Owner/driver didn’t disappoint with this street legal Ferrari. What a car !!

[@stoneeh]

Yeah, usually it sucks when it's not Misha behind the wheel, because in 90+% of the cases he drives better than the owner; but this time, I also didn't turn out disappointed. Proper skillful send by the owner.

[@Hardcaslte]

Dude this is what my replay looks like on assetto corsa using an RSS GT3 car.... after crashing the first 4 laps and finally getting a fully dialed lap in. The speeds are pretty much the same too, and I love how you hear the tires getting worked. Those laps are guy knows what he's doing behind the wheel.

[@louisnguyen6038]

@@Hardcaslte The crazy part is that we do those speeds on the sim, and this guy does this stuff daily at these speeds in real life

[@Neishy4AGTE]

Yes, no reset to pit here.

[@erraldstyler]

well, street legal is a very stretched term here. Getting plates on a car like this is basically impossible outside the UK. Go buy one of those and try to register it, lets say in Germany. They´ll straight up send you to a mental hospital, confiscate the car and assume you bought it by selling weed to minors!

[@nrnpwr]

This guy can drive!

[@junceiro]

More than that. It's the look on his face. Absolutely effortless!

[@letsgetdoing]

Agreed!! Dudes focus is REAL! It's the road vs him and he looks determined to win.

[@bodinski100]

[@rajarizal4739]

Very impressed with the heat management of this car, the coolant and oil temperature.

[@madmax]

Incredible suspension setup, the car handles the bumps like butter, takes corners like a dream.

[@ethanmonat]

He wasn't indicating that he was going to move over, but that he noticed that the vehicle behind was faster and that he was aware of and allowing the pass. At most trackdays the rules are that the driver being overtaken will indicate via turn signal or hand that they see the vehicle behind them and that the faster vehicle may pass. The vehicle being overtaken stays on the "racing line" so as to be predictable and safe, and it is the responsibility of the driver of the passing vehicle to do so safely, and off the racing line.

[@texeract6209]

@@ethanmonatYou need a map? Seems like you are a bit lost lol

[@gt4lex]

That's just quality suspension in general. There's this misconception that race car suspension = back breaking, when it's pretty much the opposite (when factored against spring rate of course).

Thank you to everyone commenting on how well the vehicle handles 🙌🏼 Props to the owner Gary who also pilots the 458 spectacularly. It is nice to work with precision drivers who know how to handle a car at high speed! Thank you to Misha for the mention, this is a great video showcasing the Ferrari and how well it operates since we did the bespoke suspension, kinematic and setup 👍🏼

WOW! That second lap was really something. Car just goes wherever you point it even when driving at the limit. GREAT driver and incredible car. One of my favorites you've ever done.

[@aussiegruber86]

I agree, not sure if I would want any faster 😂

[@Mike_Bitcoin_X]

Nice to see a Ferrari get driven.

[@93Camix]

When Misha starts to close his eyes like, "just gonna feel it and go through this experience" is when you know you are doing great in the lap

[@mgcharoudin]

This

[@gtrix3240]

Honestly, that second lap was a blast! The car was dialed in so well, making it seem like it had limitless grip. And the driver is a Total beast. The way he whipped that 458 around the corners was insane! You could just tell he knew that car inside and out. With a naturally aspirated engine, I reckon it doesn't get much better than that, even compared to today's super cars

[@darkstari]

This guy must be a fighter pilot! So calm, so precise. Very professional. Nice to see private supercars getting driven like this!

[@stoneeh]

Yes!! Badass machine! Raw & fast. A pleasure to soak these laps in.

[@leehaloover2810]

Wow, the way the owner handled his car, drove it like an absolute champ, and takes a certain set of mental fortitude to drive such a high value car on full send like that! What a legend!

[@carlofracasso9760]

@@RiasGremoryS54 doesnt matter. anyonw with a brain can see that 510hp < 570hp, so obv its gonna be faster in the straights. but the ferrari is not _quicker_ . if the 458 is so much better than the 3rs, wheres the 6:49 record of the 458?? regular 458 is slower than a *_DODGE_* around the ring, 7:38 LMAO, you think a little wing, some wheels, and slightly less weight is gonna make up for a *_FORTY NINE_* second gap?? the numbers dont lie, ferrari fangirl...🤣

[@TexRobNC]

It's weird having driven this car a LOT in various sims, and it always has the most amazing turn in. Then you watch this, and bam, amazing turn in, and it feels kind of amazing at how well they must have captured that.

[@mthxjzz6462]

Yes. Was thinking about that while watching as well. A moded 458 is my Favorit car in GT7. Controllable Oversteering at high speed. This guy Gary has cojones.

[@ahmadfahmy9292]

You mean the Thomas Preining lap? Yeah honestly shocked how aggressive over the top he was on that

you gotta excuse the driving of the Porsche. His license plate "SU-FF 247" translated to german basically means "Drunk 247"

What a car! Almost forgotten. Driver was outstanding as well. Best 2 laps l’ve seen so far with a street legal car. Running costs were smaller than l thought. Man, it’s so underrated, this 458. The Speciale A has 605 hp… but much more expensive to buy, this one is more than enough! Great job u guys, thx for a wonderful clip! 👍🏻

[@erraldstyler]

the problem is getting it on the road. 99% impossible outside UK , USA or some third world shithole. With a Speciale you just get insurance and pick up your plates...

I was lucky enough to get a ride in one at laguna seca when he was testing on a track day for a race the next weekend at daytona. I have never felt my insides move before in a car. And that noise right behind your head. 🏎️🤸🏿 At my braking point at the end of the straight i do 105mph, at the same pointhe was still accellerating and at 162!!! Then he hit the brakes and turnedinto the corner. All my guts moved! Insane!!!
