This Nissan GT-R achieves the record for fastest drift

There are power slides and after that there are power slides– a 190-mile-per-hour, 30-degree drift in a greatly customized Nissan GT-R Nismo qualifies as the latter. It likewise qualifies as the brand-new Guinness World Record for fastest drift.

Driven by Japanese drift champ Masata Kawabata, this monstrous GT-R loads 1,380 hp. If that’s not high enough, all that power goes to the rear wheels only.

The work was completed as part of a collaboration between in between Nismo and GReddy Trust, and was originally checked at Japan’s Fuji Speedway before being shipped to the United Arab Emirate’s Fujairah International Airport. The run was finished on the airport’s 1.86-mile runway.

The most interesting thing about this feat, though, is how thoroughly it smashes the previous Guinness World Record. Kawabata had just 3 efforts, per Guinness rules, to best the old, 135-mph record made by Jakub Przygoński from Poland.

Nissan hasn’t launched video of the run yet.
