Capable but too safe. More aggressive alignment would make it better. Nice to see that e-diff has enough bite to make it oversteer, that's not something you see very often :)
Perhaps an alignment but otherwise stock given the oversteering nature of the car. I don’t think they come from the factory set up like that but who knows
Looks like the answer is yes lol It will always be the standard for FWD hot-hatches against all else should be measured. Wonderful balance of fun and performance, maybe a touch sterile these days, but still up there
And like always, thanks for the edge-of-the-seat content, and thank you for making sure that the roads are empty beforehand. confident and skilled driving is a rare sight on youtube
@youtuber-cc8sx -only from first to second in my experience. Switching the shifter bushings from rubber to aluminium can help with this. -on long highway drives i waer noise-cancelling headphones. - i am only 1,74 so the position is good enough. Seating lower looks also very dumb with the very high interior. -for the infotainment chekc out "teyes cc3 2k" I ordered it half a year ago but did not have time to install it. But from what i have seen and heard it is an amazing system. No more annoying connection issues with android auto
Super!!! 👋 Parádní jízda a je fajn, že je vidět i tachometr. A na mokrou úzkou silnici jsou ty rychlosti fakt hodně dobré. Jenom ten interiér golfu teda nicmoc, ale o ten tady naštěstí vůbec nejde 😀
How do you get this to lift off oversteer? My latest gen polo gti wont let me even with esc sport and dsc off. Is it just differences in stability control modes or the lsd or combo of both?
Does it let you turn ESC all the way off on the 8? I have a 7.5 and the best I can get is "ESC Sport" but that doesn't let me oversteer, as soon as I get the tail out with load transfer it applies brakes individually to immediately stop the slide. Here you managed to make it go sideways nicely
The GTI has always been a good balance of fun and practicality. Other than the Civic Type R it's probably one of the best FWD platforms out there. However, the latest generation's user experience is horrible It's like VW forgot all about the fact that many people daily drive their GTI and want the radio, AC, and heated seat controls to be easy to use when they are just going to work.
yeah the all capacitive controls are horrific, I genuinely am interested in buying a GTI but I'm holding out for them to go back on that, I cannot bear with that
Golf gti is a great daily car but awful, boring, poor handling by hot hatch standards. Only people swearing by golfs are those who really don't drive or haven't tried a good hot hatch. Seen ep3 type r convert plenty of vag fanboys and doing track convince plenty of golf owners the car is absolutely not suitable for track
Seems a bit loose on the front are they just too heavy now or just too much power the front wheels can’t handle the corner and the power at the same time
Right? It's kinda fast but has very boring handling. You really need to provoke it to get some lift-off oversteer. My 2010s shitbox is more fun at half the speed.
@@reinermiteibidde1009 You may have somehow convinced yourself your shitbox is good but I'm not buying your stupid story. If you couldn't sell the GTI you wouldn't trade a shitbox for it? I don't know who you're lying to, but I'm not buying that. Nice try though

Sometimes I think I'm killing it and then I see what you do and then all of my confidence flies away 😂
Outstanding driving as always. Was this a totally stock GTI?
I just want to ask the same question
Me 3

Yes it is
@@XX-nw1xg yes stock is like that only with DCC full stiff, but in the wet yes
impressive... both, car and driver
Oh man, wish you set up a few cameras around those corners
Great driving. We enjoy ours, and the Mk8 is a little rocketship once tuned.
Beautiful video !
Looks fast :)
Mine is EQT Stage 2.. It's more than hot enough for my driving needs. Love that car. Most fun car I've ever owned.
I really need a video to show how to drive the new Fiesta ST!!!
Insane driving
I'd love to see the new Focus ST on these roads.
Awesome driving!
Very good driving. I drive the same one but DSG. I think manuel is much more fun. 🏁
Finally, someone who can actually drive 👍
Looks like the answer is yes lol

They have so much potential for modding. Just a stage 1 tune gives it nearly 100 more hp.
Love it! What tires were you running?
goodyear eagle f1 supersport
amazing car, my dream if it came to Brazil it would be very cool
What I like about this car is that it reminds me of the EG6, you need a certain kinda skillset to drive an ff on the limit like you are, congrats!!
Crazy but I love it! Subscribed 👍can you try a 320i M Sport ?
What tyres were on the Golf? Great video!
Someone get this guy in a new Civic Type R!
New video!
I really wanna see you driving a NA or nb MX-5 .
Mein lieber Mann.. Hut ab 😅
How about the swift sport? Cheap and lightweight fun. 950KG Go-Kart

BIG BIG favor, if possible... I would love to see a Megane R.S. last generation from you guys... you know.... the 300!
Superb
Shame they wont sell you a manual GTi in some markets...
DSG is a fantastic transmission. But a hot hatch with a 6 speed is so much more fun 😂
@@doloresberry3144 the standard gti is slow enough for my liking where a manual adds to the experience

are you running higher pressures in the rear to make it more oversteery?

Well, where are the passenger pedals?

Yes you can either do esc sport or off completely
stage four, rocket about whells 🚀🚀🚀
How are you not hydroplaning?
Me when driving to work at 07:58 o'clock
How you have suspension setting open while driving?
Answer: Yes, if you are him.
170 po mokrej okreske? Na to treba mať riadne gule (a schopnosti samozrejme). Klobúk dolu.

bro you are the best driver on YT but please don't get too confident.. you doin 130-140 and a jump😢take care
Go2 camera?
from what i see in this video this car has a huge understeer problem
Man, slow down. There is no respawn

Damn that steering wheel is larger than one in a bus.

A lidi si kupují M4 a podobně, protože výkon Golfu by jim nestačil, haha.
Looks like isn't hot at all comparing to GR Yaris
wow. you have 2 lives?😁

Got LSD in gearbox?
Are you afraid of aquaplaning?

Average driving at best, very erratic car control.
Looks boring compared to i20N 🤔

great driving skills, but this golf... meh
