It’s genuinely fun watching Jimmy develop a car like this. I know it probably feels crappy to have constant hurdles come up like this, but this is kind of what developing a car is all about, and I’m happy for Jimmy that he gets to.
2:25 In this shot we can admire how any potential passengers also get to experience the newest safety standards with their seating situation
Bitches be like "I need an SUV so I can have leg room". Bitch, where we're going we don't need leg room.
That seat is a loop hole in the UKTA regulations. The class Minty runs in requires you to have a passenger seat. But they don't specify what kind of seat it has to be. So people started putting carbon fibre and fibreglass go kart seats in the car to fulfil the regulation.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Big ol gaping hole waiting for a diffuser. Keep working at it boys! It's already looking to be such an amazing project!
Minty is slowly looking more and more like the hill climb special cars in BeamNG Drive
it kinda reminds me of the eSRB with the big aero on it
Or just hill-climb specials IRL.
Minty has evolved well past that stage in terms of chassis changes. Minty would be more like a custom mod in Beam😂
I made minty in automation a few months ago, needs some updates to get back in line with where the car is now so I'll be doing that soon and if I remember I'll stick it on steam workshop and probably put a link to it here and on discord
@@joemiller4178 including the interior?
Jimmy you're really living the Gran Turismo life now! Upgrading your cars, testing them on track, so happy for you to be able to live this experience and share it with us!!
Looking good! Shame about the engine issues, but that's car development for you. Needs the rest of the aero kit on it 😉
9:42 “Already pretty much full stiff on the front end” 😂😂 Aayyooo!!! Phrasing 😂🤣😂. But all kidding aside awesome to see the aero updates! Keep making your dreams come true Jimmy! You your fans got your back!
I love how the outro video now is just all of this incredible stuff you've been doing in real life. It's a shame about the motor but it's awesome to see aero on the car now! Can't wait to see what's next once the motor is fixed.
I was just about to say the same about the outro video. Jimmer is constantly adding amazing chapters to his autobiography and we're lucky to be along for the ride.
Can't help but admire how amazing the turbo sounds! 0:00
Right? That was such a cool sound
I was not ready for that much Chef Ainsley
So we're only three seconds or so off Chris Hall's lap record set in a Radical and about a second faster than Warren Fallow's Pork 911 GT3? Minty be freakin rapid considering Jimmy wasn't really pushing her. Fingers crossed the repair is quick, can hardly wait to see how Jimmy goes against the other monsters in time attack.
i love how it sounds close to under suzuki's s15 aswell. true time attack cars here
HE finally can put a WANG on this! good thing it happened during practice. good luck Jimmer in creating the ultimate Mint
Just enjoying getting to see the process. Hardly any channels cover the development of an entirely new racing car. Keep it up!!
Needs a big diffuser for the big wang
Jimmy i really love how you went from a shed with a wheel to being on the track and following your passion for fast cars and turns. I love your chill attitude and character keep up the good vids and hope you will make it to the top
Race it, brake it, fix it, race it again. Thats the way it goes for pretty much everyone building racecars. Keep your heads down, and crack on 🤘🤘
I am so happy for the Man. Watched him for many years. It is great to see his journey started with commenting driving in sims and now he comments driving in real racing cars on real tracks.
Great fun to watch! Thanks for bringing us along for the ride Jimmer!
created a monster here man, what a machiiiiine
Oh the sounds, they are so so beautiful.
original gran turismo music at 0:40 was classy
I love seeing how happy you are with Minty. The thing I enjoy most is your joy in driving..
This thing is visceral from inside the cockpit - love it!!!
9:43 i was also full stiff on my front end
The way minty looks makes me want an IRL Pikes Peak climb. Good shit jimmer.
Nice to see another minty video keep up the great videos Jimmer
keep it up Jimmy building a race car as you said is a process. yall got this, good luck from the east coast usa!
I feel you. I've had nothing but mechanical issues all race season this year, it does get better though
Love it every time we get to see Gav. Banger videos Jimmer.
Love the RL stuff vids @jimmer , alone or with the boys in green hell, keep it up!
loving the onboard footage now, way better than that over the right shoulder praga couldn't see anything.. now!! AMAZING. Night and day, progress is progress man!!! amazing stuff.. seeing you fight the car in a whole new way means = NEW ANIMAL ... minty = it's a bit of an animal..
