  • Hey everyone, welcome back to Daily Downshift! Last Saturday we finally took the BMW M2 G87 to the race track since it recently completed it's break in service. This was my first time at this particular track and of course the first time doing it in a manual vehicle. Things didn't start off so hot and I was having a hard time balancing the car and managing my inputs.. but thankfully with a few sessions under my belt I started feeling a lot more confident and starting pushing more aggressively! DDT at Mosport is a lower speed, highly technical track so the fact that the G87 was able to easily handle it and excel speaks volumes to it's capabilities. Enjoy the video!

    Awesome video mate. Try moving your seat closer to the steering wheel so your arms aren't so stretched out, this might help with staying in place in the seat as you can push yourself back into the seat more when you go through corners. I have the same problem as I'm paralysed from the chest down and I have no core stability and I track my car with non-buckets.

      That should help me quite a bit until I get buckets, thanks for the tip!

    Do you have a sim setup? Feel like it would help a lot with confidence on using manual and heal-toe downshitfting on a track and its preeeetty fun!

      I do not, always considered getting one but then again the money can go towards more car mods :D

    Solid lap. I was worried for you in some corners, you were pushing it hard. Be careful not to put tires on grass, spin guaranteed.

    Is it just the editing that didn't show you torque your wheel afterwards to spec, with the tire just kissing the ground? Just a comment for safety reasons. P.s. looks like a really fun track.

      Don’t worry I’m super paranoid about lug nuts being torqued. I torqued em to 104lb ft with my torque bar, just didn’t show it in the video 😁

  • @karlrushton8514
    @karlrushton8514 Рік тому +1

    Get an eventuri intake you get torque back as it allows turbos to spool instantly so I hear. When mine arrives I will be getting that setup.

      Oh no way, if they actually do that much then they're definitely worth the hefty price tag. Do let me know please!

      So, correct me if i’m wrong. But the 8 speed auto supposedly corrects the lag in 3 and 4 gear over the manual…

    Really surprised to see, how few new M2 have the bucket seats, plenty available at dealerships in my country. Zero have the bucketseats…

      80% of the M2's on the road right now are HEA spec models. To the best of my knowledge, I don't think any HEA's came with buckets.
