My First Endurance Race at the Nurburgring

[@GTBMuckface]

imagine getting sent out into your first NLS race with no mirror a rubbing tire, and GT3s all around you. what a drive from jimmy to keep his shit together and put those laps in. id be freaking out.

[@O12port799]

The start was outrageous up until the hit too

[@motoazracer6422]

We’re all proud of you Steve!!!

[@xboxbenny]

Congrats Super GT! You killed it out there, super impressive

[@EeneMeeneMiste]

in this case i allow you to speak for me :D

[@BrianGlassEOD]

Is it odd to feel great affection and pride for three guys I've never met? You all deserve every victory that comes your way.

Yes, actually a mental illness. Its called parasocial/- parasocial relationships

We all did our part as community members by liking, and commenting, working the algorhytm. Of course it's not because of us they got the chance, but they couldn't do the same without having this recepy, without these numbers in subs etc. Of course there is affection since this is giving more insight than even 'Drive to Survive'. We know where they all started.

[@reacher6967]

It's crazy I wanted to cry.... so proud of these 3 guys

[@M4R4T1N4]

Crazy how realistic graphics looks in those modern games

[@emmata98]

Raytracing is really showing off

[@paparoach007]

Graphics on modern games these days are scarily realistic, it's literally like real life. Back when I was a kid in the late 80s early 90's we'd be lucky to get a Microsoft computer or a Sinclair/ZX Spectrum (a little 8-bit computer that was released in the UK in the 80s, tonnes of fun with a lot of games on it). I would love to play on it again someday to see if lives up to the memory I had at the time as a kid. I'm honestly gobsmacked on how technology has advanced so quickly since the 80's and 90's and the kids of today don't appreciate how good it actually is now because we live in the digital-age lol.

@@paparoach007 woooosh

[@emmata98]

@@paparoach007 comparative: yes, but they are partially quite far from real. Especially lighting, and simulations (like from water) are lacking, and due to the computation power needed for better lighting and simulating stuff, it will be for quite a while. But yes, stuff like textures and with things like Parallax and Raytracing, it gets better and better.

Scott Egg going P6 on track was one of the Gran Turismo moments of all time.

[@noahbarton6397]

for real!!! I thought that was hilarious

[@cizableS]

crazy to see a sim racer racing around something as crazy as the nurburgring, great job man.

[@RuanAntunes7]

He’s not just a Sim Racer anymore.

[@Kader3636]

He’s kinda been an irl racer

[@Freedom_Born]

Karting helps

[@CROWNZI]

Its normal nowadays, 2 of the sim racers are racing in F1

[@Freedom_Born]

@@CROWNZI Max, Albon, Norris, LeClerc, Sargent Yuki, etc etc... Sims nowadays are good enough to practice real world skills. So most drivers use and race on them too

[@lipeprusch]

Its very special to see this video. Years of watching you drive this same track in Gran Turismo, and suddenly you’re driving a real racing car in Nurburgring, overtaking cars, pushing to the limit, what a treat! Awesome to see you all having fun despite the difficulties. Lots of big shunts but the falcon team and everyone worked hard to keep it on the track!

[@VelhaGuardaTricolor]

16:17 It doesn't get much better than this! Precision, Timing, Cool, Commitment and the best narration in the business!

[@tamastasi6754]

That overtake into bravery corner was something else! Congrats for the whole team!

[@gt_blaze1764]

This makes me happy beyond words. I've been a subscriber for over 4 years and to see what you've done with your career is just incredible. This is just the beginning of so many special things to come.

[@gabrieldsfaria]

Congratulations for the black falcon team for this awesome work on the car throughout the whole race

[@geehammer1511]

Your racecraft is amazing, that move at around 16:20 was epic. Can't wait to see how you guys do in the next race.

[@nathanfyfe1169]

13:55- think it’s understated how scary that looked/could have been 😬😬 fastest part of the track coming into a tight closed off chicane. Was sweating watching that safe 😂

[@ainmeile]

I know right? Instant core memory for Steve, I reckon.

[@tmkracing4447]

13:30 what a beautiful moment, it's really like watching you on sim You're driving is genuinely worthy of appraisal Sir 👏🏾 16:00 you absolute animal 😆💪 It's awesome seeing the three of you together doing this having been a fan of the three of you for a while now Keep that fire burning 🔥

[@metacob]

Seeing Steve surrounded by adoring fans made me smile!

