![@Rideezy IS INSANE! You have to see this BIKER flying through the NÜRBURGRING NORDSCHLEIFE BTG [4K]](/img/n.gif)
Does this count as a clickbait? Pls tell me!
Yes, very 😂 i didn't expect that at all 😂
Hahahaha that was wild
slightly but with your quality of content i dont think many people care.
Lmao why do people look for bad occurrences on the Nurburgring :D
Obviously not clickbait,
But you know how people on the internet can be 😂
Edit: on second thought it kinda is lol :D
Sorry Misha, yes, that is very clickbaity. LOL Whatever, we know there is actually quality content behind the shitty facade.
Phew... I was expecting a money shift.
Imagine if he put 2 gear 😂😂
I saw the pistons escaping from the tailpipes!
@@bastordd pretty sure there is a lockout in the C7s that the trans won't let you go down more than 2 gears (from 5 max down is 3rd) but it would have been... interesting.
Man click baiting us ALL.
Click bait!! He got me
The "no money" missed shift! You could tell the owner was enjoying himself, he was alternating between the "omg we're going to die!" and "this is amazing, how are we managing to remain on the road at these speeds?" look. Great lap and a really nice, well-sorted car!
We need a catchy name for a no money shift 😂
Perhaps a credit shift?
Because it leaves you owing a prayer of thanks to the car Gods that you didn't just over rev a motor 😂😂
And he was running out of words at the end to describe his feelings and thoughts 🙂
Congrats for confidently "having made it", Misha. Subs skyrocketing, total channel views going up like 10 million every what, 2 weeks? 100% deserved. I wish it could go on forever, and already dread the moment you'll decide to "settle down" 😭 But at the same time I (we all I think) appreciate what we have right now.
Awesome car with sensible mods. Big props to the owner! And awesome lap / driving Misha (as always 😃)!
I feel like we're just starting. And I appreciate your ongoing support. It means a lot to me. Hope to see you again soon! Let's get that 1m reeled in!
@@mgcharoudin haven't figured out my brake problem yet (probably not air, could be the master brake cylinder), that's why I'm not coming right now. As for "just getting started", YES!!, that's the spirit 😁, that's what we wanna hear. Thanks for the kind words m8.
WOW I checked the numbers. Socialblade says +41 million views the last 30 days! God damn Misha, well deserved!
BTW: Thank you Misha for all these videos. Incredible you're not taking any RAID shadowlegends etc. sponsorships!
@@mgcharoudin new subscriber here, I can't stop watching your bad ass vids. I have A LOT of catching up to do! Keep it up!
@darthstrukt me too. Algo brought me here and its a brilliant channel 👏
The emotional rollercoaster of the owner's face was priceless! 😄 You could tell he was torn between "Should I start drafting my will?" and "This is the greatest day of my life!" Also, kudos for defying the laws of physics with your driving. About that 'missed shift,' let's just call it a 'calculated risk,' shall we? 😅
I really want to see Misha's reaction to the C8 ZO6. If anyone who is watching wants to let Misha drive one, please do! I'm sure they are a rare sighting just like any Corvette in Europe.
Just search C8 on his channel, there is a video 8 month ago. Can't comment with a link thanks to YT.
@@phillgizmo8934but it was a stingray, z06 is another level
@@Dawid150 Oh thanks for correction, just learned about those different Vette trims.
Will be sad if it's the neutered euro spec Z06 with the GPFs. Sucks 40 HP and all the sound out. We have strayed from God.
Well, you got your wish recently
I love the c7,GM nailed it perfectly.Minor correction;this engine is an LT, not an LS.Other than that,fantastic driving as usual.
@@wackoterp7026🤡☝️
This is the only channel that I never miss a single video, and I can say it worth it 100%, congratulations Misha, you deserve the best!
Btw: Always nice to see those american cars at nurburgring showing that they are capable!
The gear box is like never ending 🤣 almost 260 in 4th damn, that's impressive, Nice lap Misha ;) i was expecting money shift but hopefully it's not phews.
