Imagine if Jimmer went pro and in an after race interview -
"Jimmy, you had a bit of contact out there with Verstappen, do you have any comments on the contact?"
"Well y'know, he's just a bit of a pleb"
"Being a tarmac specialist, i must recognize that it was his fault, not mine"
Lamo
'He didn't have any 'No punterino pls' stickers on his car so it was fair game'
Oh man....Irony..
And now he’s in Praga!
Jimmy, your target lap time is 2.04.7
Jimmer: Hold my shoey.
hold my shed
Hold my Sim-Racing...
Catch a Glimmer of Jimmer in his Bimmer, Part 1 of 3.
Jimmer, of course, being a simmer
@@PaulMutser Darn missed that one!
@@PaulMutser As long as he stops before he gets to rimmer.
@@Jambobist But Jimmer is a bit of a sinner, though he does look slimmer since he forgot to shave using his trimmer
Jimmer the simmer?
He's growing up so fast😢 makes a grown man cry
right? crazy feels like yesterday he was just starting youtube
Yo it’s gonna happen
Plz no Real life Punterino Jimmer
Where did the puntarino thing start?
Jimmer has finally ascended to superior status.
Clark Duffy Shed Dweller ascended to Shed Racer
Hell yes, Jimmer.... I can already hear the Ferrari F1 Team drawing up your 2021 contract now.....
nah, he's going to mclaren, lando+jimmer #1 meme team
@@kapitanOsveta Meme - dream - racing Team :D
@@kapitanOsveta Love it
That 2:02 was probably the fastest that car has done around Assen. I find it an amazing achievement considering you only had a few hours of practice!
Says the guy who was in the blue one that Charles made fun of at around 10:50... “slow down to allow Albert to catch up... I don’t know where he is....” 😂
Albert drives like he owns the car, which he does, while Jimmy drives like he doesn't own the car, and he doesn't. ... :-) But indeed his laptimes were very good. Sadly our longer gearing only costs about 1 second a lap in the simulator Albert, so there goes that excuse.
Well I assume Charles can lap it a lot quicker. Would be fun to know what he can do. Not to diss Jim, just to compare.
@@hkr667 Yeah talent aside I'd like to see what someone with experience pushing just as hard would look like. But wow, I'm really happy for him. Makes me sad I gave up my racing. But it inspires me to the possibility of going back.
@@xX_Gravity_Xx Same here. Got out of club racing for family reason but being completely out is no fun either. Racing never leaves you it seems
@@TheChannel1978 I had a kid and have sarcoidosis. But maybe once I'm in remission and she's in school
When you iron out that shaking of the wheel feeling for grip, you'll certainly look like a pro.
Yeah was gonna say the same. Coming from Sim Racing is helpful but not for the feel of the car. And if he loses that I reckon he could be not that bad indeed. This video definitely gives a lot of hope.
Exactly, but I guess he's fairly new to Assen..
If you know the circuit, you throw it in, and hold it steady all the way in..
Opening up and accelerating in a perfect balance..
I think it's just a habit from sim racing, IRL you can feel the g-forces but in sim you just kinda have to keep testing the grip.
@@stupidrainbo well.. I have both Sim and real life on track footage.
If you're familiar with the actual track, steering input should be as consistent as possible..
Nonetheless, the shaking steering wheel is non Sim related 😛
I had the same problem when coming from sim racing, it can be quite dangerous lol but it’s an extremely hard habit to lose as it’s drilled into your head. Once you get used to being able to feel the G’s of the car to know if you have grip, it disappears but I found that when I got back on a sim, it screwed me over lol
3 years later: JIMMY BROADBENT NEW F1 DRIVER! GET YOUR NEWSPAPERS HERE!
Newspapers? What year is it, 1960?
@The Road for real though are newspapers still being sold?
Do you live under a stone? Don't your store sell newspapers? lol, it's not year 3212. :P
17:14 its just like the beginning of any ILMS race. You're finally getting good laptimes and then suddenly..
*Here come the LADS* :D
literally like the GT4 license tests lmao sections of track to get the feel for the car and how it moves and reacts, a pace (guide) lap, then open hot laps!
Thicc Brit drives with the heusinkveld lads in the country of weed

Jimmer has ascended to "high end plebarino."