[@ImJoel]

omg that last move was an absolute masterclass. that youtuber was so right about your driving in his analysis. you’re so comfortable putting the car in the smallest pocket and it’s amazing to see you doing it in real life now as well

[@Scytez]

Damn. It sucked that it started that way but you guys and especially the mechanics, pulled off an amazing result despite all the unfortunate events. GG's all around! 👏

[@KayeWhye]

Hear! Hear! Well said!

[@GPharaod9]

Clean respectful driving as expected.

[@vipper3344]

Congratulations on your team's P3 win (with a flat tyre to boot)! Here's to winning more races in the future. Cheers! 👏🍕🍾🚗🥉🏁

[@Technicaldif]

Hey Steve, although the other guys may upload their clips sooner. Not all of us are subscribed to them. They might vlog a lot but yours being longer vids just talking through your drive is amazing :)

[@simon_969]

The stamina and skill required to do this is definitely no joke awesome race guys The black falcon guys are incredible that the car can get fixed so quickly to continue the race

[@johng6109]

It’s kinda crazy that the 2 pros are the ones who wrecked but not you. Great job Steve!

[@somberyu]

I thought Jimmy and Steve were on similar footing when it came to experience in real racing

[@ozturk2228]

​@@somberyu though steve has much more experience on karting, jimmy has far more experience on racing cars

[@chrissorreda4982]

Jimmy was hit by a car that spun directly in front of him with not much space to the left or time to react. Misha on the other hand.. I’m pretty sure that first wreck was driver error, braking while turning is my guess + the bumpy undulating part of the track.

[@ElCuedo]

​@@chrissorreda4982 I can not imagine that being a mistake by Misha. It was crazy how quick the back of the car went with no chance to save it. Misha drives this track the whole year round, he wouldnt misjudge a corner/breaking point like that. Pretty sure it was confirmed that there was oil on track.

[@lasttrueviking3687]

​@ElCuedo that's why he's always binning it. No care and thinks he's Verstappen. 😂

[@samuelpettington2241]

Just watched gran turismo and spotted you in a scene driving the nurburgring haha :P Also, the number of times the team caught up with other cars in braking sections was really cool. Sim racing helping with knowing car feel and limits perhaps?

[@real_Zuramaru]

despite all the setbacks you guys had, y'all manage to still power through and make it to the end a big congrats to everyone!

[@tomcat7493]

Well done steve!! Well deserved p3. Were all proud of you

[@djgill92]

From Xbox to Playstation to Real Racing. Enjoyed the journey of watching you grow in your career. Very inspiring. All the best to you brother. And thank you for all the amazibg content. Hands down my favourite KZbinr.

[@korrosiv3]

this mans living out all of our dream. So happy for you Steve and thanks for letting us be a part of it!

[@chrishuyler3580]

Congrats man, it's so great seeing your years of dedication to sim racing pay off IRL. I hope this is the first of many adventures on track. You nailed it!

[@r3act-]

Just imagine the carnage, if there were multiclass races in GT7 😅 Great job, guys! You did the best you could, given the circumstances!

[@KayeWhye]

I'm glad it went as well as it did. It could have been much worse after such an ominous day in the first race. Congratulations on some fine real world race driving. Can't wait to see more of this trio on track! 😉

[@SaifAtari]

Such a great classical SuperGT schooling, not drawn into drama, but focus on technical reflection of the race, great realistic analysis ans commentary!

[@leastresistance1062]

Your wheelmanship is so calm and clean, Steve, you look fantastic. Jensen Button style 😁. Thanks to the three of you for providing some top drawer content over the last couple of weeks, it's been awesome

[@brandonabbottabbott4628]

the fact they wrapped the bumpers and stickered them up just shows everyone’s dedication when it comes to racing.

[@Pratalax]

NGL with the first shot of this video, for a split second i was thinking "wow the graphics look good in this". God damn, good on Mischa for having the mental fortitude to brace, i bet i'd have just clutched the wheel and broke my hands... Holy shit, with the wrap and everything! Wizards!! That was awesome. Hats off to the team, fantastic show all round! That last move you made was a right puckerer!

[@MaartenvanHeek]

Well done, wish I could have been there to watch. Nice commentary style too!

[@arkeys74]

What a move at 16:25 Extra brave at Bravery Curve 😃💪 Really enjoyed the video, you guys are doing great!

[@ronholmesuk825]

I loved it, watched it all live on stream - you all did yourselves proud! Can't wait to see more from you all.

