Everyone has to remember that Misha mostly drives left hand sided cars with manuals. The fact he is able to drive a short shifter with an unknown car, which is right hand drive, on the Nurburgring for the first time with that car is amazing, so don't give Misha any hate. Think if it was you sitting in that seat. I don't think many people will be able to do that for the first time on a race track.

Also, he is driving someone's private baby. At least to me it seems like he is often holding back a 5-10% out of respect, even when he's fast. He's not aiming for a lap record after all. Although I'm sure there are several who tell him to just send it :P

These mis-shifts are more dangerous than the gr yaris 😂First time that I enjoyed the speedcam dropping cause then we could see you shifting. Still, really nice video and gorgeous engine bay! Shifts were like a motorbike, first gear never ends, then the rest are 30-40 km/h increments each. Loved it cause you had to shift so much due to short gearing and ofc for the heel and toe action

Truly sympathise with the miss shifts. I have owned an S2000 for 7 years and it can happen if you aren’t used to it or even have a break in concentration just for a second when shifting. In my opinion you didn’t look like you enjoyed your lap at all which is a real shame as I have been waiting for years to see you drive it and see your impression of the car. I’d love for you to drive another one, get well acquainted with the shifts and take the car to redline every time. It really makes a difference with these high revving engines. I won’t be satisfied until I see you review another one with a big grin from ear to ear coz that’s what the s2000 is all about. Thanks for the vid and can’t wait to see another vid with one 👍🏻

Hi. Your channel gets more and more exciting for me. This amazing trackday Golf II and now this Honda S2000. My heart beats more for this kind of cars. Old school with manual gear change. The Honda S2000 here looks very nice. You are an amazing driver, Misha :)

I actually really enjoyed when the owner picked up the gopro and held it giving the full actual view of the driving position and motions, looks good!!

Love seeing Misha driving the s2000. I was able to buy one this past summer and they are so amazing to drive, what an awesome build this guy has though!

As a s2k owner. Missing 3rd is better then money shift into 1st.. 🤪. The spacing on the gears are very close. . Car is setup nice. Ap1 have no traction control, no nannies to save you.

amazing sound, love this V-Tec´s !

I had an s2000 and do not feel bad. Trying to heal-toe it into 3rd took some time. I will go into 5the gear my first couple of weeks. It wasn't the fastest car i'v driven, but it was as good as a go-cart. Fun under control all day long. Donuts in the parking lot and cutting corners at 7000rpm on the road. Wish I still have it.

Nice misha! Right hand drive is a good excuse for the miss shifts 😂😂 but you still had a smooth and fast lap and felt the characteristics of car i really enjoyed it thanks.

All the carbon parts are looking awesome on this thing

As a former S2000 owner it is good to see you finally get a chance to take one for a lap around the Ring! Nice video Misha!

Love the S2000. My mate had one a few years back. Sound so good at 9 thousand. Wicked video.

Man that s2000 is so clean, and well built, plus all good brands, my type of car......

Love ur channel misha! Such a good thing every day another car on the best racetrack in the world ❤

MAN that car is amazing, the sound, the looks, so RAW my god!!

Sweet build. Interesting parts choices with the BC Racing ZRs and K-Sport front BBK, not parts commonly seen on a relatively high dollar build, but they seem to do the job!

Amazing car, great cameras, great video, and great video! Im glad to see you enjoy your car. My advice is to keep your left foot off the brake before heal-to downshifting. The S2k (F20C or K series engines) rev up and quick, let your right foot do the braking and left foot on the clutch. Hope you have many more fun laps!

Gorgeous K-swapped S2k with some exquisite mods🤌🔥 car was flying!

nice to see another build that focuses on the drive

Great car and super-chill owner. Love it!

That engine bay is magnificent, very clean.

Great car, great track, great driver!

when I saw title I totally knew what was going on, now I finally have a proof it is not just me throwing in 5th instead of 3rd gear on tracks, Grobnik CRO straight (since you know the track ). I miss shifted this car like crazy, also have RHD s2k only car in RHD in my fleet, it has so short throw that everytime you release clutch you are in fear of misshift :D ... I solve my problem with buying Quaife sequntial gearbox LOL - so hopefully now no more miss shifts :D ... nice video nice s2k 👍

Loved the S2000 sicne the F&F days, such a sweet looking car.

Honestly when I’ve driven S2000 I’ve mis shifted every time - there is something about the gear change which coming from an MX5 background is rather unusual and is something a short shifter exacerbates. It almost feels like a binding from gear to gear and this combined with the high strung engine makes for a stressful driving experience but you handled it very well Misha! All S2000s seem to be praised for their shift when casual road driving by car journalists but after any intensity is added it can be a real inconvenience..

@LoveLikeaHurricane

Жыл бұрын

It needs to be pushed with light force, and allowed for the shifter to just drop in. Can't "throw it" into the gear. Therefore if you shift fast and tend to just let the clutch foot out with what you think is the proper rhythm, it may happen. You have to treat it with mechanical sympathy and take .5 sec more into each gear to get it to "drop" in.

Cool to see how you improved during the lap. It‘s definitely not an easy car to master instantly, takes some time to really get the full potential out of it. A less understeering setup would suit the car better if you are fast at the steering

Amazing S2k with rusty patina. One of the best feeling gerarbox shifter in the World 😀 every misshift i feel aaahhhh. Maybe you show us one Day an Stock + lhd AP1 and DC5 and NSX🙏😁

Sounds great, also a good looking car!

All that lifting made You lose the feel for shifting 🤣 I'm surprised You didn't go for another lap once You got the hang of the shifter... The speedo cam falling off was a blessing in disguise 😁 oh and the car looks and sounds absolutely lovely!

This engine is perfect, because honestly, the F20C is not really a pleasure to daily drive (still good for any highway toll outlet). K24/K20hd is perfect.

Good old K series Frankenstein build. :) K24 bottom, K20 head. Good choice.

Love some high RPM NA power. Looks like a very fun car for the 'Ring.

That’s a weapon! I love it! ❤️

You would master that shifter with time. Even though it was painful to watch it's no biggie :). Really liked the car though. Those older high reving engines is something I truly miss from todays low reving cars.

Wow, that thing flies, but Misha is correct, the handling is perfect! Never loses rear end grip when the AMG HAMMER motor is screaming!

Lovely s2000, at 2.03 I noticed quite a lot of rust on the wheelarch.

What a nice track weapon Misha...bet that was a blast!

owned a s2k back in 2002 :-) and an EP3 in 2004 memories rise up

I've miss-shifted a few times when I got mine, so don't feel too bad, at least those weren't money shifts!

You guys freaked me out. I thought there was a Money shift in there. When driving a right hand drive manual for the first time in New Zealand, I grabbed the door handle TWICE when coming to a stop. Never regretted renting a manual econo car. Man that was fun on New Zealand roads. Never had to downshift to 1st in a car in my life but I had to do it there for some steep mountain sections. Man I would love to go back to rent a forced induction car there.

Having a foot cam to watch the rev matching, takes this vid to the next level!!

Dream car. Love it. Surprises me how well the AR1's are doing on a lighter car.? I've heard they are better on heavier cars.

love the Honda and the drivings skills are super of this man...☢☢☢

Let them hate, who cares! And when it comes to your driver excuse(s) I think there is only one that applies to all of your videos and that people really miss that one or do not comprehend it. In majority of your videos, you basically take cars that you have never driven before and you push them hard through the Ring, most people have problems with driving a new car for the first time in normal street conditions, and here you do the exact opposite without issues or some small issues, this goes to show who is the boss driver!
