.40 Hope make another vidéo with Misha when i will be verry good.
Amazing lap. Do you usually use MDM with your M2C? I find that very interesting since most people are not smooth enough to keep it enabled. It barely activates for you! Also, what brake pads do you use?
damn near became a quadriplegic on a motorcycle 4 years ago, seeing this made me tear up this is truly beautiful seeing that man live life to the fullest despite any barriers
The shock in Misha's face after the lap is hilarious! He's actually speechless for a moment. Kodus to the driver!!! Not many people with no handicap have such control over their car. Amazing lap!
Guy is simply legend 😮 Misha i have seen how you drive, but he is controlling every second of this track, everything is under perfect control. He is much better driver then lot of people without disability. Respect 🙏
This guy took what life gave him and made something special. Incredible driver and human. God Bless him going forward and hope to see him again on the channel.
That man is an incredible driver. He takes that BMW to its limit in a way few drivers will. His control is up there with the greats. Thanks for sharing this Misha!
I'm really proud of our disable brother. You're a true DEFINITION of DISABILITY IS NOT INABILITY. You've learned to turn wounds into wisdom and enjoying life. The strong do not loom on other people's paths, neither do they trade in happiness, nor do they beg for love. Stay strong and go for it.
Amazing lap, without considering his personal challenge that was an amazing lap, his corner speeds were insane especially for a guy trying not to slip from his seat ! Great post Misha, we need to see more of this guy, the way he passed the slower cars clearly shows his balls were not injured.
"the way he passed the slower cars clearly shows his balls were not injured." This is one of the best comments I've read so far here on TH-cam, since it not only makes you laugh, but also because it almost is an understatement!
I'm a disabled driver as well and try my best to improve my driving because it's a good way for me to expand my horizons. I can't afford a great car or to track the Nurburgring but I have a ok sim rig to practice on and learn a bit more every day. Thanks for the video!
I watched the whole thing, I am impressed! The driver is very smooth, especially considering getting thrown around in the seat and having to keep his hands stable which have low shoulder support from seat and having issues that dont allow pressing his hips firmly to the seat etc. This seems to be a haven for him, I bet he would enjoy a custom simulator for the days it rains or snows. Misha always meets such grand people in his sessions.
I got all my limbs and I'm sitting here watching in awe. What a super human! He's laser focused through the corners and is driving like he's going on a Sunday stroll. Absolute legend!
Every single fully functional driver can learn something from this lap. Absolutely incredible. What a legend. I hope the "I need you on my racing team" wasn't a throw away. This man is a gem.
His words: You can still enjoy your life, have passion.. I've never seen Misha so calm, speechless and also excited, and all of this at the passenger seat.. Man, this video was awesome It could have a sport like this
He drives like if there are no curves, he uses the car at it's maximun capacities, he shows an amazing confidence, also we want to know about the car setup MIsha, what a driver!! He and the other disability driver from a few days ago (Don't remember the car, sorry) are exceptional track drivers. They inspire me!!! Great video!!!
I also race with hand controls as well. It becomes second nature after a while and it always amazes people when you blow by them on the track, then they see you throw your wheelchair out and tend to the race car. Keep spreading the knowledge so people don’t think everyone with disabilities is “helpless”.
One of the most inspiring and fucking badass laps man , yeah he should be on your team with the KTM guy. This guy with new seats, your help will be a beast. He'll have my support on a patreon or whatever for making his skills/car better for sure. Thanks for your awesome channel Misha, I'm glad really humble guys like you still exist.
It's very interesting to see how he works with the modifications for throttle and brake and still shifts with the paddles. I mean, that's a lot of work you have to do with your hands. Great lap man. great lap. I enjoyed it!
Bro its ur channel , but he got all the followers. Honestly speaking i think he is a better driver.. hats off , god took 2 legs , gave him 4 wheels.. . And you too r a legend. Praising him
His lines on the road, as well as putting in the throttle at the right moments, braking at the right moments. Damn he really is a pro. Overtaking everyone. Really nice, super impressed!!
Couldn't have said it better. I also thought:" What an incredible understanding of the Track. Hits the throttle way before any understanding about the next corner. Great line."