[@Freedom_Born]

1:21 Oh boy the Bilstein ladies didn't look very pleased. Man you pulled off some killer moves Browny

[@SomethingRedundant]

This is criminally underviewed. This is amazing footage and commentary

[@arthspidey666]

So cool to see you do commentary on your gameplay vids to actual races. Incredible! Bravo!

[@RoryHanna]

Only came across this now somehow but this is crazy. Jimmy and you are showing everyone anything is possible and just how good sim drivers are and that its not just a game. Superb work. Great to see misha help out too what a guy.

[@Bsaelman]

I was cheering you guys on from the marshalpostst, Saturday from the GP strecke, and Sunday from MP 61 and 71 later on. Wonderful to see how far you came!

[@banterman]

16:23 Serious stuff! The stamp was licked!

[@amyrupp6059]

Hey Steve, Been watching you since the Pandemic. Thank you. Thanks to your expertise, I’m consistently in top 4-6%. On leaderboards on GT, without much practice. I hope to share the track with you one day. Much love from Miami. -John

[@sahilbankar99]

I just watched this start to end no pause and skips. Truly entertaining.

[@Corey91666]

Holy shit those overtakes looked brutal. Its a whole different feeling knowing your life, the opponents life and the expensive cars are all on the line. Of course you cant think about that as it would compromise your driving but damn!!!

[@ayesterrockz]

Why did this feel like seeing my son go to school for the first time?

[@Georgernaut]

The fact he ended his stint p6 is Awesome

[@rvas324]

Congratulations to the three of you! Not sure how you were able to see during that sunset though, all that glare would have had me yeeting the car through a fence!

[@SimRaceFly80]

So happy for you Steve! Congrats! On a side note, have you ever thought of creating a Discord to allow for more general chat with and between your followers? Would love to see sections for GT7, Forza, your IRL racing career, etc.

[@amtfurwertewiederbeschaffu9025]

What a move @ 16:20 . Big respect.

I was literally cheering just watching you race man!!!! Hope I get the chance to meet ya one day and show you even more support! Get in there Steve!!!!

[@ztemde978]

I can’t imagine the levels of stress and adrenaline flowing through your veins racing for that long. Must be quite exhilarating. Awesome job by the whole team.

[@Pshady]

That last overtake was a club 100 send. Also that high speed moment was wild. You are super brave and I love that. In before reupload due to car data being shown.

[@ciregreen8]

Incredible stuff, get in there Lewis. All the GT experience helped pull off that overtake

[@GetAPlaster]

Amazing footage Steve, well done! The fact that you were six place on the staturday was classic...

[@poptart2000s]

Steve should replicate their IRL race in the Sim when he plays GT7 so we can see the differences in how the car feels in RL vs Sim

[@KoalaBear92]

Yesss the NLS videos are here!! Amazing work Steve, Jimmy and Misha! great racing and congratulations on your first NLS finish :D

[@Gloden1]

Bro you went from playing on the Nurb on a game to racing on the Nurb IRL you a legend.

[@shadiexd9501]

Congratulations on your first nls race!!! Also just something I thought of. Whenever you pass someone especially on a straight seeing the rear view camera of them might be a nice touch. Congrats again love ur vids.

It’s stunning to see you go from PS4 to Karts to this magical series.

[@Christian-pw5ws]

Simply amazing watch you race now IRL! 😀

[@juancuelloespinosa]

12:23 I'm shocked they left the a/c system installed instead of saving the weight and adding an air duct or something

[@jorhop4005]

A/c is probably required

[@groundloss]

@@jorhop4005 Page 44 of the technical regulations (unless there are specific changes per class that I didnt catch): "The original air conditioning may be removed.#" AC is running by using parts of the power of the engine, so disabling it would allow for more power to be used on speed. Removing it alltogether can save between 10kg to 20kg, which is around 1% of the weight propably.

[@juancuelloespinosa]

@@jorhop4005 maybe, though i saw some drivers with their windows rolled down on jimmy's video

[@jorhop4005]

@@groundloss well I know at least the SP9 cars require a/c. Idk about the other classes

ac i think is not even properly working if you drive it hard on the ring if i remember from driving touristenfarten and that was not even fast with my road car 😂

I thought Jimmy was the underdog driver here - Misha with all his experience on the track, you in carting and 200 laps on GTSport. But he did bloody well in difficult conditions, as did Misha overcoming the grief of his disaster on day 1. Pleased for you all.

[@AbdulHalim-nk8dk]

Someone in the comment said. Betwen the two of them, jimmy have more experience in car, while steve more experience in cart.
