Who would win? -Some of the finest engineers in the world -A cranky longboi who refuses to work

[@xander1052]

one german shortboi :P

[@alvaroolavarria1832]

A lack of time for the factory team to settle down before starting a proper design fase before the car starts to be built and to be tested. You can't just take 8 moths to have a proper LM winner car from scratch without almost anything before that period. You would need a TON OF MONEY AND LUCK, which they didn't have so.... a lack of time and money. Original idea was fine, but with the bad management and luck of money and time to develop the car... it ended the way it did... its a shame

[@tinglydingle]

I met Tim Peake the other day and asked him about his time on the International Space Station. It was pretty interesting, he had a lot of valuable insights, I suppose as a result of the unique perspective of being so remote from the rest of civilisations. One of the things I asked him was what you could see of mankind from so far away; he said the most obvious signs were cities at night, but that it's a myth that you can see the Great Wall of China from space. He did however mention a narrow but unfeasibly long car of some kind, similar in proportions to a train, speeding around northern France at incredible speed. He asked his colleagues and mission control about it, but they were as perplexed as he was, and it remained a mystery. I just smiled knowingly, and shook his hand.

favorite comment ever lmao 😂

[@Oblio1942]

the only reason I dont believe you is because you said 'speeding'

[@Mark_dj86]

This comment put a smile on my face

I'd love to see a Delta Wing attempt at a fast lap.

[@KevinBYee]

Oh god yes please

Right lets create the Longboi Endurance Challenge so this car can have a home again.

[@davidbowman2991]

And add the m8 GTE while you are at it

[@HECKproductions]

"aim for the apex... miss it" me at every corner in ever race ever

[@B4R0N.]

Sad we never got to see a fully functional car taking on the 919 and R18.

[@kieranodonnell640]

Yeah, a couple of years more development could have put it right up there with the best

[@Official_MikeyT]

@@kieranodonnell640 I'm back here because I drove the car in GT7 last night and I realized that it would probably be really fast if Nissan adapted it for Hypercar.

[@davidbowman2991]

I miss you longboi

[@dalton-at-work]

the SENTIMENTAL boi sends off his longest steed

[@ganymedeix9511]

I'll miss you and the team driving the longboi, Jimmy. Watching you all at the 12 hours of Istanbul was pure class.

[@the_puzzle3412]

Racing Truck vs. The Nordschleife next?

Mercedes Tankpool 24 truck, Volvo Iron Knight, or a Formula Truck?

As fun as that must be to drive, the amount of driver input required would make it a real handful over the duration of an endurance race. Great video as usual!

Those wheel arches make the track even narrower. Can you visualise an entire lap in your head.. Love how you know the corner names. Learning from Jim.. Took my two stroke kart out in the wet today.. First ever go in it. Crazy fun. Good time you made with this lap. Planted good to watch a couple times. I'll be there for real next summer. 5 min 23 sauber C9 and 4 min 59 F1... Simulated my PB's

[@guitaristforfunn]

The game he is playing is rFactor 2 for those who want to know.

[@SrApathy33]

I've been wondering indeed. Thank you.

[@1Carnaby]

Truly an "if in doubt flatout" car

[@piercem.5143]

This car seems about as controllable as my life. Edit: How did this get so many likes?

[@hellomadetScuffed]

It's perfect metaphor for my marriage. Massive failure

[@mplkgr6797]

@@hellomadetScuffed It's also a great metaphor for my dick ; long, powerful but not really controlable.

[@alexracing4180]

@@mplkgr6797 Are you sure about that?

AlexRacing its all psychology. People that brag about something, then mostly it isnt true. Simple fact...

[@twintwix123456789]

Time to take control of that beast. Mhmmmm! Yeehaa!

[@CzarOfMars]

This car looks insanely fun to drive! Drifting through every corner like in an action flick.

[@fastmadcow]

dang this car is where I started with your channel at least for streams. It has fond memories in my mind. Great car, always fun watching you drive it with that iconic blue flame spewing out of the engine.

[@allaboutthegyro]

The feels! Such nostalgia I have right now.

[@eamonahern7495]

I watched Aidan Millward's story time video on the real life car today. I really enjoy his story times from the real world of motorsports

[@andreivinczeller4547]

*long boy enthusiast*

[@Antraxo]

Felt nostalgic watching and hearing this car.

[@JDM_Jeffro]

These Nordschleife hotlap videos will NEVER get old. Good on ya Jimmo👍

[@LeuraHD]

That was gorgeous to watch. We can see the relationship you have with the car. Love it

[@zrob8]

I miss this car. I'm really disappointed Nissan didn't pursue a future in Le Mans with this car

[@Automotion_Images]

Brings me back to the VLMS this year, I was visiting Battle Abbey and had your live stream on my phone watching the ending, long live the longboye!

[@davidbowman2991]

Should be lapping Indy right now

[@benyahun]

Jimmy Put Veronica on that time sheet for realz. She did a lap too

[@daddywhatchucookin2924]

There’s a great documentary on amazon prime about that 2015 Le Mans. Nissan’s attempt was just abysmal, was deffo a brutal watch. Seeing Nico the Hulk take the chequered flag was pretty sweet tho

[@katrinapaton5283]

Thank you so much Jimmy for the fond memories, will always love those licks of blue flame from the exhausts.

[@BotulinSpikedMarzipan]

I don't think you're a furry.... Skinwalker

[@jarbydnjksd]

I've said it countless times before, and I shall not hesitate to say it again - the enthusiasm that you have, and the sheer insane talent of being able to talk while driving (something I struggle to do in my farting little Polo at the best of times) is what I and literally thousands of others signed up and sponsored for. Long Live Long Boi

[@grummpyoldfart6911]

Mate Nate, Headless Joe and Jimmer, the bad old days. F

[@tijmenberends242]

F headless joe best moment on strim when I was There(and cone ofc)

[@1xRacer]

After watching you push on codemasters F1 to watching this, it's incredibly evident how different pushing in a better physics model sim is. Very entertaining thanks for doing this. For long time viewers, emotional attachment aswell.

