"Oversteer is when the passenger is scared. Understeer is when the driver is scared"
Jens is a gigachad, lmao
But its almoust from Röhrl😉
No protection bars ez
It's true!!!
ya man, or park?? Randomly going into park would be a nightmare ride home.
Sometimes it's scary to realize what your car can actually do
yeah. knowing how my mom drives im a lil scared for her sometimes in her corolla lol. that thing can move
@@observantmonkey4055 people sleep on Corollas. They’re commuters so they always have like super low end tq, but the 2019 Corolla S with paddles can rev it out and start moving
@@pitsa9838 remember the Initial D car is a Corolla XD
Yeah Misha driving my Forester STI was kinda shocking. He actually drove the same speeds as he was doing with this RS7 if I compare some points on the track which is crazy to me :)
💯
I totally sympathise with the guy. First time I was on a track with a professional it was in a nothing more than a standard 330i with three other guys in the car and I was still absolutely terrified. It's a system shock for the uninitiated.
Yes ... since then I know they were not joking on Top Gear with The Stig being a tamed race car driver. Because they really are savages, lol.
@@stoneeh Was driven around in a 720s. I was not as stressed as pictured here. Guess I had more confidence in the car: nearly half the weight and lower to the ground. I also wouldn´t feel well with 2,5 tons floating around that track.
@@MrThrustSSC I can see this definitely being the case because in my 3300 lbs car i feel very safe on the track but I've also been in a Durango hellcat around the same track and thought i was going to die
I went to a Porsche Experience this fall, and took a ride in a Panamera Sport Turismo Turbo S driven by one of their professionals. Safe to save I was pleasantly surprised by what that huge car was actually capable of.
The grip levels are beyond imagination in a great car but the braking force is what gets you
Dude probably had an higher heartrate than Misha all lap. Can't blame him knowing the price and likely emotional price of this RS7. But if you've asked Misha, you might think you'd trust him driving haha
Car feels 2x faster when you're in passenger seat 🙂
Probably? Dude almost died 😆
In the next video.... Passenger has heart attack while driving slow on nurburgring 😂👌🏼
Indeed, he might had been worried about the gearbox. Not Misha
i dont think so he scared because of Totaling RS7
Easy to laugh at his reaction but most people have never been in a 600hp car let alone being driven by Misha on the Ring! Excellent video as always!
600hp @ 2,5 tons. Equates to about 300 hp @ hatchback weight :)
@@stoneeh it doesn't work like that. This car with all its weight will trample almost all hot hatches in everything, including lap times (maybe aside from tracks with many tight corners).
Also, hammering a 600HP 2.2-ton car on a track is much scarier than a hot hatch.
@@stoneeh jesus lord have i just read this 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This car is the passangers lol.
@@stoneeh I had a 300hp Leon Cupra and even the previous gen 560hp RS6 would absolutely munch it straight lines as if the Cupra wasn't moving
I really enjoyed the way you interacted with the passenger in this one Misha. Your driving as always is on point but you kept this in car atmosphere lovely and calm. Excellent
Thank you!
About time we saw you round the ring, Ashley!!!
@@sanmiguel4019yeah misha and ashley would be a cool crossover tbh
Wasn't expecting Ashley here.. would love to see you two drive
Imagine what would happen if the gearbox really suddenly decided to switch to reverse
I guess it would not make it back in flawless condition
Remember, R stands for racing, everything would be fine!
Instant spin. Happened too many times in assetto corsa lol. Surprisingly controllable with experience
Not sure it would even be possible irl though
It won't it have protections.
If the gearbox is really bad about its sensors and everything and really tries to switch to reverse probably it would break something but the driver would only feel the scary noise and be like going to neutral.
For Misha: Chilled lap.
For Jens: 20km of code brown.
Jens is a freaking legend. He handled it pretty good for someone that was about to put a steamer in his pants. 🤣
that gearbox is toast. I've driven many RS6 / RS7 and none of them had that issue.
Yeah these rockets are solid usually but this is just a production fault. That one has to be replaced under warranty but I assume his dealer started replacing small components first to see if it eliminates the issue. Well they are right to think about small things first, but either TCU or whole gearbox is faulty. Only one way to find out and thats only if the owner insists into replacing these to get it fixed. Because these beasts build to get thrown in corners and pushed to limits. Hope the owner can get it sorted soon. Nice car regardless!
