How on earth does this have less than 100 views? Your videos are absolute quality! Well done sir!

[@BradleyGibbs]

Well, the mixing certainly doesn't help

[@SuperBakura]

Also it's alleged the FL5 had cooling upgrades, shorter final drive or 6th gear and more power than stock due to more boost pressure.

Just found you out of the blue and watched 2 videos. Top notch production quality and research, hope you grow well. Earned my sub.

[@JGA347]

Definitely a hidden gem.

Great video, just found this channel. I’d just like to echo what someone else mentioned, it is a bit difficult to hear your voice with the background music. Other than that, great video, can’t wait to see what you make in the coming months and years.

I am shocked this only has 800 views

[@fathertimegaming17]

SHOCKING!

[@EastsideBodega_]

I will continue to say it. The modern performance auto industry, specifically Porsche fans owe almost everything to the 07 Nissan GT-R

[@SAVING_ICONIC_MACHINES]

Amazing video mate well done. Keep up the great content ❤

[@SpecMDriven]

Thank you again. I had fun making this one. More coming soon!

[@adamcameron9029]

I remember raising em eyebrow when Lamborghini claimed the Huracan Perf set the record, ousting the 918…..I’m still skeptical. Great video man!

[@SpecMDriven]

Agreed, I share the same skepticism about the Perf haha

[@akossz1575]

Fantastic videos, you deserve way more subscribers. I only have 1 feedback: sometimes narration can be difficult to hear to music or other background noises (engine, exhaust etc...)

[@SpecMDriven]

Thanks for the support! I genuinely value the feedback and absolutely agree about the voiceover and video track volumes. Expect to see a great improvement in my next projects.

[@akossz1575]

@@SpecMDriven I will be on the lookout.

Music to load...

[@benhodkinson6467]

Overarching … not overreaching. And you pronunciation of the NUR BERG RING sounds like new burg ring but with a strange rhythm. Very curious. Otherwise, good subject and lovely visuals! was that gt7 footage at the end?

[@WestiePaul]

Thank you ever so much for the insight .... Paul ✌️

[@kslemonade6971]

Looks like you made a mistake in the stats of the Honda

Thank you. New one coming soon!

Bruh, someone who has the money to be able to afford an R35 GTR doesn't care how they did it. They care a out the fact that they can make the same modifications to their to achieve such a laptime with that specific car. It's taking an F1 car around nordchleife with a full downforce rear wing, and then the same F1 car going around the traxk with a trimmed down rear wing. The fact ia it's still an F1 car. If I had an F1 car, I have the ability to choose from 2 different rear wings which will give me better or worse laptimes.

[@user-ne3rb8ps8j]

Was the music from NFS 4?

[@SpecMDriven]

@@user-ne3rb8ps8j Hi! This video includes music from NFS2 and NFS 3 Hot Pursuit

[@oxcart4172]

Absolutely epic!

[@mvm932]

If youre going to put some stats on the screen, give us a inute to read thrm before taking them down. Im a ridiculously fast reader but i couldnt read more than a couple words before you pulled the stats down ((around 4:30 for reference).

[@frisoderidder6957]

pause ready

[@iunnox666]

"Dunlope"?

[@benhodkinson6467]

Hah!
