Yesssss I’m glad you did this I was searching hard for this 💯
Yes baby heading over there now!
Five years from now we'll see this hands on engineering student being part of a Formula 1 team. Passion, brains, hard work and dedication always leads to great success.
I certainly hope so!
@@mgcharoudin There must be a race team that could get this guy under contract.
Depends on what he wants to do in 5 years. People change views and passions, this happens too.
I wish we had these cars in the US. I can't wait to see how this one turns out next year.
@@johnmichaeltwist5086 Hes a mechanical engineering student. He clearly is already in his 3rd year most likely since he knows how to use CAD properly for vehicles and understands aerodynamics the way he does. He is definitely not going to quit lmao
To side with the student. His level of intelligence is growing but his drive for further understanding, implementation of his education and growth mean he needs to be hired by an R&D or experimental division. As an engineer myself, a person that leaves their mind open while using the fundamental engineering processes to search for information to further knowledge and understanding is a great attribute.
Fully agree, although with his attitude, skills and comprehension etc - something tells me he's going to have his own R&D department, besides few others in his own company. :D great attitude. Just give bit of time, some small project with some funds and watch how magic happens.
@@marcin8432 absolutely
@@ReNCaTzZz VC or incubator you’re thinking? 🥸
he would fit perfectly in koeniggsegesgeesseg team.
Your right, those jobs are so hard to get tho
i can't immagine how stressed he must have been when letting you drive alone, after all the hours he put into it! verry verry generous from him !!
It was probably less stressful for him to not go lol
It was Goodyear for him in a way, you could say Misha made the job of a test driver to get the max performance out of the car, and the real life info is all he needed
If your scared it’s gonna break you didn’t build it strong enough. Always test to the max
@@sighfly2928what’s more stressful is this guy interrupting him after he asked him a question and wants to pretend like he knows what’s he talking about and clearly has no idea I’m talking about Misha here
How u ever gunna build it strong enough if you always "test to the max" and break it hahaha just joking@mosaclipz6549
Coming back to this video just to ask you to take this car out for a drive again when there's new updates on it. This was one of the coolest videos you ever did, everything about it is great.
Yessss!
@@ryanwaege7251
@LuizHartkopf
Yes, we need part two!
agree@@ryanwaege7251
Yes please. I think this and the pink Puma are my absolute favorite of all them.
I was looking for the second video. Really wanna see this car dialed in.
That fact that this student engineered, home built opel speedster can keep a cayman gt4 in sight... and it's not even finished yet speaks volumes. Excellent video!!
But how good was the driver in the GT4, and it doesn't have the diffuser
@@marklangren3142 It still has 400+ hp and all the advanced driver-assistance systems so a complete moron can drive it fast.
@@marklangren3142GT4 obv would probably be faster if someone more pro was driving but he was still pushing it it seemed from the video so that’s still pretty impressive nonetheless
You have to bring this guy back when the car is completed 👌🏾
I second this!
As aerospace engineering student, this guy is everything I strive to be. Hats off to him, great guy, great car :)
Mechanical engineering student here, same, the dude takes what he learns, puts it beautifully into practice, and does so in the coolest way possible
Trueno lover, please keep combustion engines alive as you go into the auto field in the future and keep enthusiasts like yourself and us all in mind.
That after lap feedback is the highest honor you can get when Misha drives your car, especially that you customize. Kudos to him and what an amazing lap Misha!
I had the pleasure to meet Lapo at the car park and he took me for a warm-up lap before Misha. Honestly it is an amazing machine and I was blown away. Lapo is a legend and was super kind to offer me a lap (basically I was a complete stranger who loves speedsters). His passion for the car and his work is obvious. He is a true engineer trying and testing his development. Get that man an internship and a job in F1!
That's super cool, I like the guy even more! 👍
He needs a CZcams channel, I want to follow this build to completion! 💯
Takeaways:
- Misha needs a VLN drive. Holding pace with a Cayman GT4 and an M2 in a homebrew build he's only just driving for the first time is fucking impressive.
- Lapo needs to start his own aftermarket parts business. Plenty of time attack racers would pay well for what he can crank out.
- The Opel Speedster is too beautiful for this world. That the Lotus Elise and its variants no longer exist is proof we have failed as a species.