Looking good mate! You'll soon forget about all of us
Thicc Brit enjoys bit of ASSen.
Nice drivin' Jimmer, you deserve it!

Looks like those lessons paid off!!
Jimmy in a real race car, man i could cry. Great stuff dude, you've come such a long way with your channel =D congrats and great driving!
I've always liked the way you are, Jimmy. You don't brag - you are modest and respectful, while being an excellent driver. I fucking respect you man... Never change your attitude, no matter how far you might get on your adventure. I wish you the best luck, and may the racing gods smile upon you and give way for your destiny.
I felt so elated for our Jimmer when he achieved the 2:02!
Praying for continued growth and success, brother! You dedication and passion will take you far.
Love from Florida!
Jimmer: So I can´t go through and scream at GTs like I do, right?
Also Jimmer: 14:30
Really good driving man, can´t wait for the next video!
Its fun to watch this as a guy who have been driving in Finland for many years. :)
and its so happy to see youre so happy, racing really makes you feel.
you're a king jimmy. the world of racing is ego driven and some drivers don't care to talk too much about the talent of others, but no one can take away the skill you have now, and the work you've put in to get to this point.
This video made me happy for Jimmy. Congratulations man =)
Yeah Jimmer. You are living the dream for all of us. Couldn’t be happier for you to get to do all these amazing things through sim racing. You are the best dude.
i dont normally say this about youtubers... at all, but im actually happy for you jimmy. great to see you getting the opportunity to get on track for real. looking forward to more
Jimmy-"how'm I doin"
Instructor-"theirs somebody here from Porsche that wants to talk to you"
Good job Jimmy, your 2:02 just looked like a really good lap!!
2:02 on your first day? jimmy that is seriously impressive. i honestly believe you will be able to drive anything you have driven in sim in real life as well. if they gave you the keys to a GT3 car for a weekend all by yourself and let you just go practice with the thing. i bet youll be setting lap times very close to what you do on sim. your equipment really helped prepare you for this. the fact your not using some logitec g920.
Edit: also its very nice to see all the thousands of hours of practice you've had are really starting to shine. you really come into your own when inside the real car.
It's so cool to be (kind of) a part of your Journey. I've been around since you were a low budget shedracer and had about 5k subs or so, it's so crazy to see you now as a boa fide racing driver. Well fucking done mate, you're an inspiration and a really good advert for hard work and dedication.
Pls try not to Punterino Jimmer.
2.02 is crazy well done Jimmer. Also, the camera moving slightly under G Force gave a real sense of speed was great to watch
Awesome Jimmy! Fun Fact, Michael Koel (one of the guys behind Cool Driving Events) has visited my house to try out some simrace gear just when it became more mainstream (Race07 era). Also did a couple of laps with him on Zandvoort and a couple of driving events on Lelystad. Him, aswell as Zwolsman are great teachers! Good choice by Heusinkveld to go with them ;)
Currently getting the supercharger rebuilt on my car and I gotta say man your videos are absolutely scratching that itch I've had since I've been off the strip and even peaked my interest in rallying as well I just wish there were more race tracks around me and I had the capital to really pick up on my hobby. Keep up the fantastic work man you absolutely have earned a new sub
Came to this straight after watching the first ever upload back in 2012 - amazing how far the channel, and the man have come. Awesome.
Jimmer's always wearing gloves on his sim but no gloves when driving an actual race car lol. Awesome video mate, well done with the 2:02 looking forward to the next part.
Good for You - greatings from Poland !
"Traffic was a real issue" starting to not only drive like an F1 driver now, but also starting to sound like one 😝 Great work Jimmy can't wait to see more irl racing content 👍🔥💯
"Dude is blipping. He's a pro! WTF!?" - HA HA, that's awesome. Blipping boi here. ..
Blippy Blip Boi
Always blip before shift 👌
Congrats, really happy for you Jimmer! Well done, Keep it up!!!
Dude, you killed it! You look far far far more comfortable in a proper car vs a kart. And your downshifts were crisp!
Jimmer will soon be joining the ranks of proffessional racing drivers. So proud of how far he's come. A real inspiration to myself and my sim racing antics. Jimbo out there showing that with dedication, and supporting family, dreams can come true.
