A journalist broke the world drift record

We had thought about it, here, when we were testing its "little brother" Toyota GT86, the Subaru BRZ, that we could drift it for hours (well, not that we didn't). However, that's what the journalist from South Africa thought and did to a... superlative degree, Jesse Adamswho broke the Guinness World Record in drifting, side-slipping a GT86 for a distance of 165 kilometers.


On 5 hours and 46 minutes of non-stop flapping Adams on a slightly wet track near Pretoria, South Africa. His goal was to break the Guinness World Record for a non-stop drift, held by Harald Muller from the 2014, who had covered a distance 145 kilometres, also with a GT86.



 

The record has not yet been confirmed by the organization, but it is documented and proven by the data of two independent GPS VBOX data-loggers that were installed on his Toyota.

The video you see is a "celebratory", truncated version of the Record. Which we could break we, with great pleasure, with any rear-wheel drive available to us, on the wet track of Elliniko. Bring it.