Remember also that they overtook him because the car would bottom out and he couldn't go through he carrousels and needed to stay off the throttle sometimes
I very much prefer the Elise/Exige design wise over the Speedster but it has its own wonderful, boxy charm to it that I adore
@@Myrtilys honestly i really dislike how they look but this one looks awesome with the diffuser and splitter
@@Ferrari255GTO plus he didn’t realize the engine revved a lil over 6 till the near end too
I don't think he's the marketing guy. He's a brains guy. He should be given money and access to proper means, this is the guy that makes your car win.
agile, nimble, responsive and fun to drive, this is what a pure motorsport vehicle should be like. Kudos to the owner for his masterpiece
First mod breakdown I've actually watched all the way through. Maddddd props to this guy. Going places for sure.
Loud, fast, uncomfortable, and exhilarating - this car is proof that a track car doesn't need to be an F40 or F50 to be exciting. It's even more impressive that it was done on a student's budget.
Tbh i'm not sure the old ferraris couls finish even one nurburgring lap without breaking down
Im a student and i cant afford to own nor to modify a opel speedster, this is more than surely daddys money, great for the guy that he has also the talent to make a car like this
@@adriigonzaalez1788 Yup same, studying aerospace and I can't even afford a 90s civic lol
@@adriigonzaalez1788 I study electronic and I have one e30 coupe and an e46 touring. I’m not rich by any mean and paid for them myself. I work and live in my parents house. You can do lots of things as a student depending the situation :)
@@currymasterrace7153 yeah, but that speedster alone is more than 20k+ mods, your cars are 10k,15k at most
This is such an amazing video! I’d much rather see home grown builds like this then $5m hyper cars, any day all day long. What an absolute cool smart and passionate guy.
I was just thinking about comparing this to the $2M Bentley that just came out!
Yeah cause its a track focus car not a luxury exotic. Does the exterior & interior of this thing speak high end to you? This thing drive good, but about everything else.....i dont know, questionable, like the damn Safety rate on this thing! Plus i cant tell how good this thing drives in normal setting...given it uses ground effect for high speed traction.
@@changsangma1915 Track focused cars evoke passion in me far more than overpriced luxury exotics.
And you can see how mischa's reaction is way superior to driving a million dollar car. This must be such a joy to drive with all the challenges, which to me, same as Lapo is a good thing. Must be so involving. Can't wait to see a new version with kinks ironed out as he said and a beast of a wing. Makes me wish i went into mechanical engineering myself
Basically he’s saying, if he had the funding and resources he could build the greatest track car ever, somebody FUND this man.
Wow that's an amazing project. I'm an aerospace engineer and seeing all the aero work explained and manufactured in such detail, it definitely makes the project more unique. And the fact that he points out all of the improvements that should be done in order to increase efficiency, that for sure is how a proper engineer should always think. Congrats to Lapo for this astonishing work.
Fun fact about those Ecotec engines is here in the states we got the 2.0 variant with a factory supercharger in the cobalt SS. The 2.2 I believe the weak point is the rods. But with new rods and pistons along with an upgraded valve springs these things are capable of monstrous power. The 2.0 in stock form can easily push over 450hp to the wheels. GM even has a handbook for the Ecotec line on how to build these engines and what fails at certain power levels.
Is that engine in the Pontiac Solstice as well? Once rode as a passenger in one - very nice.
It's originally an Opal engine we we're lucky to get in the Cobalt through GM owning Opel. Now that GM partnered with Honda we might be getting Honda engines in our small GM cars. That would be awesome if they brought the Cobalt back with a K20c.
@@schumifannreins295 yes and no. The LSJ was the supercharged version that was in the Ion Redline and Cobalt SS. They used the LNF in later Cobalt motors which was the turbo variant. Yes they did use the LNF (2.0T) in the Solstice GXP and Sky Redline but no they didn't use the supercharged variant (LSJ). The standard Sky and Solstice used the LE5 which was a NA 2.4L.....and there's a bastard year for the Cobalt SS that used this motor.
In this car it has the L61 which was a 2.2L. LSJ parts were simple bolt ons, like the supercharger thats on this car. I used to own a 04 Ion and my friend had a 04 Ion Redline and his friend had an 05 Cobalt SS. Lots of time spend upgrading.
@@camarodreams7689 Thank you both.
@@camarodreams7689 And it is those M62 superchargers from the scrapyards that we bolt onto these speedsters for cheaps.
With those on a 2.2 we reach a bit over 300 bhp. With the harrop 1320 supercharger that was developped for the lsj we squeeze up to 400 bhp out it.
