    I think this is the 5th video of the Pinderwagen Misha has shared on his channel!
    Delving into the comments on RUclips can be a humbling experience and I would like to say THANK YOU for all the appreciation you guys show for the Golf.
    It's been a long project with a lot of highs and a few lows but to end up here is extremely satisfying.
    I've often had comments saying "why not just buy a better car to start with?"
    But that's missing 2 important points, first, this has been built over a decade and a half, as I saved up enough money I could move onto the next stage. Like most hobbies, this was done in my spare time as funds and time became available. I've had comments that I could buy a Porsche or M2 for what I've spent, you couldn't, nowhere near. Obviously if you had to pay someone else for their labour that's different, but who puts a cost on their hobby that they like doing for themselves?
    Secondly, I really enjoy it. This is what I do for fun. Buying a car already built just doesn't give the same satisfaction. I've learned a huge amount during this build, things I'd never know if I just bought a car off the shelf.
    It's far more satisfying to me to to drive a MK2 Golf sub 7:30 BTG that you've built yourself from the ground up than jumping in a Cayman or similar and doing it straight away.
    The gearbox was an uprated one in 2020, a full Quaife semi helical strengthened gearset.
    Sadly it isn't up to the job and over the winter of 2022 / 2023 I've swapped from the 02J to a full SQS 02Q Dog Box which is far stronger.
    The drivers adjustable seat rails have too much play which I hadn't realised until I saw the incar video, they are being removed.
    Once again, thank you to Misha for sharing this video and for all the positive comments about the Golf 🙂
    /just to add, before anyone mentions Bobas Golf. That's a drag car, not a track car. On the drag strip, he'd annihilate me, on the Nurburgring I'd be significantly faster 😉/
    /overtaking is allowed on either side as this was a Destination Nurburgring Ringmeisters trackday. They are low numbers trackdays where overtaking on either side is allowed. 👍🏻/

      Your car is absolute gem and you are legend, sir. Making such amazing car as your hobby from your own funds is feat on it´s own. I really hope you will be doing well and we will see many more videos. Those older cars are much more entertaining than some modern cars like you described, off the shelf. They are much more brutal, raw, and you can see the time and sweat you have put into it.

    • @LukeRainbird
      @LukeRainbird Год назад +5

      Methodical, logical, progressive builds for the win. Not everybody can/wants to go down the same route, but huge respect for everyone who does.
      Very quick, clean lap, particularly given the lack of 5th Nige 👌

  • @Sean_Farmer
    @Sean_Farmer Год назад +504

    These are the types of cars I love to see on your channel. The GT3 and 2RS cars are still amazing, but the rawness and emotion these built cars deliver are on another level IMO. It's not just about the speed but the way the car makes you feel that really brings enjoyment.

      VWs of that vintage are PANZERS!! I had a Jetta mkIII and in an accident where I damaged 3 cars in front of me (don’t ask, long hours and not enough sleep are deadly) pretty badly I only spent $250 or so at the frame shop and all the parts you’d expect in front of the engine (mainly cooling system) and the thing was brand new…

    • @dougrippe33
      @dougrippe33 Год назад +1

      The concentration to stay out of 5th gear with that many up/down shifts is impressive as well. He’s getting every ounce of power and capability out of that car, absolute masterclass!!!

      Exactly. That was just as impressive as the lap as a whole and the speed of the car.. Not one mis-shift that I saw and that 4th to 6th change and back down again happened a lot.

    • @pinderwagen

    Wow, what a thrilling run, one of the best I've seen, felt like I was there minus the g-forces.... Supercars maybe faster, but somehow they don't deliver the same rawness as these modded semi-racing hatchbacks. 400 Kph on a Bugatti is a bore compared to 220 Kph in this beast, balls out into the esses. Superb driving and seemingly perfect racing line.... fabulous indeed, thanks so much for letting us dream!!

  • @MatSpeedle

    I had a 91 GTI with a 99 VR6swap big turbo. I can't believe how fast I drove that car with no aero or brake upgrades, I ditched the police every time at least 25 times plus. These cars are so so fun. I drive a 2016 VW GLI now and dearly miss my Mk2s and Mk4s, new stuff just isn't the same!

    This was fantastic. Do I remember this from your channel before? This takes me back to my youth - the nearest I got was building a Mk2 Golf GTi model kit by Revell. I love seeing how far you can take front wheel drive - like the Cupra. Hats off to his development path - power as a last resort 🙂
