VTEC SEND! Civic Type R SINGING on the Nürburgring!

[@Seanmbtg]

Thanks again misha 👍

[@mgcharoudin]

The lap was amazing, saw you booked Circuitdays track day, let's try to go for one more!

[@billg26]

You're an excellent driver man! It was a joy to watch! ;)

[@GIZZMOTORSPORTS]

awesome build. I missed it, what times does it run there?

[@Seanmbtg]

@@mgcharoudin I look forward to it

[@stevejones224]

Good confident lap fair play fella 👏

[@Buck3366]

At first I thought aww Mishas not driving but MAN this guy can fly! Really impressive run mate.

[@mgcharoudin]

Dude's a fckn weapon!

[@jouhajohnny]

Yeahh

[@TamagoHead]

It’s so cool that he keeps his motor simple with bolt-on tuning & used the savings on suspension, tyres, brakes & safety.👍

[@Bagger1978]

@@TamagoHead like he said in the video, if you keep it simple it's usually much cheaper if you blow it up and you are more like to ring its neck like it was ment to be.

[@TamagoHead]

@@Bagger1978 👍Ageed! Oil & coolant leak aside, it’s a great philosophy, imho! Cheap motor, fast car, great driver = sweet. Very impressive for FWD w/260hp!

[@iceb-akap77ice93]

The sound of the V-Tec is so good. And he's got the skills with his feet. Really enjoyed that lap. Nice one

[@Buck3366]

Side note. Love the prof pic. David Kessler American Werewolf in London. Classic film 👍

[@italianpetrolhead]

VTEC per dio!

[@Buck3366]

All wrong. It’s i-VTEC in that model. Thank you and goodnight

[@mwrscs1]

That smile on your face made me smile the entire time. What a ride along!

[@DasArab]

Very smooth driver!!!! And proof you don't need 550bhp to go fast at the Ring!

[@GODZILLA1521]

And a 3rd of the price. Or less..

[@MisterPetrolhead]

If i had to guess the amount of BHP based on just the video I would say 400. This car is quick with 260.

[@DasArab]

@@MisterPetrolhead And its quick because its sub 1200kg.

[@quino5166]

one of the best videos ive watched in my lifetime... The noise and handling of that EP3 is crazy! Well driven as well i must say.

[@ShifterDrifter]

5:16 - Expressions on Misha's face during this lap are priceless😄

[@Dajirushi]

Like a kid at playground 😂

[@Little_Alesi]

So elegant habe ich Zwischengas lange nicht mehr gesehen, was für eine unglaublich elegante, unaufgeregte Runde. Das Auto ist der Hammer

[@user-jt6nw6wm5q]

Super smooth footwork! Very nice and balanced drive man! Hats off

[@demetris92]

So nice that u hold back on uploading this epic ones instantly so we have some in the offseason :)

[@mgcharoudin]

Glad you appreciate it!

[@Chris_the_Dickens]

What a fantastic lap, sounded incredible and some very impressive footwork!

[@ConCBis]

Very impressive heal&toe from Sean! A fast and well driven FWD somehow really gets me. Great car, astonishing driver, very enjoyable to watch. Thanks

[@esco1578]

This guy is a serious!! Amazing to watch

[@leedave9314]

Was in an old ek9 I think it was getting a lift from him and his mate after a rough night, and I’ve honestly never been so scared and impressed in my life😂🤣

[@princelulu332]

Misha smiling while enjoying the passenger princess treatment

[@dreazi2018]

driver have a skills , this man dont talk this man send it too hard i love this man !!!!

[@dylanmonahan5909]

Reminds me a lot of my old EF8 CR-X, or moreso what it could've been had I kept working on it. You can definitely see how the larger bottom end helps keep him in the zone, and acceleration especially up above 160kmph is clearly improved over an NA b16. Excellent driving! Could easily have pushed harder without traffic, but it was good to see such sportsmanship on the track. Cheers

[@MiColorPodcast]

That's great fkin balance and enough power, the low noise in the cockpit say a lot of the the amazing work of the chasis, that car is look like a BTCC of 2002-2003

[@AstraBen22]

Fantastic car Sean and my word can you drive! you really are dialed in with it. You can see that Misha is quietly impressed and loving life throughout that lap :).

[@Fish66666]

Awsum vid, seen the reg and had to look twice. I owned this car many years ago was completely stock even took it to Nurburgring myself in 2014, was gutted when had to sell it too a good friend who also did another trip to Germany in it. Great to see it’s still going and is now a full on track car. Great driving aswell 👌

[@Crippler.]

@martindemo7

[@Inki288]

Nice one Misha/Sean. I always have a bigger smile on my face when watching the smaller engine cars with a good setup, and driven really well. These are the best vids. Thank you.🤘

[@gabrielpaster]

I was smiling while watching this because of how stunning the lap was and the sound is fckn amazing. Great car and great vid thanks misha

[@jk_46]

Misha seemed to have enjoyed this run very very much!! That smile near the end says everything!

[@djpollo2474]

Yessss, as an ep3 civic si owner this makes me excited for the future of my car! Hopefully I will either k20a2 swap or k24/20 swap!

[@ProjectVastness]

🚀 🤣🤣🤣 that corners at high speed , the tires screaming .... Your smile. Priceless xD !!! awesome driver also.

[@isdos]

One of the best laps of the year for sure. That screaming vtec, putting it to the limit and barely traffic at all(apart from the yellows on the end). Kudos to the driver, very impressive footwork too.