When putting it on a 2.4 ecotec it goes up to 500 bhp. Good times. We love the ecotec family here.
Woah! I must confess I cheated and checked the timeline when starting the video; and thought a car having 13min intro AND a 5min outro: this must be something special.
A supercharged Opel Speedster with custom brakes, custom self built aero, basically custom everything... no power steering, no nonsense! Seeing Mischa going from uncertain face to worried face to happy face through every corner was just a delight.
Congrats to Lapo on his awesome build. One can only wish he gets the possibility to share his passion for automotive engineering as a job. 😆
His face when the VTech kicks in. Wow!
Hi There,
As an engineer myself, and a teamchief in a race team and extreme motorsport enthousiast... WOW!!!
What a build!
You can see it has power in abundance for this type of car, but many people can increase power I guess.
What I am most impressed about is that you actually see the down force working.
A good driver can carry some speed through a corner up to the point where the car reaches its limit and becomes nervous and hard to control.
But the way this car goes through a corner... It is SO stable!!
The way you carried decent speed through the corners throughout this lap, and have it so stable tells me 2 things:
- that you were definitely not driving on the car's limit (makes sence ;) )
- there is much more potential in this car!
Massive kudos to this guy who built the car!
Thanks man! Be ready for this year.
I can only imagine what that thing will be like when finished. Amazing piece of machinery.
Yeah, the bottoming out makes me want to see the suspension upgraded, but I remembered he wasn't finished yet. _That_ should wait until he is finished so that he knows what he's working with. I would LOVE to see @Misha Charoudin take this thing out when it's finished-finished so that he can see the difference from this experience!
@@Entrepid83 plus put some soft dunlop direzza's or ar-1 on it
How did you get the nordchleife in your name?
@@vargasaidan7366 supporter of the channel
Yoooooooo, how tf did u get that nurburgring thing on the end of ur name.
Impressive car owner. He didn't wish about what he didn't have, just made the best of what he did have. With stickier tires and a bit of tuning to give more balance and confidence, it will be a Cayman killer.
Dude, you're super genuine, humble, respectful and honest. I totally respect you. Fair play.
Thanks man ✌️
It's awesome that you treated his car with great respect as well as drove it how it was meant to be driven! I bet this was quite the experience for him.
That thing is unreal...what momentum that car carries. Well done to the engineer!
The fact it does it without needing a wing, is testament to how damned good the design geometry is in practical application. Outstanding work. =]
I wonder why ground effect was banned??
@@Bingsolomon Because FIA are arbitrary and live up to their acronym;
Ferrari International Assistance.
This dude would be nicely at home in Japan with the Narita Dogfight crew pushing the limits of Time Attack.
@BoydMort I think my point was a wing can only do so much.
@@Bingsolomon Gotcha, yours was a rhetorical question. =]
@@JimBrodie I see your perspective.
Can't wait to see it next year, with full aero, good tires, good suspension, and all the rest! This guy should get himself crowd funded somehow.
Kids like these are the future. Again the passion, hardwork, dedication... What a cool project.
He seems humble and sincere. I am willing to bet he will be contacted by a car manufacturer soon 😄 Perhaps maybe even by Manthey racing 🤫
When you really know your shit there is no need to be boastful.
@@the_even_toed_ungulate. Its much deeper than that... Its the ego thing and it dates back to personality development, but you can also work on your ego if you have let the weeds grow too much. So its never late, but it gets progressively harder with time to get rid of it. This guy choose the humble way of accepting the fact that the knowledge is outside his head and now he is roaming around, curiously collecting it with an open mind. Butiful 🥲
This guy deserves a crowd fund and as much support as possible.
I love seeing pioneers like this, beavering away in a shed/garage and creating awesome projects like this.
Chapeau fella, a very bright future is coming your way I'm sure.
Kudos to Misha for driving that so well and respectably.
That was unbelievable to watch. Your enthusiasm about the build was so enduring and how modest and likeable is the owner/builder. The drive footage was an absolute roller coaster of emotions (for me), and I had a smile when you let the guys pass (let the dog see the rabbit 😂). Great video, amazing build.
thb as an ingenering student at the first year I’m so impressed and inspired by this guy, you can feel the dedication and the passion in him, I’m speechless
This guy is so talented! What an amazing car. These have to be the coolest cars, these self build custom track cars.
This is one of the best lap you ever did.