Too pity that everyone can only hit the like button once for this...... this guy is for real, and this is why exactly the Ring is the temple of speed where people transcend themselves with passion and skill. Excellent video Misha, thank you for letting us see the impossible possible.
omg this guy is just an insane driver. Big up to him to not giving up and overtake his disability. And i also want to thank you to be this humble and this respectfull to everybody !! it's really inspirating me
Very very rarely do we see Misha so quiet and focused, even rarer is to hear him swear. And to see him calculating and processing what he is experiencing to such a level was almost a one off. And I have to say that "Axl" deserved and earned every ounce of Misha`s respect and admiration. I hope you found a new friend Misha = )
Very impressive. Homie definitely needs a harness and a seat that keeps him from moving around so much; few people realize that when you have lost control below the waist there are a lot of muscles we aren’t thinking about that we use all the time and take for granted. I imagine that could be quite disconcerting as a driver to be bounced around so much without leg and gluteal muscles to brace with. I give him all the credit; I wouldn’t be surprised if he was quite competitive in racing. Cheers! 🖖😎👍
Very much enjoyed this lap around the ring. Thie gentleman has fantastic smooth connecting lines from corner to corner. He uses the midrange of the engine without abusing it which provides a stable and controlled car with excellent transitions without binding the car in the middle of the corner and allowing it to release out to the end of the exit. Beautiful to watch. Once he has full race seat and harness holding him inplace he will immediately be quicker. Thank you gentleman wonderful video.
My dude is getting it done! I'm a 34 year (driving) paraplegic myself and I believe that our ability to brake better than many able bodied people is because we sense more through our hands & fingers. I really like his setup, could you provide info about it please? Does dude havve a YT channel?
That's a very valid point! On my motorcycle I feel so much more through the brake lever and any change in traction is detectable as opposed to my feet that are doing dumb things. Even on the bike, the rear brake requires a different type actuation. While popping a wheelie the rear brake can be controlled but its still rough compared to the front where the lever has more feel.
@@Gmvv87 woah! That's awesome! Damn, we almost met - only like 1, 2 days apart. Would have been very cool, two Corrados on the track :) Are you on VWVortex or somewhere?
@@stoneeh Bro that would be sick. Im already hyped when i meet corrado owners on the road. But on Nordschleife i would loose my mind.😂 I'm only on corrado database.
Es ist einfach sehr bewundernswert, wie achtsam Bremse und Gas bedient werden MÜSSEN, weil ja quasi meist nur eine Hand am Steuer ist. Dazu noch die sparsamen Bewegungen, die Übersicht, die Linie vor Allem, einfach ein purer Genuss. Man, kann der Junge fahren, das ist echt ein Augenschmaus.
What an inspiration this guy is, truly amazing taking into consideration he doesn't have the balance that a fully abled driver has. The way he has mastered those hand controls is sick!!
wow, what a force. He was just being himself, not trying to do much, was at peace on the road, one with the vehicle, humble, yet about it. That man has a gift!!!! Misha, thanks for blessing us with this video!!!! We are here to share the shine…respect to both of you.
awesome lap. no holding bak just on it from the get go. think Misha enjoyed the lap n also Misha was thinking how did u get through that corner so fast. laser focused as well. was thinking the same thing Misha, he should be racing but is he allowed to race.
There's lots of guys like him with racing licences, there's a guy in GT3 or GT4 racing in the US this year, can't remember his name but he has to do driver changes during the race, Rj in Oz
This video flies straight into my personal top 3 Micha content of all times. Talks straight into the heart ❤️ Edit: not primarily due to the disability itself (have both a colleague and a reletive each in a wheel chair and both too driving very well behind wheels of similar setups) - but doing it soo smoothely on the edge, almost perfection for each corner in early brake and very fast out, perfect feeding, down gearing, trail braking, etc, etc. It's just a pure joy watching again and again, at least as good (if not better) as watching Micha being a guest with Kubica behind the wheel. There can't be a handful of this guy. Just supreme.
Amazing. Just speechless. That guys a wheelman. I cannot speak for this, but I would imagine learning a different balance in a wheelchair could potentially help him in the car. He said he drives better now Than before his disability.
Makes me so damn happy to see that this guys disability doesn't stop him from doing what he (and probably all of us) love: driving fast! Sick car also, loved the video!
I drove the Nürburgring with hand controls several years ago (very slowly in a lifted Dodge Ram!), but this dude's driving is on another level. I've never seen dual-throttle hand controls like this, and would love to learn more about it. Misha, please feature him again, or do a more focused video with him, in the future if you see him again -- even if it is in Deutsch with subtitles. Such an awesome video and amazing lap. Mahalo to both of you!
