Great video my brother. Glad to say vehicle has been upgraded with oil cooler to prevent this happening again. Also found that the Cat was blocked due to previous turbo broken and parts left inside. Due to high exhaust temps vehicle cut of fuel. The main thing is that the 🐐 of the Nurburgring new what to do in this situation and managed to safely get us to safety. Will be back my brother we go again with more upgrades
Where are you from man? UK?
@@jgvbadv yes mate
Excited to go out again!!!
Sweet, looking forward to the next lap with it working properly
True that was quick thinking and a 200 I.Q. pull off
That wasn't an Escort, it was a Focus.
You got Focused off the track.

Misha is a great test of a car's reliability. If it survives him, it'll survive anything.
Not sure it's a great thing... for me🤣
Must feel like being a testpilot/ guinea pig in the early days of aviation when testing the sometimes heavily modified cars from "random" people.
I don't agree with that really - it's just driving with a foot down on the throttle. He isn't aggressive with the clutch or shift speeds at all.
Misha Yeager 😅
His lap in mine produced 134° C oil temp, my (first) lap right after, going as fast as I safely can (also overtaking much more than getting overtaken), produced 116° C. Also I had temperature markers on the brakes, and his lap was the first time those ever hit their minimum temperature :) So yeah, can confirm :)
"we're gonna try going slow 50-60km/h"
immediately pushes 90 😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
@@toxic8637 why would he say mph in Europe everyone uses kmh
@@toxic8637 He said 50-60km/h and not 50-60 mph
@@toxic8637 That's europe. They used km/h. Nobody here uses mph.
This gentleman had such a great attitude about his car going into limp mode. Still smiling ear to ear even while cruising back at 80khm 🙂
Doesn't excuse taking cars that aren't even suitable for the road, to the track.
That's when he realised it wasn't fucked
@J that seems a bit harsh. I think everyone thought the car was more than track capable. Hard to predict this event, especially with the way Misha pushed it.
He handled it really nicely. He's driven over from England and could have been a bit embarrassed and disappointed, but if he was, he didn't let it show.
Was no fault of his own though.
Top bloke, sure he'll get it sorted and be back. Car makes a Ace sound - and great to see Miša sending a diesel for a change of scene.
@@1993j its heavily modified to suit the track. Stop the hate.
I like the owner's reactions. Awkward, nervous confusion, seeming embarrassment and anxiety, started checking his car ECU through his phone (nice setup there) and then the relief and laughter when he realizes it was fuel cutoff due to high G force driving. Just laughs and says "Misha" 😂great reaction. Sometimes, you just gotta laugh! Not sure many of us would have remained so placid throughout the ordeal. Kudos to the owner 👍
I felt the same relief when he said it was a fuel cutoff. The man was so nice and respectable so I was hoping his car was all right
Im curious on what he would do to solve that issue. It's a good safety measure but maybe it could be adjusted with a switch or driving mode
@@gears1707 well it wasnt actually the issue, he has a pinned comment saying what actually happened. But if it was the issue then you would just have to disable it or potentially get a different cut off switch or reprogram it, dont know if its like a mechanical cut off at x or its like software that sees specific G force and could be reprogrammed to do it at higher G
@@gears1707 I know many fords will cut fuel if the car thinks it could have been in an accident
@@dutifulbarrel9084 Is it because it's diesel to prevent runaway or do they do it in all cars?
This man seems to be such a nice guy! Props to him for keeping cool vibes and wanting to bring son to Nurburgring.
I wish I had son and could go drive around NR...

This was pretty cool watching and hearing the other racers go ripping by. Glad the car was okay!
A true miata owner ;-) lol jk
Very well handeld Misha, instant safe park location, not trying to troubleshoot while being an unguided missle but instead stopping and than troubleshoot.
Not only does Misha scare passengers, he scares cars too!
Misha: Yeah I’ll roll at 50-60kmh
- actually drives 100 like a boss 😎
he meant mph :D
@@dedasdudenah
@@dedasdude no he didnt, why would he. Hes in germany they dont use mph
@@bobvis4032 Because the owner of the car is British?
@@BiIboSwaggins they spoke in german.
I think I can explain what exactly happened with the car's brain. I think the car is determining where the "down" is by computing the angle of currently experienced acceleration in relation to the body. So when you sent it close to, say, 2g to the side, that angle was around arctan(2)~=64 degrees and so the car thought it's literally rolling over at that angle. Ford engineers never predicted someone will send it that hard haha. Amazing stuff.
Great video as always!
Think owner should revise the tune on his ECU, if car was smokey at high revs means that it has too much injection time and/or fuel pressure, causing the EGT to raise quickly over 900 degrees. Car got in limp mode in the uphill high speed section after a while at over 3000rpm. Tune has to be properly refined to keep temperatures under control. Had similar issue on my car, solved it with a little more rail pressure, less injector opening time and different injection timing. 💪🏻
Diesel can be fast and funny if properly tuned!
