RECORD-HOT 620HP Audi TT VR6 // Nürburgring 

I love how the owner was smiling the whole time with brief moments of fear.

Misha was right once again.. tuned cars usually having heat problems.. wanna go fast, but builder missed cooling increase while building :D

I drove 21 laps of the ring today after finally getting here from Australia. Mishas videos are fantastic but nothing can capture how intense this track is. I have a whole new level of respect for what he does and how well he does it. If you are thinking about making the trip just do it, there is nothing in the world like driving the Nurburgring.

THAT AWKWARD SILENCE 😂

Moral of the story on lots of recent videos... uprate your cooling.

LOL that was painful. The awkward silence waiting for the temp to drop was like a date where both knew its going nowhere but couldn't leave haha

You can See in his Face he was really enjoying the First Minutes of Hard driving

The drivers reaction is priceless. Imagine handing someone your built car and they drive as fast as misha does with it. His mind is blown away hahaha would love to have that experience some day!

Holy moly this TT runs fast! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 the guy in the Mclaren whas a bit suprised what he saw coming in hot trough his back view mirror 🤣

Misha next time, before you hop in, ask these guys if they have upgraded cooling for these high powered machines!

Ok who came here expecting a hot lap record and got an overheat record 🤣 ok just me 🤦🏻

Was going quite fast, especially considering PS4 tires. Do cooling and put some CUP 2s on and come back for another lap.

3:04 Misha contemplating the car heavily: ''It doesn't go when I'm on the gas.'' The passenger: ''😁''

i am sad for the who owns the car because he was expecting a lot of fun, that big smile in his face prove it

Loved how the owner was always smiling enjoying his car and the ride

MAJOR heatsoaking going on, even if its fast you can tell the owner has never pushed it properly (not flaming here), the temps dont drop because all the heat exchangers are surrounded with super hot air, and the airflow even while moving isnt enough, also could be tuned for colder weather and is not adjusting fuel properly

VR6's always sound great!

I'm tired of cars that can't make a lap due overheating! ;-)

Hilarious that Misha takes one look at the build and knows for certain it's going to heat soak.. It was a fucking wild ride for like 10 seconds.. but yeah.. cooling is the first part of the design, oil coolers spec'd properly for the trans and diff, big intercooler for the track, and racing fluids. Plus the proper aero to get the heat out of the engine.. thermal wraps, maintain proper flow, especially on a new engine swap. That build looks almost thrown together, but the potential is realized.. now making it trackable is next. Awesome.

another amazing video ive been watching for a while and play assetto corsa and learning from your videos to get better love the content:)

You guys nailed it! Misha with driving and the owner with smiling, love it!

Misha was a bit mad 🤭🤭

Love the owners enthusiasm and expressions! 😊

Nice car 👍. The VR6 is so compact I'm surprised it doesn't have more cooling issues (naturally).

Bruh! My favorite ring video of you is still the red big Turbo fiesta ST. That thing was set up big Turbo big intercooler and big Radiator big brakes. And bracing all around. Your smile in that thing was fantastic.

❤❤❤nice to see how the passenger smiles when misha shows him what's in his car

Remember to scale the cooling area with the amount of power added. 3 times the HP requires 3 times the cooling.

The smiles on the faces are half the reason I watch the videos 😁

Beautiful car and a real shame with the heat issues. The VR6 is a very durable block, great for turbo - but it's size means it also hold a lot of heat - I'm in the process of building a similar car and it already has multiple auxilary oil coolers. I hope I'll make it to the ring one day

Bravo pour ton calme le conducteur ! Un Mozart de la piste !

Misha what a sweet Car at the Beginning. Wish these Guys start putting Turbo in the Rear of the Vehicle and Install big A&& Radiator to Keep Temp Down

Official reminder to euro OEM+ #S2000 owners to get Misha your car so we can have a proper #S2000 lap video!

Got to love the nurburgring I'm on the track on gran Turismo 7 all the time but I can't wait to hit the real thing one day

I had an old beater, doubled the radiator size, wheels, tires, suspension, bored out throttle body, ram air intake. Never overheated once, just good slow fun!😂

AWESOME view man. Super duper awesome.