@@btd1114 I see that one, but he also has a thumb-controlled throttle above the brake lever handle on the right side. He said he uses that one in cornering, and the left side throttle lever for straighter/less challenging driving.
@@chetubetchaIII Basically the right thumb lever is the same rod going to the other side. On the left you are pulling to accelerate, on the right you are pushing to accelerate.
That is fantastic. Man I was smiling through the whole video, what a guy, a true legend showing that a disability doesn't have to stop you from having this type of fun. Great video as always Misha!
Inspiring is an understatement. I literally had shivers watching this! And he made it look so easy and smooth, like a pro! Huge respect and keep on driving :)
I just see a very fast lap with a very humble dude behind the wheel. Nothing special, just doing what he loves and doing it very, very well. I am happy such companies exist to make everyone keep enjoying their passions. Kudos, and to you Misha for being able to take us with you, uncensored, asking the right questions and giving mad respect to everyone around you. Much appreciated.
That was so smooth men, steering with one hand and hitting all the lines that's just amazing! incredible skills! Thanks Misha for sharing videos like this to your community! Keep being humble you're doing just great 👏👊
He reminded that we the "ables" should strive more on our goals when we're still able. Dont need to talk about his driving (it's REALLY GOOD) we can understand that anything isn't forever even our opportunities. If we dont wanna be late for something we want, the perfect time to do is NOW.
Thank you Misha for the variety of videos you shoot. this one will be remembered as the most impressive and inspiring. the expression on your face speaks for you. big respect to the driver he has the passion in his hands.
Got really emotional for me watching that. Because literally that's his escape from his wheelchair. That's his freedom. I can feel that strongly
Same here. It sounded like he’d never tracked a car until he was disabled. But after he did he never stopped. Once he’s in that car his “disability” no longer hampers him but instead he becomes one with it. This is his therapy and it’s beautiful to watch.

Wow! I can only imagine how well he would do with a fully built race car with a proper seat lol. Amazing driver and seems like a great guy!
Thank you so much 🙏
What a beast! Better driver than many of us here in comments ❤
@@nashsutton1467well said.... that was beautifully put.
*he turned his 'disability' into a 'super power'* Man is a Legend 💪🏻✌🏻
💪💪😃❤️
He can cut those legs off for weight savings too😎 I assume they don't do much anyway
True, insane driving
Thank you so much 😍🥲
@@axl-nbr this world's a small place, if we ever meet, the booze is on me 🥂🥇
Not only he does this, but he goes really fucking hard. Look at his eyes, the man is on a mission, what a lap. He was happy with your compliment, one of the greatest videos in your channel.
💯
Props to him for not letting a disability keep him from enjoying his passion. One of my favorite Misha videos so far 💪
agreed 1000% what a life exemple !!!
Thank you so much 😍😍😍🙏🙏🙏
@@axl-nbr subscribed 💪🏻
Not only that but he does it with such style. I'm subscribing
Thank you so much everybody 😍😍🙏🙏
Your facial expressions and your peering at the speedo say it all Misha. Amazing driver
Yeah i think might relt just a bit uneasy troughout the ride😃😁
Literally read my mind, Misha looks like a kid in a candy shop hahahah. Driver is a mad lad
LOL! True that.
Misha has got that child smile going on!!!
The guy in the wheelchair just schooled an able body driver like Misha where it stated that a disabled person can still drive no matter what disabilities they have. What next is a blind person driving that track this one would break the narrow minded people's ego 😅😅😅

He drove the track on “expert” difficulty and made it look easy. Mad props.
One of the cleanest laps EVER seen on the ring. This is right up there with absolute prodriver skills.
Just wow.
Edit: thx for all the likes on the comment❤️👍
Silky smooth, makes it look easy.
Absolutely. There are pro drivers that drive with hand controls! I can't remember the name of the team but I think Jimmy Broadbent or someone did a video with them.
Even the control during those enthusiastic overtakes was perfect
Agreed...super fast...but super clean too. Impressive.
Very very smooth ❤️
he is really driving the car on limits with so much confidence. forget about the disability...this is one of the best amateur drivers I have ever seen on this track. give him a contract! such an inspiration.

Yes that was so smoth... :O
100% agreed. Nothing else to add.