In his comment above he mentioned that his cat was blocked with parts from a previous engine failure. He installed a better oil cooler to support the ECU tune.
My diesel does some white smoke (nothing huge but enough to make people stay a bit further back) with “high” revs like 2,5k
@@iwonder1216 saw after he wrote the issue hahaha
@@Alex-hv3ir Unfortunately, I think white smoke from diesel engine means a crack in cylinder head unless you're hearing engine obviously missing power from one cylinder (which would cause diesel to go through the cylinder without ignition, probably because of a broken valve). If you're losing any coolant, it's the cause of white smoke because coolant is leaking through the cylinder head.
why did the oil light come on when he pulled over?
Misfortune that turned this into a very educational video. Something like this we all should be prepared for. Fortunate those marshal cars where so close at hand, could have been a longer scarier wait.
Mario here took it like a champ, and I have do deal out some extra points for the raised white lettering on the tires.
🤣🤣 Thanks, my brother. I love the car as it started as my daily car to and from work 🤣. We learnt alot after Misha full send and have upgraded all of them. We will go again sometime in June
8:47 Man versteht alles, es hat sich gelohnt ;)
the car thinking it will role and cutting the fuel supply is hilarious and good to know they do :D
Absolutely love these vids.. this summer I'm taking my sti out on my local track.. never done it before but watching your video makes me wanna get out there.
As a focus owner on my second engine I always dread the "Service Engine Now" warning, usually one of a million things always expensive... good old ford :D
Same in my mini, dreaded BONG and look at the screen to see what now
Peugeot engine too ?
I had a Ford, but not long enough for anything major to go. Still, had to replace quite a few things on it at low km
Meanwhile at Toyota, you may need to replace such parts 15 years later
If it's not a coyote powered Ford, then it will blow up immediately.
@@MiGujack3The 2.0 turbo in the STs can be quite reliable as well
You weren't escorted you were focusted but yeah it's still a Ford. 😁👍
Driving a Ford escort would've worked too lol.
Deeehehehehehehehehe
“Lots of smoke coming from the back, is that normal?”
“Yes it’s a choo choo train.”
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This diesel sounds better than a lot of 4cyl petrol engines :) Interesting lap / situation.
It's got a sound symposer linked to a boost line like all of ST family :)
Im sorry but I think it sounds terrible, it just sounds so extremely fake... Thats obviously because it is fake, but I cant stand the synthetic noise, same with the Audi S6 Diesel, which sounds just totally strange on the outside. I drive a BMW Diesel that doesnt have any synthetic noise and it still gives a nice bassy rumble, way better than these fake sounds.
@@PaulL42654 Yeah it’s quite worrying that the owner of the car hasn’t noticed that the sound isn’t the exhaust, it’s the symposer🤣
@@PaulL42654 I think most people have it shut off when it's tuned, like I did with mine. They're surprisingly throaty and sound decent for a 4 banger. Although I've never seen a diesel version here in Canada. This one sounds like the Subaru boxer engine imo.
@@RthereNEusernames Yeah I know it can cause boost leaks! Love the sound of my symposer in the fiesta though
I like how the security dude explains that "it's dangerous, stay on the right"
i like how he does his job to make sure no one gets hurt
@@martin1649 Ummm, because its his job?
He didn't recoginize Misha so he goes with the basic instructions. And the reason for those instructions is that somebody previously failed to stay on the right while driving a slow car and caused additional incident.
@Just a Minute I think he was being sarcastic because of the original comment
@@justaminute4657 *whoosh*
My dad's trick to solve limp mode was to switch it off and back on doing 70 on the carriageway 😂
I’ve done that with a Passat while going 170kph on the autobahn😂
@@Bartem_ haha it was a 2007 Passat, 250k miles
@@Scalbow95 2.0 TDI with the vnt turbo actuator sticking? That was the problem for me.
@@Bartem_ 1.9tdi but exactly the same fault
had also a problem going to the nurburgring. on kickdown the engine stalled.
after 2 laps on the nurburg ring. the problems where gone.
found out later the fuel filter was clogged😅
Track Marshall : "It's dangerous, stay on the right"
Misha: "I'll be going 20% try to keep up"
Bringing back some memories of taking my 1985 Jetta Diesel to its limits about 25 years ago. 54 horsepower!
Wow thats cool, if not a prob for you how old are you?
Life is betta in a Jetta!
Glad nobody was hurt. Stay safe boys! Looking forward to the changes and redemption run!
With that headline I thought you actually sent it too hard, so I was a bit surprised when it was a Focus ST diesel. :D That being said, I love cars that are a bit different, we don't see many of these. Thanks for the video, and awesome car Mario. Glad you fixed it.
