Argus vs misha ,batle of the year😮😊

[@Adrenaliving]

no contest... ;o) Argus is a master of car control.

Not as smooth as Misha but very fast - I would like to watch these two guys face off in same cars although I give a slight advantage to Misha.

[@Racingwespe]

@@bokiNYC definitely smoother than misha. its a pure dance

[@bokiNYC]

@Racingwespe Not sure if we watched the same video but definitely NOT smoother, sorry, Misha doesn't drift into corners sliding all 4 wheels loosing time - that's not smooth, that's slow actually. I bet Misha could teach him a lesson or two on how to do a faster lap on the Ring, he has at least 7-8 thousand laps on the Ring by now. But it did look great to see some drifting in the corners, props for that - he definitely had his fun. 👍

[@Racingwespe]

Macchina pazzesca, guida come sempre sporca ma molto efficace! Complimenti sempre molto bravo

[@sveeny]

The car seems more playful and more prone to oversteer than the pre-facelift. Do you agree? Do you like that the Track mode varies between 60:40 and 30:70? I imagine it would be a bit more unpredictable than a fixed 50:50... But it looks like I'm wrong.

[@danielrazali8260]

Looks fun to drive

[@largus]

It is 🥰

[@erwinpaumen132]

it's underpowered in the straith lines but fenomenal in the corners.

Do you like the AT8 gearbox? Any overheating issues with the gearbox or engine oil? It seems even more controllable at the limit compared to the old version, isn’t it?

[@altin.Top_G]

Is same like ZF😊

[@MrLoose26]

incroyable de maniabilité on dirait un kart

[@DanielHernandezBC]

which tires were used?

[@largus]

Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S

[@SUPERSTEF79]

I couldn't imagine how to drive my GR Yaris like having soap on the rear wheels ... how do you do that? It provides sooo much grip and after some realignement it provides even more, so that you can rely on the car not to turn around. Watching this it looks like the car wants to drift all the time. Seems to be a complete different setup 😀

[@highway9patrol]

Respect!

[@yarisTSk]

Would you buy the manual over the auto? I’m hoping to auto handles extra power once modded

[@largus]

AT is not bad... but I prefer MT on this little rally car 😉

[@colinslager]

I liked the interior of the model before this one more. This one seems a bit more playfull when it comes to driving and cornering it seems. Is this a dual clutch btw?😮

[@largus]

It's not a dual clutch but an AT with torque converter 😉

[@sonotoneful]

J ai reconnu les mains et le pilotage de Mathieu Sentis en espérant qu il n a pas eu le chat noir des crevaisons comme au touquet en 2013 ^^^

[@largus]

Et pourtant, il se murmure que les rallyes lui manquent 🥹

[@r3forge]

what woul you d personally prefer mr driver? an alpine a110 or the new gr yaris?

[@big-R]

It seems quite a bit faster in the uphil section, i guess because of the new (and more) gearing + increased power.

[@largus]

It's the opposite 😅 Fifth gear is shorter, so the sixth comes earlier and it's more difficult for the engine to "drive" this one

[@big-R]

@@largus interesting, thank you sir

[@DEOK_BAE]

What are the strengths of the Yaris GR compared to the Hyundai i20n or i30n? There's a big price difference.

[@lesteph69]

Waow

[@natifgwada]

🔥🔥👍🏼

[@richardkozloski8019]

Did you run any laps where the transmission did all the shifting? What did you think of it?

[@largus]

Yes. In Sport mode, on the brakes, early downshifts are perfect. But sometimes, when you don't go full throttle (let's say 90-95% if you "hesitate" a little bit), the gearbox shifts to the next gear too early and you end up at too low engine speed.

[@richardkozloski8019]

So it expects you to go full Sebastian Loeb all the time. But you wont have to worry about being passed on the way to work. 😇

[@richardkozloski8019]

How much does knowing how to drift help you through the switch backs? Does it help you drive deeper into the curve knowing you can pull it out if you get in a little too deep?

[@Midshipcub]

Nice driving. Eager to see what the auto is like in the Corolla for the states. Does the car let you hold the gear in manual mode and bounce off rev limiter or does it shift automatically?

[@largus]

If you drive in Sport mode, it doesn't upshift automatically 😉

[@user-rk6ry2bv5e]

Perfect driving car is dancing on limit

[@largus]

Merci ! Cela pourrait être amusant 🙂

[@PIDOFREAK]

Extremely good! Perfect car control. What tyre pressures (hot or cold) did you drive?

[@largus]

Thanks ! Too much pressure on the front in this lap : 2.8 bar (hot). It's better not to exceed 2.5

[@PIDOFREAK]

@@largus Okay yeah that’s a bit much. But i’m much more interested in the rear since it comes out all the time in this lap 🤣

[@largus]

2.4 (but the driving is more responsible than the pressure here 😅 )

Drifting is not a "hot lap", though I wish the GR Corolla could drift like that .

[@largus]

You're right 😉

Get Misha to do camera work and editing next time.

[@murocossie]

Slidy handling, dashboard is like a pickup truck

[@m4u5]

Any heating issues with transmission and intercooler or center diff? GR corolla can only do couple of laps before oil and center diff heat up. Adding AT transmission will increase overall heat even more. Thanks

[@largus]

After four laps (80 km), we had a central diff overheating issue despite the new NACA duct undercover

[@m4u5]

​@largus thanks for the reply. Assuming 4 continue laps ? And oil and transmission not heating?

[@largus]

We did a cool down session in the middle, it happened at the very end of the last lap. No issue with engine or AT oil 😉

[@m4u5]

​@largus thanks that's good news that trans not overheating. Could you share which hot hatch (economy) car you prefer for track duty?

​@largus could you share between golfr 8.5 and GR AT which Is better performance