Mine does 290kmh in 4th lol.
Yeah hopefully at least a 4.10 final drive gear swap is in his near future, if this is equipped with the Z51 package, it came with a 3.42 final drive, this definitely needs 4.10's to help (cheapest way to help lol)....it would be so much faster just with shorter gearing.
@@johnnygeorgopoulos4072 yeah it will help definetly for sure !
These are ridiculously capable cars with the proper suspension and brake upgrades. Heck, even stock ain't that bad.
Now THAT is a properly setup Vette. Too many owners here in the states turn these cars into chromed out garbage bags that spend more time parked than being driven. Well done to the owner and great drive Misha. 🤘
Shit you know why, they're the official late 40's to 50's white guy midlife crisis car here in the US :D
My New balances & cut off jean shorts are offended!😇
@@tracewayboshey hey now, I rock NB's (574's though 😅) but I sadly don't drive a C7, just a few old vehicles (97 GMC RCSB K1500, 94 Chevy Astro CS AWD, 89 Cadillac Deville lol)... leave the New Balances out of it! 😤😂
And yes, almost perfectly setup, just needs either 3.90 or 4.10 gears and a decent cam, Fast intake and 103mm throttle body and a remap to raise the limiter to make use of the cam and fine tune fueling and ignition and she'd be perfect (good 100hp+ easy shifted 1k higher in the powerband and shorter gears to make use of everything).
@@johnnygeorgopoulos4072i didn't know that was possible with a c7. im an audi guy but like c7s. you can make 550hp, with just the cam, intake, TB, and tune? that seems quite impressive
Fun fact for you, the C7 actually has a slight rear weight bias, thanks to its transaxle layout and surprisingly light engine. As for the gears, it wouldn't surprise me if 4th was that long to help with the 1/4 mile time, though it seems more likely that it's just as short as they could make it while keeping the drop to 5th manageable. With the C6, you hit top speed in 5th, so it might be the same here, just with an extra overdrive gear in between.
C5/6/7 all have the same transaxle layout also the c5 z06 was the lightest followed by the C6Z 👑 and then the C7.
4th gear is the 1:1
Is that the reason he can throw it in the corners real heavy
The C7 is my favorite Corvette. Love the design, beautiful, aerodinamic, 7 speed Manual transmission. Love it!
I daily drive 2019 C7 Grand Sport. It's absolutely amazing. Every morning is a special event.
Man this car is amazing, even at low RPM it was pushing very hard and you could barely feel the speeds, at some point it felt like you were going at 100km/h but you were above 200.
Wow, that is next level. So fast and composed and seems so chilled while doing it. The gear ratios are moonshot! It makes the car seem almost gutless until you look at the speed at realise the speed is so high for the revs.
Vipers and Vettes have some really tall gearing. I know both of mine will do ~60 mph in 1st gear.
Sold my C7 a few months ago to make room for my G87 because I need back seats. Miss that car so much. An absolutely incredible driving experience and a bargain here in the states. Great sound, great torque, nice shift feel. A proper front-engine rear drive sports car.
I switched mine for a 4Blackwing and the car feels so familiar to the c7 and im just happy I get to keep my tremec manual in a sedan
lol, 2019 Grand Sport to a Taycan 4S for me. I miss mine as well.
@@blackwng Great choice. I love the BW but it was just a bit too big to fit in my spot in the garage.
@@jc1701 How you like the Taycan? I have a tesla MY for the wife and kids and wasnt really looking for another EV but my neighbor has one and it looks very nice.
I rented one once and had an absolute blast. What a great car. So balanced and confidence inspiring. Definitely got my money's worth lol.
Only two times I've been over 150mph were in a C4 and a C7. Both rock solid and just piercing through the air like a bullet. My Mustang would get floaty over 120 and the front end was like a brick wall in comparison.
Man I love the small block sound!! Great driving, never see these cars driven like this (how their supposed to be) here in the US!:(
... do you go to tracks? We had four of them at my local track like a month ago. Vettes are known as the track cheat code because them and porsche constantly win everything.
