That MK8 Golf R was moving impressive for a sec! If you're the owner and see this please give Misha a go!! Judging by the wing and akra exhaust it's got Nurburgring mode So that would be good to test out!!

[@ZenzDeluxe]

Misha thought it wasn't stock, but at the time of publishing this video (let alone recording which would have been earlier), Golf 8 R tunes weren't on the market yet (i know this because i own one). This car was probably stock, it just has great acceleration and of course the DSG. Remember these cars are capable of 7:50 - 7:40ish BTG. I personally would love to let Misha drive my 8 R but it has warranty until 2026, so no track mods.

I have a question and thought maybe people here would answer because it's track driving related and can't find anything online, and they did talk about it in this video. Is there any inconvenients of running higher temp capable brake fluid ? I'm gonna do a brake upgrade some day on my e36 and the price difference between rbf660 and rbf700 (what this guy used on this m4, which is why I thought of asking) is barely anything, so I thought I'd get the higher temp resistant one, but the fact they're almost the same price with a big difference between the temp made me wonder of why is the 660 still even a thing if the 700 is that much better so I wonder if there's also other differences and potentially inconvenients.