I love the way this italian fella managed to create such a master piece with low budget. Da italiano sono orgoglioso di avere connazionali come te, bravo 👏🏻 avrai un gran future
absolutely agree, this dude was amazing! Bravissimo, sono sicuro che spaccherai! hai tutte le carte in tavola!
also Misha, never saw you being so challenged with the fun that the car was giving to you! kudos to you as well for being able to show what this guy put together!
Insane control! No abs, no ac and no power stering. U are legend bro.
Lapo is low key a genius no kidding and super humble. This built is beyond us.
I'm teary eyed and had a massive smile on my face this whole video. What an episode! What a legend this man. 💯😄
This was one of the most enjoyable videos I have ever seen. The passion this young man put into engineering this masterpiece is on full display. You could tell it was special as soon as Misha did those first few gear changes. This young man will no doubt go on to do great things, and Misha thank you for allowing us all to witness the start.
No AC,no abs, no esp...just pure old school mechanics. Now this is a dream race track car you could wish...
Please make the second video with new updates on this car! The guy who built it is a pure talent and I am sure soon (or already) he will work for a major car brands. OR build his own in the near future.
A+ home engineering. This kid has a good future ahead of him. I hope he gets a job somewhere he can build cars.
Excellent driving by Misha. Was fun to see the young man's car get pushed to limits.
hes white, sadly because of this no school is going to accept him.... they need to fit their diversity hire quotas
Hope he works for himself, working under others will in most cases only hold you back.
He works at Ferrari now. He’s doing well
As a final year mech engineering student myself, it's super inspiring to see what he has produced in cad come to life! I did a whole unit on improving a model in cad to which I explored the Venturi effects that are clearly being shown here! I'd love to know what angle he has used for the rear defuser. Adding some chambers the the rear might help with the dirty air out of the back also. Wish I had the cash for a project like this! Well done man! Brilliant stuff!
The diffuser has a max angle of 8.7 degrees, the flow separators are still in production hahaha
@@lapocorenich grandissimo! Un progetto che mi ispira molto, motivante 💪🏻 non vediamo l’ora di vederla completa e vedere i risultati! Continua così 💪🏻
I do maritime engineering, could we do something like this or do you need courses only done in mechanical?
I'm also finishing up my Mechanical Engineering degree. I'm taking a computational Fluid Dynamics course right now with OpenFoam. Planning on doing a diffuser, lip, or spoiler geometry for my final project, would be really cool to see if I can simulate some of his numbers or improve on them with my versions.
i loved everything about this video, specially seeing lapo talk about the car and how humble he was about the insane work he has done, hes gonna seriously go places
Hearing what the lad said about the Kevlar reminds me that the Ford RS200 in it's Group B rally spec had Kevlar body panels because the gravel abraded the wheel arches away from the inside with lesser materials. I was told they'd get one rally from a set of Kevlar panels. I got to a drive a 450HP RS200 around the site roads at Dunton. I initially thought OK but not mind blowing, but then the big turbo kicked in, and the acceleration was so violent I was left wondering how anyone could think fast enough to control the car through a Welsh rally stage with trees both sides of the track waiting to kill you if you got it wrong. That remains one of the stand out memories of my life.
This kid needs to be hired by the Gordon Murray Automotive Group. His talents will certainly be put to good use and increased beyond all dreams. Light weight, good aero package & everything else.
While that would be great, I’d rather see him in real racing rather than in the garage queens market
Keeping up with that Porsche says it all. Very impressive car build, to have so much DF without a wing. And man the car sounds amazing too.
I have seen many of your videos, but this is the BEST! Great to see how amazed you are by this car
This is starting and might already be my favorite channel. Hats off to driving and engineering skills to you both! Keep it up 👍
How many horse power the engine has?
@@rookie8960 269. sorry! We forgot to mention it in this intro we shot the second time after my drive!
@@mgcharoudin Thanks a lot, yeah no worries, if you can put it in the description 👍👍
@@rookie8960 nah, I'll just pin your comment, no one is reading the description🤣
Precisely. Always. Without fail. Etc. :)
@@mgcharoudin I actually read the description almost at every video I watch :-)
This is an brilliant f1 like mind to build a car at this level. It even has porpoising!
🤣
LMFAO
Loved this video. Loved the details about the car and the modifications. The owner seemed a really nice, humble guy. Clearly very passionate and intelligent.
Looking forward to seeing it return with all the updates.