Reverse money shift if thats a thing🤭 I'd say better to miss into a higher gear than lower .
I watched the video expecting the opposite, a nasty downshift, but correct, better for the car for a mistaken upshift :)
It's amazing how a pushrod V8 can sound so exotic. For such a low revving engine, it sounds like its revving to 7, 8 or 9,000 rpm not 6. TORQUE everywhere, low center of gravity with no cams on top of the engine... just a wonderful motor.
What an amazing experience 😊❤ I was always curious how these cars handle. Thank you for the video 💯
love seeing your content man! it does put a smile on my face. keep it up man I hope to be there in the Nürburgring one day!
Been watching your videos a ton lately, amazing content Misha!
Your ability to drive every style of car is so awesome!
Long gearing is mainly for it to pass emissions. But it’s easily fixable by changing the final drive ratio to something like a 4.10 instead of 3.90, which this comes in.
That tachometer is very cool, I love that it briefly leaves a faint blue line to show where you lifted or shifted gears.
Ofc is cool is made in America baby 🦅 🇺🇸
started watching this king 4-5 weeks ago, life has been better since...
I think one of the most entertaining things about you doing laps in people's cars is that, most of them don't "know" the ring turn by turn so you can see it on their face in blind corners that they're scared. I LOVE IT!!
this videos make my morning each day. THANK YOU MISHA!
Loved to see this ride! Especially after the Lambo video. Uncle Sam does a good job with these Vette’s 👌
Was looking for a c7 video on this channel just recently, nice to see
This thing is crazy sharp, probably my favorite out of any other Vet you've posted. The engine sound is sex to the ears!
passenger was legit terrified.
funny how the corvette is deemed as hard to drive but seems controlled compared to the lambo
I think by the time the C7 was out, they had it pretty much perfected. They had to go mid engine to better it. I think the emotion of the C7 with a manual is perhaps the sweet spot. Also love the removeable top.
I'm a new subscriber. I'm amazed how Misha can hop into a car he's never seen before and crank out unbelievable laps at the ring. A true test for any sports car. Much continued success Misha! 👍🏁
A great video mate love your honesty about the cars with flaws and design compromises. As being relatively new to your channel I’m wondering how many laps have you driven of the ring?
Love it! Weird gear ratios as said! 4th is super long in particular.
Great video! As a Canadian I love seeing you drive American cars especially corvettes as they're great platforms.
Great car and good, mild mods. Nice owner! He must be a legend in his country with such a unique car.
Awesome video. The C7's are absolute weapons with the magnetic suspension if optioned, tires and pads/fluid and can keep up with basically anything in it's class if not pass them.
When misha drives the track looks like a video game ❤
I look forward to the daily video, appreciate the contant effort and quality is amazing for everyday content. Big respect
Pray you keep making content for ever and always 😂
Спасибо, Миша, за Ваши видео. Всегда смотрю с удовольствием. Надеюсь как-нибудь приехать и прокатиться вместе с Вами)Удачи и всех благ!
As an Ex Corvette owner I‘m really happy to see one, please more of them 👍
I mention your name to coworkers, everybody loves watching your skill and knowledge no matter the vehicle. So fun to watch. Like a video game but real life.
Man I love this channel.
3000 rpm at 250 km/h? Sick!
250 in 4th😂
250 km,7g,3000 rpm
@@mgcharoudinI came to the comments to see if someone else was surprised by it too 😂
I owned a C7 G.S. 7 Speed. I have made that mistake many times. Actually, it's a very difficult manual to row, consistently!
Love the corvette content!
Misha i binge watched almost every video and every car but i couldn't find a single one with a Koenigsegg its one of my favourite cars especially the agera r if you can ever do a lap or even go along as passenger that would be an epic video
Thank you Misha for running the C7. Super cool, Over here in the states the Corvette is king, but I know the Vettes are very well respected in Germany as well I lived in Germany for many years and i go back and forth between Porsche and Corvettes, and I love them both and i am always torn between the two. But please more Corvettes are welcome so keep em coming and drive em like ya stole em... Faaaaasssssst!