Thanks bud, be back soon
Good pedal work- thanks for showing the footwork mate!
Refreshing to see this kind of action on a track, and not in some school zone with a finger up.
At least it was a nice evening for a drive in the woods...😄
The car owner seemed to take it in stride, because I mean how many other guys on his street can say, "Misha broke my car on the Nurburgring"🤪
Ford focus MK3 extorior I like very much💜.
Also, great drivers really know how to keep their cool in times of crisis, that was really cool
Nice to see another tuned Diesel. My car now has a big brake kit so now I actually dare to go to the nurnburgring and drive on it. My stock brakes couldn’t even handle 5min of sporty driving trough the woods where I live.
Will be there laat weekend of April with my entire car squad.
Remember owning an st diesel myself. Lovely things to drive. Mine was also a stage 2 but with a crap tune
Dude was a nervous wreck the whole time especially with power loss... then gets all relieved when it wasn't a big deal
Had a 2015 FoST for 5 years, great car. Loved it. Cool seeing it on the track.
My diesel wagon also once turn off on a long uphill with long left turn. Also displayed "fuel cut-off" error. Good thing it is "common rail" and it primed itself with no issues, like it might be on mechanical ones... Turn out fuel intake was "repaired" by previous owner, just changed it and no issues since then.
Ah the typical fast driver call. We will drive back at 50-60kph. Drives at average of 100kph for rest of lap. lol Safely of course. :)
As an American today I learned there was a diesel version of the Focus ST overseas. Thats pretty damn cool, had no idea!
The temporaly cut of in the corner also happens when (on a diesel) you press brakes and accelerator simultaniusly
As soon as you said there was a lot of smoke I was thinking those EGT's are going to be climbing fast.
Throwing a load of fuel into a diesel is an easy way to make big numbers on a dyno but its also a very fast way to get very high EGT's.
Water meth or nitrous are two ways to cure it. Someone who can actually map a car without just doing a moon tune is the better way.
I am very surprised nobody checked it wasn't dropping oil before they went back out on the track. Especially as it was smoking. This is why I am very reluctant to take my motorbike on the ring.
'' i want to drive 50/60 '' proceeds to drive 100 kph +
Best part of the video was the owners attitude!what a cool guy.
Love the marshals, they were really focused on a fun but safe experience today
Misha you absolutely do not need those low level misleading titles at all. Your channel is so absolutely amazing all by its top level content (queue the recent Civic Type-R battle over a whole lap which must be some of THE MOST AMAZING car content ever to be presented). Please just stay yourself and don’t get sucked into grandiose video titles. people watch you because they know every video is a treat.
100% agree
A Focus ST and Limp Mode. As a Focus St owner I can say this is a match made in heaven. I love these things but boy can they be temperamental sometimes. lol
The fact that he said the car sounded nice tellls a lot about Mischa’s humbleness
Why is that humble? I'm just curious, no hate.
@@12123188 I think Lukas is trying to say the sound of that particular vehicle didn't cause his loins to stir.
You can call him many things, I don't think humble is one of them
Misha is so professional about these things. I am a nervous passenger but I'd feel safe with him.
Nice ride Mario, gotta feel nice having your baby pushed to her max aye :)
Thing with more sensors is, more things to break or fail. They’re amazing for daily driving terrible for on track
Holy cow that's actually a very quick diesel!
Dude has proper levels of stress letting someone else drive his car.
"Yeah, we're just going to do 50-60"
Proceeds to double that and overtakes one :P
leave it to Misha to find the cars rollover fuel cut on all four wheels :D
you are a amazing driver misha you never disappoint !
Was driving in a straight line, couldn’t be that
@@ainsmas361 Yeah possibly heat / fouled sensor due to the smoke. All resolved now apparently!
1st time for everything...
This is probably the 1st time you scared the car not your passenger. Lol 😅😂
Great video as always
Thank you for all your hard work 👍❤👍
A onboard video, with speedo and foot cam.. 🙏🏼 Thx
Love the breakdown content as well. Something we see not that often on this channel.. 👍🏼
Haha the relieved laugh when you realise it will be a cheaper repair than expected
Ich glaub seine Lambdasonde ist im Eimer, dass gleiche hatten wir auch mit unserem Diesel auf der Autobahn, plötzlich totaler Leistungsabfall und nach einem neustart ging es wieder, weil der Wagen nicht genügend Diesel zum Motor befördert kriegt
Wow, those marshalls are quick to react. Very good
I'd like to see a day in the life of the rescue driver, his background etc.
I wonder if the car has a dry sump because driving fast like this on a track can starve the engine from oil if you turn too fast.
Great question, and I am looking into this however on my data log, my oil pressure has never dropped to even flag up a warning. Even now after installing a oil cooler I never reach the half line of the parameters set. But dry sup would add to the safety measures
Nice video 👍. I have one but is the gas focus st 2018, I would like to see you drive one.
