He’s not a pro but there’s not another person in the world that’s driven as many different cars around the Nurburgring. Bugattis to Volvos. (His channel is epic.)

Anyway, he says the Z06 is the second best factory car he’s ever driven, and third over all including modified cars. If you watch his other videos you can see the speed he’s carrying into and through the turns is insane. He even downshifts in turns as he’s learning the car.

Claims sub 7 minute laps are doable.

He is a pro.  He races GT4 endurance now along with SuperGT and Jimmy in a BMW put together by Black Falcon.  They have done well, with podiums but have also run into car failures.

He doesn’t consider himself such. Says in the video racers and test drivers are better than him and could get much more out of the car.

He is humble and they look like carbon brakes, I was surprised also.  He did say they were odd in the first few corners, could be like race cars the brakes work best when hot.

Seems to be required on track days, convertibles and some race cars on normal days.  That car was a stock street car so most likely not required.  I am not saying he didn't need one but he was within the rules from what I could tell.  I watch most of his videos and also watch the live feeds when he and the other guys race their GT4 BMW.  (Technically the race in a sub category of GT4 type cars)

I think it was the GT2 IIRC. I think he drove the GT3 recently and was saying in that video that it wasn't quite as fast as the GT2. It's insane watching the speed he's able to carry through the corners, dude can drive!

They have open and track days. He ran this on an open day which means public to everyone, lots of extra traffic, vehicle modification limitations, and extra caution.

Sabine, RIP, was a complete machine, a cyborg-vehicle-operating-device.

Misha is good at what he does, and has a knack for figuring out new-to-him cars quickly. That said, he pushes, at times, way too hard; someday his channel will be gone and everyone will know why.

It is a toll road.

It can be closed though for private events, just like any road. Say if a car mfg wants to test their cars.

I'm not too educated on how the ring operates, but normal days it's just a toll road for people to travel on. Helmet optional and don't be an asshole.

It’s probably inevitable. There have been rumors of an exact replica being built in the U.S. for ages now. I could see Elon doing it at some point, especially after his 5 mile track fell through.

That was cool.

I doubt I'll ever get to drive the Nordschleife but on our way back from Nashville, I pointed out to my wife that there's a "drive a Corvette" experience in Bowling Green.