[@arndtenhagen-krabbe5554]

Very good, the hole lap, his skills about driving, top! And a nice car, now everybody should why those car are more then 10 year a benchmark in VLN.

[@Crippler.]

I'm loving the videos of 'boy racers' taking their builds to the ragged edge on the ring. Quality content Misha. Big respect to the owner who has balls of tungsten 🤙

[@markmcgrath9098]

Epic run. So enjoyable to watch. Thank you both for putting this up. It’s pretty cool when you can see the passenger trusts the driver enough to sit back, chill and enjoy the ride. EP3 has to be peak Civic Type R surely.

[@alexanderm6862]

Oh lovely k series, one of the best sounding engines!

[@sergiodifranco4380]

What an amazing driver/machine blend! Congrats

[@TheMeanmarine13]

210 kph around curves 😳 ftw! That's some spirited driving! Love it, great lap gents 👏 👍

[@alistairl]

Great to hear the V-Tec, a colleague of mine had a Civic in the late 90s and I remember the noise - awesome. He used it to introduce me to lift-off oversteer - unfortunately stolen from Glasgow. Hopefully they are less desirable now and Sean holds on to his. Would have loved another camera on the rev counter to reminisce!

[@Mark-nu3ej]

Wow, that was fantastic, smooth driving! Well done!!!👍👍🔥🔥

[@martybelfastsri]

cracking lap sounds well on full song!

[@TheGeekWarrior]

I love this channel... Don't know too much about cars outside of video games, but this looked like a really smooth relaxed lap, yet fast at the same time..mrespect dude

[@raullasvegas]

Awesome driver with an awesome car. That thing is amazing! Such an exciting lap. The sound, the speed. Thank you for sharing.

[@SamuelCroin]

Front wheels are glued to the track ! Very quick car&driver .

[@dominolehmann8227]

I had the EP3 twice..even a Swiss version with some lsd. Just loved them. Low costs, much fun and very reliable

[@tunes4life]

The smile from within,on your face Misha,says it all! That Civic Type R, IS the true pocket rocket!

[@endasthenrik516]

Wow....Why are some laps so mesmerizing?!

[@BrattyBiker]

Just phenomenal!

[@Stallzyx]

Such a great lap. That car is setup so nice and the drive was great

[@SuperWhiteBarry]

WOW. Great setup, I love the car. Great driving as well!

[@barp2086]

Excelente vuelta: buen manejo, piloto muy concentrado, conoce bien su auto, todos los cambios hacia adelante y atrás los hizo bien, no erró ninguna curva.. y lo más importante es que le sacó su sonrisa a Misha en casi toda la vuelta.. felicitaciones por el onboard.

[@DivideBYZero69]

Searching for that lamp post @9:07 always gets my adrenalin up! I need to do more laps to get confident through there.

[@ltg8382]

Probably one of the most FUN cars i've seen on this channel.

[@tommyvlogssimz4274]

[@zf8496]

I really enjoy watching this LAP! this guy knows how to drive well done!

[@beaugator]

Nice! I wish my old '05 Acura RSX Type S autocrosser had ran that good! V-Tec memories.

[@scoc253]

that type-r platform hugs those corners really really good. 💯👌🏽👏🏽

[@rahulsudhir666]

Absolutely love the way the VTecs sound when forced induction isn't introduced as a mod. Big bore kit with necessary supportin mods n good headers n exhaust makes them sound so alive n old school motorsport-like. Add velocity stacks n it's literally cherry on the cake! 300-350bhp in a tiny light weight car can be so much fun.

[@billg26]

Fantastic car and fantastic driver! An absolute joy to watch! You need to experience Toyota's "VTEC" Misha! In Toyota, they call it VVTL-i and it is a very nice NA engine too! The 2ZZ-GE engine from Toyota is on the 7th generation Celica , the T-Sport variant and on the Corolla T-Sport of the same time period ;) My dream would be to drive mine from Portugal to the Nurburgring , do some TF laps and head south again! If I go there I will definetely let you drive my car (Celica T-Sport with a few minor mods)! ;)

[@konholio2]

The Honda related content is highly appreciated. Cheers!

[@meppie1922]

Man back in my younger days friends of mine also had this V-tec engines, they are the best! Sound is great and the power just hits different with these engines. Great car man!

Awesome drive and a really badass car dude! VTEC at its best 👏🏻 Misha’s smiles are priceless😂

[@adriantse2405]

perfect way to show everyone you don't need big money to enjoy the track. Great drive @Seanmep3 !!

[@averagepal572]

I think the reason for the smiles is that it's the perfect balance of power, weight, grip and pure rawness. A lot of cars nowadays are overpowered and too luxurious so feel sanitised.

[@MX304]

He sprung for the driver mod. What a killer car / driver combo. Love it.

[@Firstneko1]

Man, that car has great balance and grip. Amazing driver as well.

Misha's face the entire lap....but his face a few seconds after 8:00 when dude is just HAMMERING it through that corner and the tires are absolutely screaming for someone to put them out of their misery and the damn egg is damn near sideways 🤣

[@kdark54]

Thank you for the footwell angle! Interesting to see how it works, but I could never 😂

[@hornet9192]

its so nice to see Misha sitting as a passenger in a V-Tec performed car . His facial features are funny

I love EP3's! This is one here is really awesome