I would expect limp mode before engine cut off, usually engine will shut off due to fuel system related issues not exhaust temperature, I would expect the high EGT was as a direct result of the fuel system issue as in low rail pressure and extended injection duration leading to high EGT. Also if fuel injection limiters are being respected in the software, the ECU will reduce the torque output of the engine to protect the engine from overheating long before any fuel cut off would come into play....or at least that should be the case
I know Misha has to be one of the busiest drivers at that track. I can only assume that there are plenty of experienced drivers that will drive you around the track in a modded car for the right price. An experience one day I’d like to have.
*Any car as soon as Misha starts driving* : Why do I hear boss music?
Because you drank the brown acid.
Crazy how good his german is
By the way (on a slightly different subject) , even people can get done driving recklessly fast on unrestricted sections of autobahn. The TÜV are the dvsa but stricter
Very cool as always 👌
As a ford fiesta owner.
When I saw 130.000km on a stage 2 fiesta i was surprised it survived this long :D
The owner must’ve mixed up lbft and nm, pumaspeed states 520nm for their stage 2, which is roughly what he said in lbft, 550lbft is 745nm which would be quite silly for a 2l fwd focus😅
Agreed its NM was more excited Misha driving the car as it was my first Nurburgring experience.
Have to say, if you asked me what Middle a aged guy who owns an ST would be wearing, this adidas t-shirt would be up there😂
More than likely the oil got too hot, especially if its tuned like he said. Although it seems pretty slow
it was the inertia switch he said , probably the neg g upset it
@@colinscutt5104 he commented, turns out he installed an oil cooler after this to prevent it from happening again. And he's going to bring it back for misha to have another go, will be good 👍
@@Liam....... ah I see 👍
That was most probably a p0087 due to too much rail pressure requested. That is why the engine shut off when you clutch in. Just stg2 things from UK diesel tuners 🤣
Passenger knew exactly what was up. Like it's happened before.
aw memories. Pumaspeed did my very first car mods back in the day on my 2nd ever car the classic 1.7 puma.
He didn't get escorted off the track, he just got focused.
at the exact same place my car did the same. TWICE! No throttle response. First time i went out at Steilstück-Corner and engine off. Won't came back on. The end was on top of the towtruck. At Ringboulevard, the car sartet just normal. One year later it came back right before Steilstück. After this, the car was running normal the rest of the lap. Car: Leon 1m Cupra R
I resent modern technology in some ways. Too clever for it's own good. "The traction control is living it's own life" sums it up perfectly. Now fuel cut off will stop play like a scared mother.
Nice coblor asphalt watch man!
Such a Ford thing :D Brings back memories from owning Focus RS MK3, my tow truck queen :D
RS MK3 is such a nice car. It has a soul.
That footwork tho!!!
One of the best passengers I’ve seen so far 😂👌
Fuel cut off. Or left foot braking in a diesel which will indeed chuck up a code after it's been done a few times.
I could be heat build in fuel going and retain to tank caused fuel vapor, had similar issue in GTR
"Thinkin' it's goin to a roll.. Sick" What a chad
The wheel hop must be insane from a dig
Yup, Ford's Focus's just suck. Had an MK3 ST before, it overheated so easily I wanted to smash that freaking thing into the guardrails every time I tracked it.
And it also averaged 4.5 liters / 100 km on track
I'm sure that the safety systems and procedures at the Ring are second to none. If I should ever get the chance to drive it, I"ll have no concerns about help being available if I need it.
You don’t get chances, you make them.
I’m not sure about German law with dpf deleting but in the UK I believe it’s illegal with up to a £1000 fine for cars & may also invalidate insurance. Not that I’d bother to do it but definitely keep it quiet.
Great vibes from this man hahaha. Glad it was nothing major
How many stages can you install in an engine?
13:33 Can agree, i enjoyed watching every second after the incident.
Question: when doing the rev matching/ doing heel and toe technique, how much throttle input should you apply?
And does it slow down if you do the rev match, without the use of brakes?
You can practice this without heel and toe, gear changes only, just won't allow you to brake simultaneously. The perfect amount of throttle is that which places the revs exactly where they will be in the next gear down when the gear change is completed. The point of it is the synchros will be spinning at the same speed as you engage the gear and there will be no clashing. You'll know you've done it right if the gear goes in like butter and the revs don't change when you clutch out. It will release dopamine in your brain so practice will be enough, your subconscious does the rest. It's typically a small tap for a split second and depends on the engine's response, and the gearing in the car. Start with small taps rather than mashing it.
As a marshall _(without yellow flag active at that spot)_ I would have climbed, moved and stayed all the time behind the barrier!
Dope video.
Puma speed is in my town Wakefield woowww Misha gets to ride once just if drive alsorts lol
This happened to me on the road after a remap in this car.