Gotta love Mishas diplomacy…

The owner looked like he was having the time of his life. Would have been a blast

Zajebista furka stary, ale chłodzenie to widać po emocjach na twarzy od razu będzie zrobione :D

nice dude, nice car.... the smile says enough! love the colour

Haha! I thought to myself "if this doesn't overheat by foxhole, I'm surprised" - and there we go 🤣 24v 3.2l VR6 (R32) I assume, which was offered in the TTs?

The new default mods on those awesome modified car should be brake and cooler.

I've never seen Misha look so bored behind the wheel 😂 obviously big frustration and largely a waste of a lap when the car can't handle the heat. The silence for two thirds of the lap was like you'd both had a massive argument 🤣🤣

First acceleration till the first corner the owner is like this 😁, every onwer smile a lot in all lap, i love it

Get the heaters on hot Full blast and live with the heat in the cabin. Helps massively bring temps down of engine.

Some E85 would fix that up and multiple oil coolers and better radiator TT suspension pretty good and brake are on point nice work

The owner was smiling the whole time, thats nice! :)) We love that car!

Perfect example of a street car not a track car. It doesn’t have to be the Nurburgring in order to overheat this setup. Any normal track 2 laps tops before this car would do the exact same thing. Cool car, but with this amount of power it needs to stick to the street unless he wants to do a ton more supporting mods.

Got to love misha guys turns up in a hugely modded car that is a fast road car for most mear mortals, and finds the weak points, what a legend.

savage car. really believe this car deserves a revisit

Misha doesn't see bends/turns, just the shortest path through them 😎🤙

The speedometer at the bottom, and owner has a worried smile…👍🤗

First few minutes where amazing, but am surpised front engine car has that much heat issues? Curious of the cause, be it; (a) radiator and plumping (b) airflow below and above (c) need for oil coolers or just all of the above?

Another great drive Misha.......I have a question not relevant to this video: I'm confused by Helmets in some of your videos, why do you wear them sometimes on not other times? Are there days where their required? Or certain drivers that insist on wearing them?

Unusual for Misha to spot that 👍

Came and hired an Audi TT in black, back when your company was called "Rent the Ring" and your office was a small shed!! You've come a long way Misha! Keep up the great content, buddy. It's about time we came back for the Apex experience tbh.

Overheated already in Adenauer Forst?! VR6 is the worst choice for the TT. Maximum weight on the front axle.

Traction control can be *actually* disabled in VCDS within the ABS module.

Misha trying to think of nice things to say about the guys car I could feel the awkwardness from my mobile phone...😳😳🤣 Well done Misha you are a pro...👍🏻😎👍🏻

That VR6 Sound tho 💯

Misha is so relaxed !!!

Well, we all know that tuner's cars have the tendency to overheat. Still, the owner saw what his car is capable of, and he got out of the ring with one final upgrade to do: Cooling. Car got the sweet spot for the engine, the suspension setup is on point (even though Misha does not agree with me), aero is good, will be faster if tyres are grippier, it just needs better cooling. And better cooling is not a huge headache, nor it is a money sink, so fixing it is doable, if he has the time and the money to do it.

Car sounded like a deli slicer with the fenders chewing into the tires!

Suspension and cooling added to the list

What kind of inspection(s) do you do on the car before you drive it?

I wanna see more of that XR2i at 3:20 😍😍

Misha whenever traction control can't be turned off 😑😑😑 lol Looked pretty quick otherwise! Misha, if you were going to get an off the shelf coilover for say a 1760 kg m4, what would you say is a preferable spring rate for the ring? I see in most of your videos, you comment about them being too soft. Thanks! Always love these videos

Real fast car! Give them cooler hardware and come back!!