Came here for this comment get this man on a team driving competitively mishas no slouch at all around the ring to see him this impressed shows ALOT
Totally agree
The lap he’s done is what you would expect from an experienced pro pilot. Very impressive, and he did that apparently with no effort. The way he nails schwedenkreuz which is imo the hardest part of the track, is just… wow.
90% with one hand on steering, I can´t imagine... all the corrections 🤯
Even mentioning he still didn't know the ring too good at all like wtf my guy you made people jealous that have been driving here their whole life 😏
So smooth, never unsettling the car, using all of the track. He is very high level. Impressive and very enjoyable to watch
When Misha is quiet in the passenger seat, you know it's fast. I swear it seems like those hand controls actually make him drive smoother.
knowing fact that video always showing actual speed slower than it is, but in this video all looks very fast. Soo calmly concentrated. Insane driving skillz!
The fact that he's not using the auto transmission is crazy. What an awesome genuine guy.
he is, it was in manual mode the whole time.
paddle shifting is hard you say?
@@taylorhickman84 if its not the only thing you need to do with your hands besides steering? Ofc its not easy
@@YuokoII Don't get me wrong, I find his driving impressive, just not that aspect of it
The way you asked him to take you for a ride,like a little kid,you are an amazing human being bro,great experience to watch thank you ❤
My mans face told the whole story xD I've never seen Misha so emotional as a passenger before. Credit to the driver 💪🏽
Thanks for 1.5M watching 😍🤯
Dont forget we do this lap with PS4S tires...
This season i come with recaro seat harnais and roll cage. I want play with big boys !
My target this year is do sub 7.40
Hope make another vidéo with Misha when i will be verry good.
Amazing lap. Do you usually use MDM with your M2C? I find that very interesting since most people are not smooth enough to keep it enabled. It barely activates for you! Also, what brake pads do you use?
@@chrisbradley3224 yes i drive with MDM , and i use pagid yelow
bonnr chance mec!
Terrific driving and so smooth on the controls. To say that this lap is impressive is an understatement of the highest order.
I hope BMW do something for you fella! Though watching it I'm not sure what they could add, looked pretty perfect!
damn near became a quadriplegic on a motorcycle 4 years ago, seeing this made me tear up this is truly beautiful seeing that man live life to the fullest despite any barriers
Ok this was beyond impressive. The kind of driving skills he has is mind boggling. What a gem of a guy.
Misha's face reactions just speak for this guy's skills. What a skills!
Mischa loved that. What a G the owner is.
The racing lanes are PERFECTLY FOLLOWED this is really really really impressive, and the corners speed are just AMAZING. what a man ! what a legend !
The shock in Misha's face after the lap is hilarious! He's actually speechless for a moment. Kodus to the driver!!! Not many people with no handicap have such control over their car. Amazing lap!
More like speechless for minutes
That lap was so clean I started to wonder if through hard work his “disability” turned into an advantage. Incredible lap.
Easy to see a Heightened sense of awareness with car and road . Wow . Awesome observation .
Someone sponsor this man with seats and harness. What a driver!! One of my favorite Misha videos!
This was 10x better than expected. Mad props to the driver, you are an inspiration.
Guy is simply legend 😮 Misha i have seen how you drive, but he is controlling every second of this track, everything is under perfect control. He is much better driver then lot of people without disability. Respect 🙏

awesome lap. no holding bak just on it from the get go. think Misha enjoyed the lap n also Misha was thinking how did u get through that corner so fast. laser focused as well. was thinking the same thing Misha, he should be racing but is he allowed to race.
I wouldn't know why not
There's lots of guys like him with racing licences, there's a guy in GT3 or GT4 racing in the US this year, can't remember his name but he has to do driver changes during the race, Rj in Oz
24h NBR or VLN is my dream...
Thank you men
I'm also a hard-core Audi fan only but all of a sudden I have respect for this M2 miracles happen
Hallelujah ♥️
Best driving video you've shared this year so far Misha, really impressive driving skills!
This video flies straight into my personal top 3 Micha content of all times. Talks straight into the heart ❤️
Edit: not primarily due to the disability itself (have both a colleague and a reletive each in a wheel chair and both too driving very well behind wheels of similar setups) - but doing it soo smoothely on the edge, almost perfection for each corner in early brake and very fast out, perfect feeding, down gearing, trail braking, etc, etc. It's just a pure joy watching again and again, at least as good (if not better) as watching Micha being a guest with Kubica behind the wheel. There can't be a handful of this guy. Just supreme.
