Was great to have you take it for some laps Misha! Despite the issues 😅 You’ll have to have another go once the next stage of upgrades are done

[brz.oph]

This is my favorite channel as of 2023. Misha tha man

[ocavant]

Haha. That dash looks like a pinball machine just tilted. 😂

[krumkarapetrov]

It ain't a project car if you don't get random warnings and the "Christmas" lights on the instrument cluster every now and then

[julianpalmer]

Watching the video the ECU took the engine into protection mode during an 'over rev' when downshifting and the RPM topped 7000, or when upsifting with not enough throttle lift when dipping the clutch. Maybe time for a custom ECU so you have more control over the engine and can cut ignition over a set RPM if the clutch is depressed

[barronshelton]

man this guys videos of him driving is just getting better and better love it misha

[louiscronje]

That piece of wiring dangling by the throttle is driving me insane...

[mitchreviews]

I love how Misha goes from 0 to the moon with no mechanical sympathy lol

[vargaswalter]

0:15 love the shots at the beginning with the music, great editing. And amazing how you run Misha

That pull behind the Porsche as you passed the Ford was blisteringly quick. Well done. I love my VWs.

Your channel has inspired a generation of racing drivers 💪 Thank you for sharing!

The 4000rpm warning seems to happen after violently bouncing the RPM’s of the rev limiter

[liveseytowers]

I watched the owners video first and then this one, such a big difference in the camera quality on your lap. Your investment earlier in the year on equipment was well worth it.

[stevejones]

Love misha and his commitment to the ring. He’s living a dream that most of us can only imagine but the amount of hard work and time he has put in is incredible.

[KartiacKID]

I would love to see this car again once the bugs get worked out… great built 👍

[emmay]

The camera setup and dials here are perfection

[zeeevaax]

11:57 After that last cut, the light that nobody wants to see came on 😂

[jaylonchung]

There’s something about manual golfs that just sound and feel so much better, this was so satisfying to watch with headphones

Epc light is electronic power control module. Limits engine to 4k rpm to prevent engine damage. Same thing happened to me at 100F. Epc light started, kept resetting, then check engine light came on. Needed carbon cleaning and fried my coilpacks. Misfires in cylinder 1, 3, and 4

I'm impressed by the camera. Pointed directly at the sun and no blacking or dimming at all.
