Record Breaker - Masato Kawabata - Nissan GT-R Nismo

Nissan and D1 Grand Prix champion speed
into the record books with fastest vehicle
drift ever - watch

#REPOST: Guinness World Records by Rachel Swatman

Published 08 April 2016

Nissan Middle East FZE has sped into the record books after extremely brave driver Masato Kawabata (Japan) achieved the Fastest vehicle drift ever at a staggering 304.96 km/h (189.49 mi/h), while driving a Nissan GT-R Nismo during an event at Fujairah International Airport, UAE, last month.

 

The drift champion broke the Guinness World Records title three times at 273.39, 304.96 and 296.79 km/h with an angulation of 55.21°, 33.56° and 34.42° respectively, traveling down the 3 km long airstrip.

Kawabata and Nissan significantly bettered the previous record of 217.973 km/h (135.44 mi/h) which was achieved by Jakub Przygonski (Poland) at Biala Podlaska Airport near Warsaw, Poland, in 2013.

 

The Nissan GT-R Nismo car used for the attempt was specially-tuned by GReddy Trust in order to maximize its agility and stability.

 

 

Samir Cherfan, Managing Director of Nissan Middle East commented on the incredible achievement: “Once again, Nissan has again broken a Guinness World Records title and has made international history in the UAE. The GT-R Nismo is one of the world’s most iconic supercars, proving time and again the incredible breadth of its capabilities, and has clearly demonstrated its performance leadership by beating the best drift cars out there.”

 

 

Not the first time this vehicle has entered the record books, a Nissan GT-R achieved an acceleration of 0–60 mph (0–100 km) in 3.5 seconds while completing a lap of the Nürburgring circuit in Nürburg, Germany in 2008, to earn the Guinness World Records title Fastest 0-60mph acceleration by a four seater production car.

GReddy event coverage from Formula Drift FDLB

Ken Gushi in the GReddy Racing - Nexen Tire - SR by Toyota 86 claims 3rd place in the 2016 Formula Drift Pro Championships season opener on the Streets of Long Beach course.

From Formula Drift press release: 

"Round 1: Streets of Long Beach kicked off the new season in dramatic fashion. The volume of rain, the variable surface conditions of the street course, which made for treacherous conditions in general during Friday’s practice, created a rain delay, which ultimately resulted in the Series making the decision to draw on a provision of the Sporting Regulations that allows the Series to forgo Qualifying in the face of inclement weather. Drivers were placed into the Top 32 bracket based on their 2015 ranking. The weather held up for the main competition and the drivers were able to give the fans a great showing to start the season..."

2016 updates for Long Beach:  http://formuladrift.networka.com/fd-rules-course-breakdown

Saturday's main competition day, started off dry, but just before the Top 32 match up of #2 qualifier, Ken Gushi's Toyota 86 vs. Faruk Kugay' 2JZ-powered Nissan S14, rain began to fall.  With great control, Ken drove great lead line in the slippery condition and avoided contact in the chase position, when his opponent made contact with the wall.  Ken took the win.

During the Formula Drift Half-time break, the GReddy Team debuted the new Boost Brigade Spring Collection.  It was great to see many fans support the new brand in the stands.  For more info. see the new online store:

Luckily as the weather cleared up during the break.  It allowed for a mostly dry exciting competition to the end of the event.  With packed Long Beach grandstands, the 16 brackets saw Ken Gushi advanced pass the VR-powered G37 of Charles Ng, with solid lead and chase runs.

In the Great 8, Ken Gushi went against Forrest Wang's 2JZ-powered Nissan S14.  Similarly to the his 32 battle (except in the dry) Ken laid down a dominate lead pass, building a large gap, which pressured his opponent to make a mistake in the 2nd run. This moved the the GReddy Team onto the Semi Finals.

In the Semi Finals, the GReddy Racing Nexen Tire SR by Toyota 86 of Ken Gushi faced off with the eventual round winner, Chelsea Denofa in his BMW E36.  In one of the most evenly matched battles of the day, (which could have easily went OMT -one more time), the Judges awarded Denofa the win. And with SR by Toyota teammate, Frederic Aasbo taking, second, Gushi was award the final podium spot.