Amazing. Just speechless. That guys a wheelman.
I cannot speak for this, but I would imagine learning a different balance in a wheelchair could potentially help him in the car. He said he drives better now
Than before his disability.
Misha doesn’t want to admit that this legend is a better driver than him haha.
What an inspiration
never let disabilities hold you down. what a superb driving man :) love it
Makes me so damn happy to see that this guys disability doesn't stop him from doing what he (and probably all of us) love: driving fast! Sick car also, loved the video!
Absolutely Incredible, Real Passion can never be stopped. This definitely goes in the top 10 Misha Videos
I drove the Nürburgring with hand controls several years ago (very slowly in a lifted Dodge Ram!), but this dude's driving is on another level. I've never seen dual-throttle hand controls like this, and would love to learn more about it. Misha, please feature him again, or do a more focused video with him, in the future if you see him again -- even if it is in Deutsch with subtitles. Such an awesome video and amazing lap. Mahalo to both of you!
It's not dual throttle, those are paddle shifters and his throttle is behind the left paddle shifter
@@btd1114 I see that one, but he also has a thumb-controlled throttle above the brake lever handle on the right side. He said he uses that one in cornering, and the left side throttle lever for straighter/less challenging driving.
@@chetubetchaIII Basically the right thumb lever is the same rod going to the other side. On the left you are pulling to accelerate, on the right you are pushing to accelerate.
@@zorrothebug Ah, roger that. Makes sense! Thank you!
Not clickbait at all.. really good driving, you can see even misha is impressed
Magnificent driving. . The speed he carrys through the corners is nuts. Misha I love your expressions. Awesome video
He drives so clean at high speed, so impressive and an inspiration for many others. Really, great driving!
This one is great. Always shift at 6.5, break only a little and balancing into corner, not turn.
Man, I could watch his laps for hours. The M2 sounds so good too. Love to see a future videos of him with the seat harnesses.
That is fantastic. Man I was smiling through the whole video, what a guy, a true legend showing that a disability doesn't have to stop you from having this type of fun. Great video as always Misha!
Inspiring is an understatement. I literally had shivers watching this! And he made it look so easy and smooth, like a pro! Huge respect and keep on driving :)
4:36 from this point and on, Misha immediately knew shit was about to get next-level serious.
"Don't judge a book by its cover" at its finest. Very impressive driving, especially when even Misha is in awe.
I just see a very fast lap with a very humble dude behind the wheel. Nothing special, just doing what he loves and doing it very, very well.
I am happy such companies exist to make everyone keep enjoying their passions. Kudos, and to you Misha for being able to take us with you, uncensored, asking the right questions and giving mad respect to everyone around you. Much appreciated.
What a MAD lad. Absolutely stunning driving skills
So much heartfelt love for the man who refuses to be held back. Massive respect mate
"Insame" is an appropriate moniker for this guy. It would take a bit of insanity to do what he does. Great job!
now tell me how you couldnt have a perfect lap because you had wrong shoes or the seat was uncomfortable! incredible! I take my hat off for this man!
When are you bringing the Clio finally :(
@@mgcharoudin next year i promise! need to make it a little bit quicker first...
This guy is amazing ! Well done
That was so smooth men, steering with one hand and hitting all the lines that's just amazing! incredible skills! Thanks Misha for sharing videos like this to your community! Keep being humble you're doing just great 👏👊
Thanks for the ride, both of you, the lines and direction changes were perfect really interesting to watch haha good fun.
This lap is on that Kubica lap level! Just wow, wow! Big props to both you guys!
i see what you mean, kubica had better lines and that should be expected from him :P
they both drove them hard.
This was AWESOME! Need to show my friend this video, just so he has better reference points for cornering speed 😂
He reminded that we the "ables" should strive more on our goals when we're still able. Dont need to talk about his driving (it's REALLY GOOD) we can understand that anything isn't forever even our opportunities. If we dont wanna be late for something we want, the perfect time to do is NOW.
This is a absolute fantastic driver and your impressions say it all. Such a beautiful round 🔥
Thank you Misha for the variety of videos you shoot. this one will be remembered as the most impressive and inspiring. the expression on your face speaks for you. big respect to the driver he has the passion in his hands.
I'm watching this as I wait for the removal of my leg this fills me with hope and joy ❤
