Absolute pleasure to be a part of this build. ❤️ For anyone wondering about the tuning, Ravi opted for the TRS handset that allows for 5 custom files, of course here Misha has tried 2 of these files, but the tuning is fully custom and to the preference of the owner of the vehicle. The wet track tune is very tapered to allow the best chance of traction specifically in the wet (see first video) of course boost pressure is also a lot lower than this particular tune. For those who don’t know the Nurburgring is very slippery when it is wet, misha did an excellent job of putting down the power best he could however you do need to appreciate that anything 300+bhp fwd in these conditions will be tricky in any case

[@johannsmith5697]

if I was letting a stranger drive my car in the wet, even if its misha... its gonna be wet map lol

[@hamzasherazi9334]

Love the mentality of the owner. He has done a great job with the car. Completely different animal in this lap.

That power curve must look like: 📈 😂

[@facundolozzia]

Lmfao i’ve driven some fwd turbo cars like that, prety frustrating, can’t imagine on a track

[@ravimander2462]

Happy to show the graph, this specific map is designed for the road. However, I’ve got a high boost track map which is also different. You need to keep in mind though track conditions, new driver to the car and tyres. On track in high boost when driven correctly in the dry, there’s pretty much no wheel spin. In the wet I use the wet map but drive it completely different.

[@ScottPC]

I'm not against it! Just looks mental and quite a handful 😂

[@peanutbutterpadre1519]

@@ravimander2462 is it an open differential?

[@gloomyxyz]

Known as the inverted SVB 😂

[@TheTechnoaddict]

Don't worry about not perfecting the heel and toe in this car. The pedal position is far from prefect in the fiesta. That's why i made a spacer to move it up and to the left a little bit. Much easier now.

[@ravimander2462]

I tried it with the spacer etc and didn’t like it. I’ve got pretty wide feet though so don’t really have to heel toe oppose to just used the ball of my foot to brake on one side and blip the throttle on the other. Need to get some pedal footage of when I’m driving now

[@TheTechnoaddict]

@@ravimander2462 you probably tried the spacer that almost everyone tried cause it was free to 3d print. I've made my own. For me it's perfect now and i have big foot 2😅.

[@CapeRoadsPOV]

I struggle with the heel and toe in the ST sometimes as well. I either get it right or I don’t 😂

[@IndyShotFirst]

I was thinking this the whole lap, under street driving conditions I’ve always struggled with heel toe in my Fiesta ST.

[@Republic3D]

They are very tight together, but with the right shoes it's easier in my opinion.

[@Mikey___]

I've missed seeing Misha's driving smile! Must have been a cracking drive, props to the owner it looks like a load of fun

[@ravimander2462]

Great driver and the map was great fun!

[@ChristopherWoods]

In many hands that would be a certified tree finder. What a class drive in a class motor! Looks like pure insanity in a straight line. Kudos to the owner for going all in with this build...

[@Jason.smith1818]

Really needs a throttle pedal spacer. Fitted the 38mm spacer to my previous ST180 and made heel n toe far far easier and more comfortable.

[@XTrojanClauseX]

I loved this video. For me the best lap video, and maybe the more joyful car build I've seen from your vids. The car lost traction even at 110kph in the rain . I can only wish to imagine what it would do on a day day at the Nürburgring. Amazing build for the owner.

[@phillipchandler8862]

Nicely sorted car and enthusiast owner. Enjoyed the lap and Misha's wet weather driving skills.👍👍

[@RWL2012]

I know of this guy, he at least used to be local to my area (Aberystwyth) and it was quite amusing after watching the previous video of this car looking at his Margatsni and seeing photos from 2 years ago of this car on Pier Street and in Tesco Aberystwyth car park, and it now being on the Nürburgring 😜 He seems to be doing very *_well_* in his life nowadays, and also quite *_popular_* on Margatsni with 3.2K followers. Small world!

[@OmarRodriguez1]

ive mentioned it before but this is such a neat build, i can appreciate a nice fwd mid 3s car (totally not biased)

[@Jasta315]

I have a FiST with just a basic mountune map and bolt ons and its a blast at my local track! Not anywhere close to this beast but still a ton of fun. I really want an LSD, these come with an open diff stock.

[@bigbaza30]

Nice, It's as if it has a power band, just like my RD250LC in 85 fitted with Allspeed exhausts, crazy lol

[@niko69u]

Awesome video and love this car!!!

man that thing pulls now! I mean it's a 1.6 fiesta as my first car, but that one had to suck in air all by itself and only made 80 HP out of it 😂

Left foot braking is something I’m yet to learn and master . Very impressive

Me gusta el hecho de que no saques los accidentes, poca gente tiene esos detalles ya que a final de mes son visitas y cuesta renunciar a ellas teniendo las imágenes del coche chocando delante vuestro.

Hey Misha do you do anything idk like maybe sim racing during the winter to keep your reflexes and skills up to par or do you just go by a season by season basis for the ring?

[@vtheruthless1v898]

It looked exactly the same as the previous map to me. What changed from the last? Well put together though 👌 props to the tuners.

[@geemac44]

Shame about the track being wet and dry when sending this little rocket through its paces 2nd time around. A tad difficult to maintain throttle control when there's wheel spin out of corners and changing gears when straight-lining. If correct, this is the 2nd flying Fiesta I've watched you send around the Nordschleife in the last 12 months or so. Big congrats to the owner of this terrific track car😎👍

I'm running close to that. Great little cars.

[@austingutierrez2709]

My Eco map in slot 2 makes a max of 16psi which is less than oem numbers, the power map makes 25+psi and 300 wheel. Access ports make tuning unbelievably easy even for my dumbself

[@humpymcsaddles3696]

i demand a dry track run! also, whats the weight on the vehicle? also, whats the mod list? my FiST was uncontrollable at 315 wtq and i wanna know how this guy is able to keep the car on the road with 50 whp/wtq more than that.

[@dennisk415]

[@giannisweightlifting3996]

What do you think is the first upgrade for track tuning a fwd hatchback like this? Power/brakes/suspension or sth else?

[@JamesBalazs]

Definitely brakes. Stock brakes on most cars aren't up to track use, and from real world experience stock ST brakes with upgraded pads don't last 2 laps of a normal track without fading. They're tiny! If they fade after ~4 miles on a normal track, they won't even last half of a Nurburgring lap. People go for more power because they want more fun, but it's really not fun having to cut every session short because the pedal stopped working.

[@andrewdavis2325]

Great fun little car with good power. It had a full cage, no helmets?

[@mgcharoudin]

The season stop and opening excitement caught me totally off guard :/

[@ravimander2462]

Why?

@@TheTechnoaddict Because it's an oxymoron.

[@Spark972]

In France on tracks if you've got a welded cage you need to have your helmet, a fire suit and a hans device. If it's a bolt-in cage, only a helmet... Laws & regulations ! 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@TamagoHead]

@@RollingRoadEFI I think it’s the backing plates, area and metal thickness, fastener quality and bolt pattern is correct can be as good. Far Easier to remove too.

@@TamagoHead As good? No. Potentially adequate? Potentially.

One of those gears sounds useless. He should try adding longer gear ratios.

Hard to tell, i have a mazdaspeed 3 with 300hp and it seems that this fiesta is just a little bit quicker. On the other hand, the polo should easily have 400 hp at 4:28. This is conceivable for a Polo R in Germany, but not particularly likely.
