Drifting World Record set in the GT86
 
http://www.autoblog.com/2014/07/30/d...ta-gt86-video/

"German driver Harald Müller pummeled the old record to drift for 89.55 miles around a 0.15-mile (235.5-meter) course in Samsun, Turkey, in a Toyota GT86 (or Scion FR-S as it's known in the US). According to the Guinness World Records website, it took him 612 laps and 2 hours, 25 minutes and 18 seconds to manage the achievement. Sit back to watch a few minutes of the German's two and a half hours behind the wheel with the tail out."

as cool as it would be for the GT86 to "win" the record, im not quite sold on the record though. he spun out a few times and also went straight for a lil bit to get more speed again...

That wasn't footage of him getting the record. It was just a bit of video of him TRYING to get the record.