[@apophisstr6719]

This car is not a failure, it's a precious experiment that contributes into pushing racing & car technology forward.

[@tomasbeha1645]

Hi, Jimmer! Was great to see the meme-machine revisited, glad we/you made it happen in the day - this video gave me chills :)

[@andyc280081973]

It's funny how the weirdest things can put is on an emotional journey. Hope you're OK chap. Dr Seuss has it: "Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened". Clearly a great set of memories for the ol' Nissan. Hope you take it around a few more tracks with us!

[@mateogarcia6942]

do the mercedes benz 190 evo 2, a total beast.

i kinda miss the longboi(even thou i hated it when Magenta chose it) and Magenta/GNS Lemans ending in VEC S9 if i remember correctly

[@lolkingrd440]

I wish my thing was as long as the longboi

[@memewhile6242]

Farewell GNS, best longbois

[@petiertje]

Nice video Jimmy, it was nice to see you having so much fun.

[@masonsparkle]

I always play GT Sport with the LMP1 class (Group 1). This thing is always at the back of the grid and that makes perfect sense.

[@DannyPlaysStuff]

Goodbye Longboi.... o7 . . . . . . Now can we get Porker GNS....?

[@rodrigoalmendro3118]

just so brutal all the sliding, love it

[@simracingnoob2248]

I want that car in Iracing

[@101bluedrop]

The return of the long boi god fucking yes

[@bryanlim8614]

Such an amazing concept. Shame it was only a concept, and never worked. Sadly, I wasn't around when you did the VEC in this, but I can feel that it's special to you. also rv around nordschleife pls

[@LilahBlair]

Even watching this car, I'm on edge as it slides and squeals and screams. The longboye is such a beast and watching Jimmy and GNS drive it for VEC was a really important part of my year. I tried to drive it in GTsport once and I was not worthy. The most ascended of boyes. Goodnight gtr-lm

[@TheMatze2304]

Hey Jimmer, Long time Viewer here. I love your Videos and your dedication to simracing as you were the inititation for me to buy a Wheel and drive on my Computer. I wanted to ask if you have any Car decals planned in the making or so because i wanna decorate my 428i with a nice jimmer decal. Please Keep us entertained as you do now but also watch out for your own Health! If you Need a break we will understand it. Many hearts from Germany.

[@TheHadrian54]

I had the stupidest grin watching this :D Long boi will always be in our hearts

[@scullystie4389]

I love how powerful and quirky this car is, and the sound! I wish it had actually worked out in real life.

[@hvymtal8566]

Such a fun car, plant the throttle to get it rotating, plant it deeper to straighten it out. Completely different driving experience and really put the size of your balls into perspective

[@SimonSNB]

Im betting that jimmy went and had a bit of a cry afterwards

[@richardwintle1020]

Finally unlocked the Longboi on Forza Motorsport 7. After struggling with it and cursing it in the silly pursuit challenge race, I took it out for an enduro at Le Mans - and completely fell in love. It is fast, it is weird, and it is fabulous. :)

[@angryginger791]

Great drive, Jimmy. I love cars that you just have to flog around track to get the best out of them.

[@joeciampa]

Great to see her on track again

[@eggcillfoley5130]

seeing the longboi just go for it definitely is fun to watch

[@GrulbGL]

for the first time, i saw Jimmy really full send on nordschleife

Great commentary on this one

Jimmy, Bathurst is on this weekend...come on mate!

[@bellum1851]

I think it was meant to have a fly wheel hybrid system. Not an electric motor.

[@FoxiFyer]

lil' bit of feels from this one

[@barneyward6448]

Hmmm, car I want to see you do a lap of the Nordschleife is on Assetto Corsa in Michael Schumacher's first F1 car he drove. The Jordan 191.

[@epicryan1077]

Jimmy. U should do an outtakes video of how many times u crash with cars that come here

[@superman28607]

Is there any mod that gives the world's fastest mobility chair? Yes the wheelchair that can go 70mph. That'll be very interesting to watch on Nordschleife

[@CptJackZ]

Nice! One of my favorite LMP1s. As bad as it was, it was beautiful and could be a comic hero's car.

[@pnkrally]

I miss driving this car in practice, but now I am in another meme dragging the GNS history through with the M8 BIG BOI

[@fabianrudde1331]

p n k oh hello frank

[@apophisstr6719]

May be Nissan or someone should turn this car into an experimental project kinda like the 919 Evo

[@thierryman]

Seriously, Jimmer needs to run his own little endurance championship

[@axing_]

such a fun car, would love to see it still running in some league...

No leagues that run this car except Toby’s GT Sport league 😉

[@AirForce101HD]

Drive the Toyota TS050 Hybrid next

[@JoanseCastillo]

next ride, Delta Wing (?)

[@ZeldaACFan17]

Is this GT-R LM based on the URD Shiro PX1? I have that car for Assetto Corsa, but I modded it with an extra gear, for 6 gears instead of 5. I like 6 speed gearboxes most, but the more, the merrier, up to a point at least (Current F1 is a bit overkill with 8 gears...)

[@SuPeRsHaDiC103]

Do the Deltawing next just as asend off to another (failed) prototype but quite possibly the quirkiest ever made.

[@SuspiciousBulgarian]

Goodnight, sweet prince

[@sandasturner9529]

People might call this car a massive failure but I know I would get a serious kick from racing in this car. Sometimes it is about the experience and not about winning.

[@dsch0]

Engineering learns from failure as much as from success.