Minty is moving now! Looks sick with that aero. Jimmy if the car only cuts going into 4th, could it be the ignition cut for the sequential shifter? Almost like its cutting for just a tad to long? Not an expert by no means but just my 2 cents wortrh lol. Enjoying this, cant wait to see Minty running proper
This mthrfkr will a rocket ship when it gets the kinks worked out of it ! GL Jimmer & have fun !
Ooof. I feel ya Jimmy. I race RCs and I broke one of my cars pretty badly this weekend by smacking a pole on the catch fence in front of the pit lane. Minty looks pretty scary with that aero on there.
Aero looks really mean. Can't wait to see the things Minty can do after the issues are ironed out!
Now me and the mad scientist gotta pull apart the block to replace the piston rings you fried.
You should really look into replacing that BP at some point, those engines are basically made as cheap econobox things and they really don't like making much power for long periods of time. You could look into a cheap alu honda block as those can take a fair bit of boost while being way ligther than the BP could dream of being. Also whatever ECU you're using probably has some sort of auto-blip functionality which would make your life on downshifts a bit easier.
Whatever you decide to do in the future definitely consider a dry sump if you haven't already. You push that downforce any further and you'll have so much cornering grip the engine will starve of oil and kill itself in no time.
Oh, and now that I've reached near the end of the video you should probably duct air from the radiator to the bonnet outlet with something to help keep engine bay temperatures under control a bit better.
Vid good as always, love seeing the minty get some track time and doubly so as there's not much content like this on RUclips. Hopefully your TT goes well if you can make it.
A K-swap is definitely a great idea. The engine is lighter, more reliable and pretty easy to swap in as there's kits available.
0:09 PHINS UP 🐬
Great video. Hoping its just ignition issues but I suspect its a bit more! Good call on the damper settings. We want more shots of the pro-crew at work 😊
Damn dude, you did wanna find the limit of the car with those tweaks, sounds like you might be bumping up at it! Keep at it Jimmy, this car looks like it's gonna be a hillclimb monster in no time hahah see you at pike's peak?!
Love this so so much, Minty is looking like a real racing car now!❤❤
It was great to see you again jimmy!
What you’ve done to the car is so bad ass!
That wing game is STRONG
Jimmy you inspired me to get into Sim Racing. So purchased ACC and a G29 True force and 6 speed transmission. Im super pumped. Bummer about Bathurst being a locked track ss im in New Zealand and love that track to race on. And BeamNG
earing that gt2 music got me so happy , it's like that sng that brings me back to being a kid lool
Great to see all the development, testing, highs and lows that go into getting a racing car ready. Worlds away from the simulators!
Holy shiiiit 😮 its getting there, shame about the problems but I'm so excited 😊❤
Love you Jimmer
Great video Jimmy 👍 sorry to see the engine issue, I've had plenty of issues with turbo mx5 engines over the last few years 😮💨 I've also got the exact same hesitation/ cutting that you've got and my car was also set up by M-Tech. If you or M-Tech find out what's causing it, please can you let us know in a future video 🙏 I've replaced so many parts trying to locate and fix it 🤣🤦
By far the best helmet cam placement I've ever seen! You could sim race at that angle
It wouldn't be a race car if it wasn't 2 steps forward 1 step back. The session up until that point was looking very promising. I bet it felt amazing to feel the improvements and get results.
Was anyone else somewhat hypnotised by his nose 👃 on the reflection at the top of the helmet cam shot. Once you see it, you can't unsee it. 😅
I don't know what kind of helmet camera you had but it was great!
This man is dropping awesome content atm
What an awesome project this has become! Minty is a beast!
The problem with the cut off, could it have to do something with that quickshifter? Heared about some issues like that in my motocycle group. You could turn it off and drive with clutch once to test it. Anyway, good luck in getting this engine back into racing shape
The GoPro mount was probably a bit loose from the start because there was *a lot of shaking* in the video. That could be explained with a bit too loose mount.
So the R1 is coming to Brands? (With a little plastic seat)
As annoying as having to plug merch every video, it works. I forgot to order a minty shirt last video.. cashed up this week so we've ordered a shirt. Onya team. Love watching you play race cars for real life. Well deserved jimmer!
awesome video.. the helmet cam it feels as if im being jimmy driving the thing.. i feel connected to him living the dream
and his thoughts when he is driving.. its awesome
What song do you use at the end of your video?