Great car, great drive, chill owner. Fantastic
I love this car. So beautiful and so good sounding😊
I'm glad the issue of cooling is finally being addressed. Most people just slap on 2 million boosted horsepower and scratch their head when the rear end gears melt and oil sprays all over the track. Keep it cool and you can do more.
Cooling solutions have been known and figured out for like 5 plus years
What an Emotion The Melodic Full Sound of this Fantastic 🔥C7 Vette🔥...this is called Pure V8 sound🇺🇸😍...as always Great MISHA 👏
Such a beautiful and well mannered car! Would love to see you get your hands on a C7 Z06 or ZR1!
Brilliant drive and car. Unfortunately witnessed this crash probably not long after your video.
You could be in a Geo Metro and still be passing people on the left. Impressive driving good sir.
Love the C7. Had one in Z51 trim and 8 speed auto with the hopes the transmission would be a bit as good as the ZF units, but it was a disappointment. It worked great on upshits at WOT, but downshifts were slow and it overall sucked for daily driving. I really wish they would've gone with the 6MT instead of the odd 7 speed. Overall an amazing car that didn't get the best transmission choices.
Sounds sooo good!
Chevy makes interesting choices with gear ratios sometimes. Not really a sports car but I have an express van 5.3 and there’s so little torque in third gear it loses speed while towing up a gentle hill at highway speeds and requires a downshift to second. weird choices for vehicles where power delivery is desired/needed.
That 4-7 rpm drop was brutal! Just like a 3-4 of a 4L60E with 2.73 final ratio.😂
Fantastic car and driving Misha. The car has the same problem like my CTS-V has. The oil temp is getting really high.
It's high, but it also looks dead stable. The needle didn't move from the start of the hill all the way until they hit the yellow.
mishas foot work is incredible
Best Vette ever IMO, the C7.... this one is perfect, great color combination, great supporting mods.... just needs a shorter final drive gearing (at least a 3.90 if not 4.10 compared to the stock, if Z51 package equipped, 3.42 with manual) and definitely a higher lift and duration camshaft....its so easy to gain an easy 100hp and shift the powerband up 1k RPM with a decent cam(and then a remap to lift the rev limiter higher to make use of the cam, could also grab a Fast intake and 103mm throttle body to round it out), hopefully these two are on his list for next upgrades.... awesome Vette otherwise 👌
I was worried for a sec(thought u shifted it to REVERSE 💀😂)
For me the "base" C7 is the most beautiful of all the corvettes to date, the red/black color combo makes it perfect. Switching to a rear-mid-engine layout with the C8 might have been a good decision regarding performance, but at the cost of giving up perfect proportions.
American Muscle 🇺🇸🦅💪🏼
nice vid, need a C8 Z06 with Z07 pack next please 🙏
Curious, did you change the stabilization settings on the main GoPro? Seems like it was more wobbly than usual... Still amazing content though! :)
handles super how it looks like it goes realy safe and superfast in corners like on rails
Finally I’ve been waiting for you to drive a C7 🎉🎉🎉
The look on his face when you said the lap could have been more spicy - oh no no no 😨 - was hilarious 😂
Finally a C7 Video! Misha see if you can find a C7 Z06 to try out. Tighter ratios in the gearbox and more power, so you avoid that drop in torque between 3-4 shifts. This was a huge factor in why I didn’t opt for the C7 grand sport, despite its NA engine and lighter weight being better suited to track duty. Cheers carmrade
Agreed! I’d love to see Misha try a m7 c7 z06.
