@waiwong1304 5 ай бұрын

I think the vlog is a good “once in a while” addition. Fans get to hear more from the Apex crew. We get to feel more connected to hear you guys normal interactions. The laughs, jokes, casual body languages, all great ways to add another dimension to this channel. I personally think, it’s important for the vlogs to stay “light”. Parts of the vlog where you RM talks about the V8 Schirmer started to feel too close to the regular videos, imho. In short, it’s a great addition. I would avoid long recaps and explanations as those are for the main videos.

@stephengregory229 5 ай бұрын

More vlogs please. I'm glad Misha has started doing them again on his second channel, but more the better. For the those of us who can't regularly come to the ring, it helps maintain a connection with our favourite place on earth

Hahaha I am in the video! It was filmed end of May 2021. Sergi showed me the Yaris that crashed shortly before and it was waiting for parts. It was the car that I booked but that I couldn’t drive. Took the Polo GTI instead with Misha. And Max had his arm broken, he told me before he signed the BMW

you have to return these vlogs. with the new concept of apex, it wil show the goodside of the ring, and its community. that it is not only about crashing and burnouts. most people also just go to have a day of fun. caespotting. or just talking about cars.

It’s so odd, at first the “old Robert” was a bit of a shock but by the end of the video it was like chilling with an old friend. Once again well done on the health changes, it’s a hell of a difference

I miss the old Vlogs that Misha did. The banter between everyone was really cool. Apex was like the neighborhood hangout spot you came to talk about things, left and went and did a couple things, came back and the same people plus new ones woukd be there. I never made it to the Ring. A nasty divorce from a nasty lerson took what life savings I had left and completely blew them away. My one dream that I had actually planned for...gone. i got the kids and all the exoense that goes along with them and my lawyer who promised me the moon got all the money and couldn't get me more child support or to keep my savings. Oh well. Maybe one day I will get my wish.

KZfaq at its best shows you new perspectives from experts in the field, and you certainly qualify. You gave great kids who obviously mean a lot to you. Seeing how you run a complex business in a turbulent time while doing everything at a high level is enlightening. I like Misha's videos but the infrastructure and personal stuff is more up my alley.

My favorite part of this video is how you treat your employees. More employers should watch this. It takes little effort to talk to your employees with dignity. "You have to earn respect, not command respect." You've earned the respect of your employees and followers alike. Sergei is hilarious. "Good but... not exactly what I said." 🤣

The audio is spectacular, right down to the birds chirping. …and while I’m aware of the copyright issue and that the GT2 is no longer a taxi, it needs to have its original livery. Hear me out. If in 50-60-70 years from now it becomes a barn find and requires a restoration, I can guaranty that it will be returned to its Apex Taxi Livery. It’s similar to a Gulf or Martini liveried car.

@markeames5115 5 ай бұрын

I lived in Sydney when I found this cool content that really bought the experience of being around the 'ring to life. Over time the Apex team members started to become important in a way that I/we hadn't seen before - what living around the worlds greatest track was really like. The way your played off one another, the team dynamic and the candid nature of the vlogs were addictive. Apex became the centre for a diverse group and over time I/we really felt like we knew you all. Misha's vlogs were hotly anticipated, Roberts insight to what Apex was about, track driving, car set up and interlacing the interactions with the drivers and Apex staff were so informative. A hotel is just a hotel but what you built around it made it what it is and the team couldn't have been better. I'm now based in the Uk and hope to get out to see you and visit the ring and surrounding roads soon. Perhaps some guides on what to see, what hidden gems are there to see/restaurants to go too, where to get the best ice cream or burger/hotdog/salad and roads to drive in the area would help make a visit more than just about experiencing the track? Education around how to approach a lap, car set up and key sections would be great for those of us who love the feel of track laps but don't have the experience of the 'ring would be great so that we don't annoy the locals quite so much?

When I first time saw this e36, I have thought that it was coolest e36 I have ever seen. Still think same. Even asked in some other video by mistake, "Where is e30 s54"😅 . It's amazing to think it was so many years ago and still excited about it.