I've spoken to dozens of RS6 / RS7 owners and this is the first time I've ever heard about a transmission issue! Interesting.
@@berkebulur7625 yeah, looks like a TCU issue. Before arriving at Breidscheid (from 5:00) , where Misha changes into 3rd, the display still shows that they were in 2nd. When he then changed into 4th, the display quickly shows 3rd before changing to the correct gear, the 4th.
Seems like the TCU needs some time to realize which gear it's in.
@@B0B_BELCHER very good point!
yeah weird ive had my rs7 c8 for last 18 months with stage 2+ tune 815bhp and gearbox has been mapped and perfect.
That guy was nervous, thank god it didn't go into reverse mid bend, lol. Terrific driving as always Misha!
even if it engagas Reverse, the car will be in neutral until it drops the speed to under 10km/h.
@@timedestroyer92 would it though? i don't know how exactly it works, and whether it could physically get reverse to engage at speed, but what if due to a failure it doesn't know that it's not doing under 10 kph?
@@zloychechen5150 yep theres videos on here that show what happens when reverse is selected at high speed. Me personally have tried to engage Reverse while going about 20km/h… the reverse lights do light up but the car is in neutral until the vehicle is under 6-8 km/h. Same with electonic hand brake, if you are doing above 20 km/h, you have to keep pulling the brake button and the car slows down slowly the same as like u are pressing the brake pedal.
@@zloychechen5150 theres mechanical and electronic sensor around the whole car and the automatic gearbox that always know the exact speed in order to prevent such a scenario. If the car suddenly ‘dies’ and it is going at high speed and is able to engage reverse, that would a trillion dollar mistake because it would mean that all automatic gearbox cars can act the same.
@@zloychechen5150 That sort of failure would be immediately obvious and provide numerous warning messages on the dashboard.
His wife in the back seat was way more relaxed, she was even having fun!
Yellow, my savior, great news 🙂
Wow, I didn't notice his wife in the back until I saw your comment, lol
Surprised how well the stock RS7 seems to be handling the track. Likeable owner as well.
With 3 passengers
You can name that lap as "looking for the yellow" ;) Now his Audi dealer have reasons to repair ASAP the gearbox issues if they don't want a lot of viewers really upset about a 100k+ € car, almost brand new, with that really expensive issue.
They luckily did!
@@mgcharoudin They also could have said that there is no warranty because of track usage. P.S. Deine Videos sind toll!
I wonder if that applies to the nurburgring since it's technically a public road
What a trooper 👏 looked scared the entire run 🤣🤣🤣🤣 what Misha does best!!! Time off his life
He is probably not scared, maybe a tad but it's the G loads that will take a toll on an unfit person. Just saying, G's will take your breath away and put massive amount of weight on your body compressing you. You can hear him grunting, those are small amounts of G loads.
@@JuergenGDB misha drove my car this year 🙌 I was gutted my car suffered from heat soak that alot of tuned cars did. However the section he did send it I was pretty much the same as the guy in the video 🤣🤣
@@mario978 Our video still to be published :)
@@mgcharoudin all sorted now with oil cooler. Next year we go again with a few more handling upgrades.
Für jemanden, der scheinbar keine Rennsporterfahrung hat, kennt der Besitzer die Strecke aber sehr genau :) Hoffe er bekommt das mit der Automatik in der Griff und als Händler würde ich mir genau überlegen, ob ich nur das Getriebe oder später eventuell noch den Motor auf Garantie (Folgeschaden) auf mein Kosten übernehmen will. Kann aber auch nur was mit der Sensorik/Steuergerät sein, da die Anzeige mehrere Fehler rausgehauen hat.
Will dem Halter auch nicht zu Nahe treten aber hier sieht man mal wieder sehr gut, dass man sein ganzes Leben lang im Auto unterwegs gewesen ist, ohne je richtig gefahren zu sein. Geht mit eurem Auto mal auf ne Strecke, macht ein Training mit etc. Kann euch oder auch jemand anderem das Leben retten und viel Leid ersparen. Mir hatte es bereits 1x geholfen als ich im Winter durch Glatteis in den Gegenverkehr gerutscht bin.. Grüße an die Mini-Fahrerin an der Stelle und sorry für den Shockmoment.