Very nice and fast stable car ... like it - it has a lot of emotions and the owner really enjoyed it 🙂
GM suspension engineers are one of the best!
always love a vette video! the gearing in these cars truly is insane, top of 2nd gear in my c6 is almost 90 mph. great for getting 30mpg out of it lol. the C7 automatic has better gearing but not the C6's and they're meh torque converter autos until you get to the C8. ideally you'd get an RPM transmission with ZR1 ratios and 4.10s but that's a lot of money and work
Had a C7 Z06 M7 and 2nd gear was the same way. That car was quick, I miss it since I sold it a few years ago. This video reminded me that even though it didn’t rev high it took time to get through the gears due to the ratios and the engine sounds great!
Big reason why I didn’t like my C6Z06 the gear ratios were too long in my opinion.
"We can brake tomorrow and the car will stop yesterday." Impressive!
I worked for a company that build automated factory equipment. I still remember the gauge cluster programming and test station we built that would watch 40 or 50 at a time to ensure the screens had no dead pixels or other faults. Just before shipping we got the final software for the gauges. When that Corvette logo appeared for the first time, we were all very surprised! We went on to make a bunch of machines for different parts of the interior, hood, the grille, etc. It was usually kinda hard to tell what vehicle stuff was for because there are so many supplier companies...except Ford. You always knew a Ford because there would be design changes every other week and then it was a mad dash to get the machines installed at the factory. Stuff for the Transit vans were in a state of build, scrap and remachine parts for a new design and repeat for 3 years. For the S550 mustang, they had to send workers to run production on our assembly floor to complete press and car show vehicles and for the Fiesta, one of our project managers wound up running the machine to assemble a bunch of bumpers which I, the purchasing, shipping and receiving agent, had to drive 8.5 hours to Canada to run some cars! 😂😂
What a glorious sounding machine 😍
Your footwork and miss shift reminds me of the Dire Straits song The Bug...'Standing on the throttle, Standing on the brake, in the groove till you make a mistake. ' 🙂🇦🇺
I'm glad Im not the only one that has though gm's gear spacing is backward. They've been doing that since the c5 zo6. The bace model first 4 gears were actually better spaced.
The owner looks precisely as “I am a little bit into martial arts by myself…” guy from “ Shang Chi”. Just this one is a little bit in Corvette 😂
Sounds glorious 😈😈😈😂🤣🤣 props to the owner eyes on the road 😵💫😵💫😵💫
That accelerater tap you did before changing gear which disturbed you. And it was the first time doing it since the lap started
The owner is the coolest guy ever!
The C7s with the PD blowers solve the long gearing with torque. The NA cars enjoy a shorter rear end. My V8 swapped RX7 had the 4.10 and it was awesome.
Amazing how you managed the breaking with your left foot . Everytime I tried it, I landed in the windshield 😂
I would absolutely love to see you drive a C6 Z06. Best all around Vette IMO.
Corvette ❤ best sounding / looking car 🤩
I love the c7z06!
Definitely would like to see you do some laps with a C7 Z06
How did you downshift near beginning of lap without bliping the throttle?
with all those cooling upgrade those temps are high
You make art Misha. Greetings from Poland 🤘
Genuine question: do people have to sign a waiver with you before you drive their cars?
Agree that a shifter position is strange. Same with C5 and C6. Get used to it though.
Great content as always ! But very very slow changing time between gears ...
the title made me almost feel good about myself money shifting(but not breaking) my maita, then the first few seconds of the video put me back in my place😆
I love this channel allways great content allways so authentic and by the way what a amazing car HP below 500 was it ?
and still the way it accelerates is so impressive
Corvettes have a staggering amount of torque, and are fairly light all things considered. Curb weight on a C7 Z51 with no mods is just under 3,450 pounds, and the LT1 produces as much peak torque as it does horsepower, meaning it's almost always in the power band.
@@griffinfaulkner3514 awesome car i Love the ZR1 C6 the sound pure goosebumps.
Misha, drive a Grand Sport or Z06 / wide body, even better! Also 4th gear is 1:1, very tall gearbox yes like you say but all you really need. Like having one cam shaft! Simple is better. Quantity has a quality of all its own, and that's a winning strategy right? You'll love it.
Damn, that thumbnail looks fire!!