I always wondered why people do so many modifications to the suspension brakes and chassis but leave the engine completely stock... Now i know exactly why 😜. Bigger radiator with some extra oil and trans coolers seem to be the recipe for success at the "Greatest Toll Road On Earth". People always overlook the supporting mods that come along with increased engine performance. I love the guys with 800whp civic hatchbacks with $3000 coilovers and enough stiffening bars to build another tube chassis civic. Then when you ask about the brakes there like..."Stock calipers and rotors with upgraded pads from amazon, back brakes dont matter as much so its the factory drums" 😲....WHAT!!!!...."Its a light car so bigger better brakes aren't needed"... There rasilization over important safety factors always blow my mind.

Not a car nerd but with some of the overheating cars I question if they would even survive 5 mins on the Autobahn at 9/10 of the limit. It makes sense for drag cars where cooling is not that important for a few seconds max power output but to bring it to a track idk.

Misha’s face at the beginning of the lap lol… he’s like what kind of crap is this…

Brakes , Suspension and cooling ... those are the basics 🤷🏽‍♂️ misha been saying that

Vr6 TT is my dream car. Get one, clean it up and keep forever.

great ride ! 👌 Whole car setup give us the class of mods. We wait for colder try...

the seat time misha gets in different cars is insane.

That is unfortunate but lesson learned, I just can't wait for this car redeem itself (You can see it's performance in the first part of the video and it's fixable). Definitely needs a comeback redemption. Can't wait 😁👌

and this is why our VR6 TT doesnt have forced induction.. also funny that they upgraded the brakes (which in the VR6 TT are the same ones you find on the TTS) but didnt do anything about the cooling.

It can you have to hold it down for 5 seconds plus and it turns everything off. Also buy the rs grill and fog light inserts they are not blocked, better cooling.

My guess is the engine was deprived of oil, maybe oil levels were too low but because of the G's when turning left it sloshed the oil to the right, temps went through the roof and there is your problem.

I don't know why but this looks like the the fastest car I've seen them take around this track (from the dash cam footage) Edit: I just saw the SF90 video after this and that looks even crazier!

My has a bone stock MK2 tt vr6 and it's an Amazing souding car even stock and the dsg Gear box IS still Quick by today's standard! Just a bit heavy on the front end though and it's power delivery IS a bit too linear...

I have a 6speed tt mk2 with the vr6 I may have to upgrade to a turbo 😊 I wonder how much this would be?

Slam the heaters on full to bring it down quickly. It helps pulls some heat out of the cooling system from the heater core.

That Smile

As the owner of a 500 hp TT this warms my heart.

Misha l'homme qui pourrait aller plus vite, mais il est humble au point de s'arrêter des que ses suiveurs ont le sourire au visage...

Something something hot lap

uprate oil cooler and rad essential

The seat & chassis creaking from the geforces generated in the corners was a little funny.

smile and fear best combo :DD

Sooo oposite ... Misha want go fast and bored ... and owner have sutch a big smile 😂😂 so cute ❤

It would be nice to see this car back with a better tune/engine management, improved cooling and stickier tires.

VR6 engines have a high operating temperature, g we ts waaay hotter when t uned beyond the factory tune. Even with massive radiator and cooling fans, still not enough to cool it down enough.

Man ...Misha....You make them happy more then their wifes or gf 😂😂😂😂😂🤭

misha looked really pissed after the car overheated

Oiler cooler and radiators will fix the power loss problem. Honestly this is the whole reason I got away from boosted cars and went to N/A for my sports cars. All the power potential is great, maintenance and heat issues? Not so much.

Mk3 fiesta fi fi ,xr2i, xr2i 16v, rs turbo or rs1800. Memories there

To the owner, what a car and class act you are 😊

Great idea poor execution lol when he popped the bonnet one almost goes wow lol

Crazy and interesting! A turbo VR6 on a TT! Anyway big block in a small place really needs a massive colling solution to engine and turbo! Nur is the final test for all cars as we see some of stocks cars have problems too so imagine a modified car?! I think he need a better cooling and semi slicks tires and maybe 4WD to this power or reduce power to really stay in balance. Maybe this VR6 just aspirated fits perfect. yeahhh the mclaren don't understand nothing "wtf this TT from hell?!"

mishas face at first few corners lol its like WTF