Schönes KFZ und angenehmes Video :)
It is so engaging how Misha drives in total chill, brakes early, being subtle in the corners, while the owner is in big time shitting in pants mode. Plus he's giving instrunctions like watch out for the ABS at the jump :D
Lol yeah some people are nervous passengers, they don't understand the limit of a car in many cases only because they don't have experience. Plus that car costs a pretty penny he's just scared it gets wrecked I'd say and lets face it the green hell is called that for a reason, the general public crash there regularly
The car didnt break.
Misha always having the tyre pressures on display now.
It was super cool to see how they changed during the lap
@@loquek yeah tbh never knew the temp of the outside tire could go up a couple degrees in a single fast corner that was cool to see
The grunt he made at T-13 made me think he wasnt gonna make it through the lap without throwing up 😅
Misha... Start driving "better" so we can get that viral video of someone throwing up 😉
When you think you have a fast car and think you are a race driver. then Micha drives your car.
“She handles better than my nerves”
This line made me laugh! 🤣👍🏼
This is so fun to see such a large variety of different cars and car owners on a lap having an experience! These videos are great! :))
That is my mum whenever I go 5kmph over the limit 😂
I like the fact the ODO clicked over to 15,000kms as you were at 195 :)
Awesome video, loved seeing the RS7 go around. The brakes are something I could look at for hours. It really is a shame when these “newer” cars have issues like this one did. I’ve already had to lemon a car of mine for gearbox issues as well 😅.
He underestimated the drive(r) and car from the first second.
But he kept his humor, and let you do your thing, even with his fear, honorable.
P.S. The lady did not flinch at all :D
Great stuff Misha.
Mooi om ook een klein beetje Duits bij te leren via jouw video's :)
This is so cool. The owner is definitely having some stress but I'm guessing he hadn't felt that alive in a very long time and was actually impressed with the ability of Misha as well as the car. Awesome video, thank you so much for sharing!
The wife in the back was having a blast 😀
I love this. What a great car owner. Was his wife/partner just chilling back there?! What a boss!
Not sure what’s it’s called in Audi term but could be the TCM (Transmission Control Module) at fault. Maybe a re-flash or replace would help sort it out. Thx for another excellent driving from Misha and the owner for sharing this great video! ❤
Mishas German was at least so good, that he could calm the poor old man down over the whole lap. Was fun to watch :-)
9:00 i like it when Misha says that his wife is way more relaxed, he says she has better nerves and she is like, Was denn ? Der fährt doch sehr sicher! What do you mean, he is driving very safe.
but nearly 130 degrees oil on a stock car and im pretty sure with something like a 0W30. uff
i really dont want to know, how the engine feels, when its chip tuned and going all out.
All these people in the comments flaming him for being scared or not knowing the capabilities of the car really upset me. He probably bought the car as a "Daily" and just wanted to enjoy a weekend of Nordschleife. Who are you to tell someone which car to buy? Or do I have to sit in my Tracktool on my way to work? Calm the F down...
So good. Reminds me of a ring taxi ride with my parents. The gearbox stuff may be related to a steering wheel module or the "clock spring" not communicating shift commands via paddles. If the shift selector has gear change ability, id try that before blaming the gearbox. Hopefully the dealer has a test circuit out back!
He now knows what his car can d, bless him being so scared and joyful at the same time
Its sad that Audi has such a poor oil cooling system compared to bmw. My Friends old RS5 also had those gearbox issue… typical Audi thing i guess, and i used to be an Audi guy from childhood but when you grow up u start to look at things diffrent.
Schön zu sehen wie sauber aber schnell Misha mit dem 2.3 Tonnen Gefährt fährt. Super Linie!
Nein, das ist Kratzflangen nicht ampflugen schlitzen krauf den kleibe klengen!
Wäre der Beifahrer nicht so ein Angsthase würde er noch mehr geben.
I love the saying about oversteer being when the passenger is scared and understeer the driver scared. Will definitely repeat that!