Edit: 2:02 LEGENDARY. And on the first low traffic attempt. Don't push it off on the time of day Jimmy, we all know it would have been a 2:03.5 at midday. Lol.
If our son Jimmy finally turns into a full time race car driver we need to sponsor him. One little sticker slapped on the corner of the rear bumper for all the world to see.
I honestly love the onboard noise it's so good! But I'm also really happy for ya keep pushing jimmer your dream will be a reality.
I can't wait for that 1 million sub video. It's coming sooner that you think Jimmer. Been here since 120-130k I think, wish i showed up sooner. Love you content man, huge respect for what you are doing and inspiring me to start my own YT gaming channel with my 8 year old toaster of a pc :))
Man I was so happy to see that 2:02! Tears came to my eyes as I watch our boi killing it. Awesome shit
tears?? Jesus Christ
Jimmy once again you prove that sim racing does give a good base for real racing :) It's great to see you enjoy it so much .
Its crazy to see your progress over the past few years jimmy im really proud of you!
Amazing man. Happy to come along for the ride as you make your dreams come true. Been a sub since 50k and excited to see what's next in your journey. Cheers.
more video of this to come?! super excited. great stuff jimmy
That was so satisfying to watch. The way you fed the car to the apex 😍 it looks like it has even more grip to give too. Keep it up jimmer!
Jimmer this was incredible! Hell of a job learning the car, track, and conditions as well as you did man!
Awesome production quality Jimmy. The look on your face when you got out of the car and talked to Niels was great to see.
Great video again Jimmy! U were killing it on track! Just had my first race experience aswell, certainly was not my last, Unbelieveable feeling! Keep up the good work jimmer💪

Great video Jimmer! Love the little comparisons to the sim
Such a satisfying vid to watch, been watching ya since the begining, well played mate! Keep it going
Welcome in my hometown👌🏼 I drove at TT Assen too.
You are much better in a car than in the karts. In a car its very methodical and it works well. Great hot lap at the end there
That a boy Jimmy! what a well put together video and absolutly MEGA experience! gotta love the sound of a BMW 6 Cyl.
I'm extremely happy for you! Congrats!
12:10 They're mocking you in the background ;)
Just wait until Jimmer is faster than all of them. Who's gonna be shaking at the wheel then? 😂
really cool to see you do all this stuff Jimmer.. you are killin it! super jealous!
Being subbed to you when you had about 10k subs to seeing this it's just crazy. Good job dude that's pretty impressive.
cool to see you drive on a track thats about 45 minutes from where i live

Congrats Jimmer, keep it up and the great videos coming.
awesome. you are making us dream. i m happy to see how this all goes for you, just never forget how lucky you are to be able to live your passion 👍👌
I am sooo damn jealous of you right now.
Loved the royalty wave you gave the red car.. :D
Looks like a great event! I went to a driving experience @ Circuit Zandvoort a few months ago and got to drive a BMW, Porsche 911 GT3, Anston Martin and a McLaren on the track. Awesome experience!
Jimmy I am so happy for you!! Legend!
You've come so far Jimmer
That bm sounds beautiful in the higher rev range
So great to see you being able to experience amazing things like this, you deserve it and cant wait to see the rest of the content
Great job! Get rid of the wheel wobble, put on a fire suit, a HANS, some fingerless gloves and keep the aviators. They let us know you are still Jimmy "Not a pleb" broadbent
Great job Jimmy! I look forward to seeing more footage!
Dude this is what dreams are made of. Ride this far. I want to see you racing some day.
What a really great video! Looking forward to part 2
Man I'm really happy for you! I'll always be rooting for you!
Jimmmmmmerr. It’s amazing to see you do this.
Good on ya Jimmy loving watching you proving people wrong about sim racing clearly it's a very valid training tool and is serving you well can't wait to see you racing for real think if he got upto lmp1 lol that would be epic and amazing content haha stay safe Jimmy best of all have fun
Thicc brit pounds Dutch track, part 1 completed. Good job Jimmer!
Congratulations on your lap time Jimmy, I really enjoyed watching you demonstrating your sim racing technique on real life, well done. Cheers from Brazil mate ;)