I’m a union HVAC mechanic in NYC, now comparing cars to air conditioning doesn’t make much sense, but I can tell you that proper engineering makes all the difference in anything. It’s amazing how the little things are overlooked, or in most cases completely ignored, mostly due to $$$. When the proper thought and effort goes into a project with no financial restraints it’s amazing what can be accomplished.
Incredible! This is what I call a true project car. Concept and manufactering in low budget but great effects. One of my favorite videos, pls share with us the progress.
Yes low budget, but still someone had to pay for the (sports)car, aswell for all the mods, incl. Supercharger. that’s not available for the average student.

@@gc44884488 both are under 10k combined. Its opel not a lotus...
@@miloscvetkovic4828 well here in holland they start at 20k. 26k+ for a supercharged one. I couldn’t afford owning one of those as a student 🤗. I was 25k in debt for student loans, and dreaming of sportscars.
Great driving ☺️👍
He was flying around that track. I would love to see the POV from one of the cars he passed at full speed. What a marvelous piece of machinery that young man has built. He's going to go on and do great things.
If someone finds it would be awesome!
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS - RESPECT TO YOU MISHA FOR DRIVING SKILLS AND TO THE OWNER OF THE CAR
I love this car community, so much learnt from this video.
Lapo is super talented and humble guy.
Good luck to him 👍
VX220’s are weapons to begin with, he’s evolved it into what the engineers intended before GM’s bean counters got involved. Looks like a blast.
So interesting to see car's like this. Lightweight car, much tuned by the owner and it works perfect. Congratulations to this car :)
The man is also down to earth and smart too and also skilled and the knowledge from this example of the car. Loved Misha’s face reaction when he scrapes the aerodynamic diffuser work 😂
This guy is amazing, how rumble he is! I can feel his joy, so proud of him!!!! Hopefully he gets his dream job, congrats
That dude is freakin awesome! I bet he'd make a killin' if he opened a custom aero/body shop near the Ring
Can't believe that nobody's mentioning that gorgeous Nissan Z. The focus of the video is a work of extreme engineering, but that Z is a work of art.
I did notice it too, but I’m hoping for some dedicated video about that ;)
A big BRAVO to this guy!! Absolutely a proof of work. Misha, you manage this car 100%! Let's see that completed.
Wow - what a great project! Looking forward to seeing this beauty again when finished. Best of luck with your career!
I had two VX220 turbo's and they are massively underrated. The standard aero does suffer from lift at the back at high speed, the different engine cover will have helped, but the rear wing will be a massive help on the track. Oh and worth noting as you mentioned it a couple of times, these cars do not have power steering from the factory, but its not needed. There is a lot you can do to the all alloy (Lotus designed) 2.2 to improve pick up and reduce weight. A balancer shaft delete is a good start and you can get a kit that shortens the auxiliary drive belt and ditches a lot of heavy pulleys. Stiffer engine mounts are a big improvement too. I'm sure this guy will have done all this but obviously you've concentrated on his unique work. Great to see someone with so much enthusiasm and talent.
It is actually nice to see cars that people have put their own time and effort into with a small budget and just goes to show that with the correct modifications, a relatively cheap build can be a very effective track car!
This is one of my favourite videos, so much genuine passion and seeing misha so happy, what a great video
the joy and smiles, watching you both do what you love is beautiful to see.
Absolutely awesome! This thing is what I'm all about, the owners a man after my own heart!
Please make sure to get him back once its completed, would love to see it
Kudos to you Misha. To have driven so many machines over so many laps in the past and to still have the respect to apologize for under-body contact, shows you truly are one of the few Gentlemen car guys on the net. Good luck to the future career of this young engineer :)
What an insanely talented young lad! More power to you kid, you'll go far at this rate. 🤘
This is probably one of the most gripping viewing experiences you have given us, epic drive and a great car, I hope you get to drive it again once the bottoming out has been sorted ❤❤❤💯🔥😎👊🏻
Hats off to the builder of the car, you are a great driver Misha to be able to hop into a car that has been heavily modified and no ABS or traction control, and put down a great lap keeping up with much more expensive BMW and Porsche, that was super exciting !
for real i mean he knows the track but i would be afraid to go that aggressive in a car that i don't know
Drivers in the BMW and the Cayman: "What kind of a Speedster is THAT ?? He keeps on chasing us ! "
Amazing Track Tool, and not even fully finished.
That speedster was much faster in the corners than those.
Beautiful build man! Fantastic job done on the speedster, also that red 240z looks beautiful!
That was awesome. The whole run was just tire screech, chassis shake, and "Oh god sorry!" XD Wonderful, thanks for sharing!