Cool to see a kind of a german video! Scary that the car had such problems
😂 Thought he was gonna pass out. Least he got settled in a bit later. Excellent lap . Love these cars in forza. Excellent fun. ✌
i love it , impressive machine over engineered, the poor gearbox i hope it gets better soon
Many thanks for this great lap. I love your Videos!!
It's funny how for Misha it's just another day in the office but all of his passengers are screaming on the inside
Man sat in rs7 with probably one of the best drivers and he is worried 😂 I be letting u do your thing 😂
Ein Video auf Deutsch, sehr geil. Mega sympathisch der Herr!
Every generation of RS6 has that broken gearbox option as standard .
Great driving Misha, as usual.
Incorrect translation though:
5:10 "Der hat auch Probleme gehabt, dass er teilweise nicht weiss in welchem Gang er ist. und dass er im drive stecken bleibt wenn du auf P oder auf R gehst und aber anzeigt, dass er in dem Gang ist in dem du sein willst"
Talking about the gearbox: "It has also had problems with not knowing which gear it is in and getting stuck in drive when you go to P or R but indicating that it is in the gear you want to be in." (meaning that it stays in Drive but tells you it is in P or R. Probably not while driving at high speed).
Misha I'm impressed with your german! Very cool car and video. Thanks for sharing all this great content dude!
I'm happy that my rs6 doesn't have such a gearbox issues, been great 40k km so far
4:19 such a funny reaction , made me giggle
6:45 mad respect for lil bro, held him off for a bit there
It was really interesting to see how high the tyre pressures got
As a German I can tell the owner is the type of driver who always complains about slower cars on the left lane on the German Autobahn (on a straight). Thanks Misha for puting him into his "seat" (kind of sweaty).
🤣🤣
Eine amüsante Überaschung, gen Ende zu erfahren, das seine Frau auch mit an Bord war und alles kommentarlos und ohne Schreie über sich ergehen lassen hat, während der Besitzer mit Pressatmung den Fliehkräften trotzen musste.
Awesome drive, love the passengers and the little banter, seemed to have better grip then the old rs6. why is that so?
finally released the beast and moved what it was built for. 👍🏻
When passenger shouted “yellow” near end of the lap he really meant it 😂😂👍
Good job, I never imagined the RS7 Doing that well!
Reminds me of my debut lap in my car around killarney, when i told the instructor to send it. I did not expect brown
I was getting more and more nervous with the gearbox comments. Also the understeer-oversteer comment was too funny!
Misha thank you for translating! I appreciate it a lot lol
6:09 That Suzuki Jimny / Samurai looks a bit slammed for what it was built for 😂. I own one myself and this is giving me some ideas 😁
Only mentioning after the start, sometimes it goes into R, wasnt a good idea on his part.
The fear was real though, you shortened that man's life with a couple of years. I'd have the same fear though, cannot blame him.
Great video, thanks for sharing!
awesome with the subtitles. Thanks
One of your best videos, awesome!
The gearbox seems to not notice when changing down manually so it tries to switch to a gear that it already thinks it is in
Look at the second carousel, Misha shifts into second, the car thinks it's in third and after not knowing what to do the car switches to 4th gear but shows it in the display way later
Throwing a 2 and half ton car
Around is quite difficult lol.
Great driving Misha, Jen's seemed
A little distracted by the speed.
He had no idea, his car was capable
of that. Most people don't. Nice1 👍
Super vom Besitzer dass er seinen Audi mal richtig auf der Nordschleife ausfahren lässt Leider machen das wenige Audi besitzer 😂
Wauw. What a dynamic car. this rs7 is really good. hardly heard any squealing tires. the stronic needs an update i think
I didn't expect that misha speaks and understands German! Lol. Hilarious video and fun lap ngl. I should watch more of these 😂💙
I had a 2018 Audi S3 (Stock Power) and the gearbox would do a similar thing. It would be up to temperature etc. but sometimes it would either not change up when I was pushing on or completely slip into Neutral before sorting itself out. I had it from new, well looked after and had no more than 25km on the clock - strange! I know its a very different car, power and different gearbox but I had similar experiences. Great video as always Misha!!
