      This Video Quality is on another Level, all the B-Roll and Stuff, just amazing.
      I think this might already be your best "investment" of this year :D
      And as always, i really like these garage Videos a lot.

      Oh damn did you get the editor you were looking for? I almost wished I was in the industry just so I could apply lol. Would love some more details.
      I will say that time and time again I've seen budding youtubers up their production quality and almost immediately massively increase their audience. I know a lot of people here love the simple vlogs, but there's definitely room for some more high-brow content.

    Can't wait to see this GTI on track! Nice video! I'll continue watching it! Also, to be completely honest, I am satisfied with the new tryshots. Effects look good. Generally speaking, your cameraman is doing a good job with you!
    One more thing: have a nice trip up to Sweeden tomorrow!

    8:00 - interesting topic. Misha, maybe you could tell more about how to drive a stock/daily car on the track and enjoy it, but without risk of damaging brakes, bearings, etc? I mean - how to enjoy track driving without going crazy with sport suspension, big brake kit and ending with ringtool.
    I would love to see explaining efective smooth lap while keeping in mind stock car components.

    Ester/PAO based Redline 5W-40 is a FANTASTIC oil. Thicker oil film at operating temp than a petroleum 20W-50(!!). Much higher levels of ZDDP than found in newer "eco-friendly" oils. It's very expensive but 100% worth it. MUCH cooler oil temps (by 20-30F on average), smoother power delivery with a much more noticeable "hit" of power when you get on it and much quieter valvetrain noise. I love this stuff. I'm basing my opinion coming from other great synthetics; LIQUI-MOLY Leichtlauf High Tech 5W-40, MOTUL 8100 X-CESS Gen2 and MOTUL Specific 505 01 502 00. These are all great oils but I was blown away at the difference, it's on another level entirely.

    Great video with the GTI! Enjoyed the more technical format in the shop. Curious if you looked into adding MK8 rear control arm covers? Currently have a MK7 and adding them helped with high speed stability (less drag)

    yeah now that someone is filming you and with some nice b-roll this feels like a level-up in quality. I really like the vlog style content but for things like a tech video with george this is a nice way to do it, I'm sure you will find ways to improve it even more

    Great series, sorry it does not get a large amount of viewing. I found it very interesting to see how many manufacturers there are now who make advanced products compared to 30 years ago. 30 years ago you could get Ferodo brake pads and Koni shocks.

    I am a big fan of Michelin tires. My 3 series BMW has Bridgestone and they are horrible. Last one had better Pirelli tires. The M2 had Continental tires which seemed odd as my other M-cars had Pilot Sports. 911 has Pirelli P7, with it had PS4.

    I have exactly the same car... the big topic on many of the GTi forums is when to service the VAQ diff, you mentioned the DSG oil change but not anything on the VAQ diff... what will you be doing with this as I expect it's taking quite a hit on the track.