Super impressed with the rear subframe brace / wing mount. Using one part for multiple purposes is great engineering. Incredible work all around. Really demonstrates the power of knowledge!
one thing i would highly recommend for him to do is to bolt a wooden (or rather resin) plank to the bottom of the car where it rubs to keep the damage contained, to keep it measurable and to prevent rubbing on the expensive bits. Ofcourse dont use bolts that stick out to mount it to prevent hurting someone when one of those sheers off and beware of using materials that might catch on fire from the heat of the continuous rubbing.
Kevlar is hardy my friend. It is both durable and as he said abrasive resistant. Not saying a longer event won't eat into it, but for a spin around that track it's awesome! Plus, it's still experimental. He put an airfoil as a front splitter making it a very low wing. Background, 3-4 ish mm kevlar can withstand 100kg of force with ease The difference with kevlar and carbon is fragility. Kevlar you can abrade against a sharp edge and it won't be effected, it's abit slippery. Carbon may splinter under similar situations. Also sidenote kevlar is relatively unaffected by black powder burns. I do model rocketry with both materials.
A few bump-blocks would probably suffice - easier/cheaper to replace and have the benefit of never stalling the airflow under the car completely. If he puts them in line with the tyres, theoretically they shouldn't disturb the airflow too much...
I believe f1 cars use this also, I’m not 100% sure it’s wood especially these new gen ground effect cars need a wooden blank otherwise the floor would get ripped to shreds
I've watched many videos of various cars doing the ring, but this one is an absolute gem!!! Awesome engineering, awesome lap, awesome seeing the state of Misha at the end 😅and how he praised the car!
We are standing on the shoulders of giants...........race car designers that built all the really fast chassis, gave everyone the proof that certain ideas work really well.
First time comment, long time lurking. For some reason I felt emotional a bit watching this video. There is something really beautiful in all of this! One of the best video I ever watched on yt. Great work from student and from driver. Thank you very much!
Definitely agree! 👍🏼
You can just tell on Misha’s face and reactions how genuine he is and even the guy with his car… “yeah that front aero I can stand on it if you like”. 🤣👍🏼
👏
That vehicle is incredibly impressive! Absolutely love the four camera views as well. It's as fun to watch the footwork as the drive.
This is probably the bast car i've seen on this channel.
It was so enjoyable to watch this/hear it.
Nice vid. Its clear to me that you have the most fun in this type of car. Basic and challenging. Fun to watch !!!
Love seeing your content and your honest enthusiastic and constructive encouragement towards this young talented and upcoming pro engineer in the making. Its all about building people up and you do this in buckets and spades sir.
What a great video! You're excitement was palpable! And that guy is so humble for what he can do. I hope he has great success in the future.
This lady’s and gentlemen is what competence looks like. Something that is increasingly harder to find amongst today’s car enthusiasts.
Impressive building 😮
Great driving Misha 👌💪
Congratz from Portugal 🇵🇹
Great car and drive. I like the way this car makes you absurdly involved in the drive, no padle shifters, no abs. Misha needed to really work hard in this car - loads of left foot breaking, heel-toeing.
Mr. Koenigsegg, beware: you just got a strong competitor in a matter of a few years! Really impressive job on the car!
Wow, the ease the owner gets in and out of that speedster is impressive! And yeah...the car is pretty awsome too!
What a cool engineering!!!! WOOOOW!!!!!
I wish him success in this kind of activity!!
Very good job!
Mighty impressive how well you and the car kept up with the cayman and m2. Well done to the lad that built that car. It looks very driver focused and fun to drive.
Mishas reaction says it all, damn impressive. hopefully wen the car is fully finished we will c the car again. the future looks bright for this young man. wow.
Such a humble and nice guy
This was definitely the coolest car on track that day extremely impressive. hats off to him for doing it with a passion and he really knows his stuff!
Thank you Misha for featuring this young builder! And what a classic track car it is, no power steering, no abs. Kept me glued to computer monitor for the whole lap.
I’m not engeneer but this is first video that i am not skipping. Great work and it is very rare to find that kind of person that can do that interesting job on preety rare car! Very good to watch and looking forward to see more content like this!
I cant believe how amazing the car is! hats off to the student engineer who built it. genuinely i think if it didn't bottom out i believe it could keep up with the Porsches, you can just tell it wants to. im showing this vid to my mentor tomorrow at work its nuts.
