We've said it time and time again; world records are always meant to be broken. It's just a matter of when and where it's going to be.

Recently, the "when" and the "where" of the world's fastest drift->ke2756 record was answered when Poland’s ORLEN Team along with drifter Kuba Przygonski took a heavily-modified Toyota GT 86 packing close to 1,100 horsepower to a former military base in Biata Podlaska, Poland on September 3rd.

What ensued was nothing short of spectacular.

With arguably one of the world's most powerful GT 86s at his disposal, Przygonski was able to succesfully drift the Japanese drift car at 217.973 km/h (135.44 mph). In doing so, the Polish racer set a new Guinness World Record, now owning the record for world's fastest drift.

We honestly have no clue how many g's Przygonski was experiencing when he set that record but the mere fact that his neck seemed to be okay enough to allow him to celebrate the new record speaks to the kind of preparation he must have done before breaking this record.

It's an incredible feat that should be lauded, no matter how long its stands in the record books.