Yeah the VW DSG stuff can be janky sometimes. It could be the DSG computer inside the block. Maybe it was overheated of shorted. Maybe worth the look
@@turkisch66fireworks I’ve not got the car anymore, so no worries. It wouldn’t happen often, it would be one of those things you would say “I’ll get that sorted soon” and then it wouldn’t happen again for ages and you forget until it does it again!
130°C Öltemperatur...da würd ich aber den Ölwechsel mal ein paar Kilometer vorziehen :D
130°C Oiltemperature - i'd do that oil change a little bit early...
nicely done handling the gearbox issue. what do people mostly use for cleaning the windscreen after a lap?
What a car the presence is incredible and the noise is intoxicating. WANT lol
My head trusts Misha, whether my stomach would at the speeds an RS7 can do is another question. Respect to Jens.
Thats odd. VAG gearboxes will shift up when they hit the rev limiter. This one seems to not do that. Most car people would love that feature.
Amazing seeing how high the tyre temps went towards the end of the lap 😮
2,3 tonnes. It would not be able to go another la p. That's the difference between sports car and fast car.
oil temp close to 130C is more amazing to see considering the e63s barely got above 110 mostly staying below 110 while full sending it
Great way to test the dealer repair work on the gear box
I looks like misha hit the limit of the car at carousel perfect. Great driving again !
Great lap and video, Misha! But why the car's oil temp is going crazy, like isn't 129 degrees a bit too hot for this driving??
Really enjoyed this one.
I had similar problems with my rs5 sport back. Sometimes when I was driving around 130kph it kicked down to third and was hitting the revlimiter
I just realized that you hit 15,000 kilometers on this RS7 while absolutely sending it! Great video Misha!
Nice video. Got to watch a great lap and learn a bit of German at the same time :)
I was once driven in my car by a professional racing driver. Now I know, I don’t need a more powerful car.
The gerbils that tell the transmission to shift when you hit the paddle must have been scared as well.
Probably oil level isnt correct inside transmission. Thats why it takes air (going N) when cornering hard. ZF8HP70 normally doesnt have problems going in to N, only when oil is too low..
The owner was shitting bricks lol
Would love to take my diesel E Klasse with Misha one day.
Great run with laughter.
I suggest to have Jens in every video from now on !! He is fantastic ( dont be jelus MIsha !)
I like how he said watchout for the abs after the jump in the mini jump
Coolant temp goes to 128....damn its high for road car..... with no intervension on cooling system.... and gearbox is cooled with same cooling sistem..... Amazing
seems like this car is a doddle to drive fast, so comfortable. and man, those tyre temperatures...started at 37 and ended at 85 degrees.
the rs7 in all black is such a beauty to look at
He always had a heart atack, hes obviuosly impressed by your driving skill
I just do not understand why some people are buying cars with 600BHP. And I also do not understand why they are going on track if they know there is probably an issue with the gearbox. Just my opinion.
It just came back from the dealer :) And went back after
Anybody can enjoy a fast acceleration
@@R03333 And looks!!!
Wow what a machine that is when it gets going!
it is interesting how much tires and oil are heated up
I love how you keep bouncing the rev limiter every time it refuses to shift up
That makes for excellent demonstration of how f'd the transmission is when you go back to the dealer AFTER they've supposedly fixed it. Then again, they wouldn't be testing it at the edge so maybe it behaves fine in all other scenarios. Without a Misha lap, they might've been none the wiser for ages. It was terrible last bend. It ended up shifting by the sounds of it in like 5th or 6th or something and was still displaying 3 😐
@@9a2er indeed, I’ve noticed the same thing many times.
King of the road! So much tech in this car! On the pro hands its a fun on a unpro driver its a weapon against him!
The car is brutal but those new models are not so famous about their reliability. Thanks Misha!
Not like you can call the older, big engine generations of audi reliable
You know sometimes when you drive your car sluggish way for 15000 km and then you try to push on the car is weird.
@@tomassykora5193 I fully agree with this. It might even just break. I've seen it before. A car with almost no miles purchased from an older person. Still like new and when you push it it breaks. That's why I break my cars in the hard way and keep driving them hard. Somehow they last longer.
@Game Tester 100!! LoL
The engine is build by Porsche and the trans by ZF. Normaly they should be fine. At the end they can last if you treat them right. The V8's need some love.