It would be so cool if you took minty to the Nurburgring.
At 7:01 just after Jimmer says "we have aero, oh my god" a bird flys over the front of the car haha wat
This gotta be one of the sickest miata's on the internet 👌
this thing would be such a fucking blast to drive holyyyyyy. absolute mental thing you've built
So an improved splitter and the diffusor next?
If you took the Engine straight to the engine builder id bet hed have it rebuilt in 1 or 2 days that would leave 2 or 3 to put it back in . Weve assembled whole cars in 5 days before a rally 😅
I wanna know what kind of sr you using it
If you're looking into actually doing the in-car live narration, you might want to look into how Motorcycle Vloggers have their mics set up. Those guys get very good audio quality even with loud pipes. Admittedly, probably not as loud as minty, but I'd say it's worth testing
Does Snetterton bring you more joy now? It's my favourite UK track!
Possibly hitting a MAP limit cause it overboosts on the shift into 4th? Possibly also what's then ended up hurting the engine. Would love a cheeky look at the logs and the map. Hopefully its back up and running quickly
Use a k series man, they make way more power reliably.
Why doesn't it have a diffuser and bumper?
It's really interesting to see the struggles of building what was essentially a shitbox into a fully fledged time attack monster. All comes with its challenges like as we've seen but when it works, what a machine!
"rapid" is a great descriptor for Mint. Looks way faster even through the camera
Really did enjoy the video, Jim. Worry ye not.
It's a big difference between sim and real life, innit 🙂
On the sim you bung in the HP, slap on da wangs, and then tweak it. Nothing breaks.
In RL every fucking thing breaks 😂
Awesome car, awesome driver, love the commitment to an extreme MX5, bring it
dudeeeee minty is a fast boi now
Always rember: Cars are pain, but we love 'em.
Also, i dont know what head gaskets you're running with for all that extra boost, or maybe the head bolts, but maybe try some stronger/heavier duty ones as well as a bigger cooling vent or something like that. Just my thoughts on the issue, but you trust your instincts and good luck with the project!
that car sound sooo good
Drivetribe may shortly have an MX5 V10. Collab the eff out of it, if it works. You'll have the kit, they'll have a ridiculous amount of grunt. Sounds like a match made in....... errr Japan.
i'd love to see Minty as an AC mod someday
Time to compression check Jimmer!!
Bloody hell minty sounds good, jeez
idk if this is crazy but could you maybe put trumpets on the miata? (like on the diablo race car) that would be insane
It's definitely down a hole. My money is on headgasket. No compression on one cylinder, pressurized TF out of the oil system too. You could hear it when cranking, one cylinder has zero or close to zero compression left. The cutting out behaves like boost safety. Boost creep is more prevalent in high gears and may have taken the headgasket out with too much boost.
Please find a way to bring this to Pike's Peak
Goodwood FOS or bust!
If the car keeps over heating you might need to switch to one of those fancy rear mounted radiators that brings in air through the top of the boot lid
No one is running them on the fast mx5 track cars, I don't think they work very well aerodynamically. Not to mention the lack of rear space lol...
Can't wait for Misha taking Jimmy and Minty for a round on the Nürburgring
Praga backup car again? Now that's a car I would love to see barrel around brands hatch.
Jimmy don't need no aero. He just needs a cute miata.
Show us that helmetcam set up👌
Man does that thing sound like a weapon now.
Time to get all the sensors and safetys fitted. EGT/ coolant pressure / fuel pressure / oil etc .....
sounded like chain slip to me? timing out?
I like how they have a big sign on the archway saying "Snetterton", just in case you forget where TF you are.
For real though, keep doing what you're doing - one step at a time, positive trajectory, realistic goals and all that - you'll get there and absolutely smash it :D What you're doing is very, very cool :)
minty NEEDS an underwing!! just as wide as the front splitter going all of the way down the car with big ole venturis and diffuser. look at the indycar underwings for design ideas
When is minty going to get that bottom end filled in at the back? Looks incomplete under the rear wing. A nice functioning diffuser would make it look complete.
Gee, I wonder if the engine cutting out all the time was related. Gezus.
Minty looking mint.
