Nissan Middle East has set a new Guinness World Record for the longest twin vehicle drifting. Two Nissan Z cars drifted around a track in Dubai at the same time without stopping for 28.52km. The record was set in the second attempt during the launch of the ‘Nissan 370Z Drift Experience’ which offers anyone the opportunity to learn and perfect the art of drifting. Speaking at the event, Samir Cherfan, managing director, Nissan Middle East, said: “With the accomplishment of setting a new Guinness World Record, we have proven again the strength of our vehicles by adding another Guinness record to our list. The Nissan Z is a very popular car in the drifting scene and this new record is yet another proof on the ability of this car to make drifting look so easy.” Nissan 370Z Drift Experience is a partnership between Nissan Middle East and the Prodrift Academy, which is carried out using Nissan 370Zs alongside the Prodrift Academy’s professional drift instructors in a safe and controlled environment. “Nissan has a strong focus on motorsports in the Middle East. Since safety is our priority at Nissan, we have partnered with the Prodrift Academy to provide a legal and safe platform for drifting fanatics in the region,” Mr Cherfan added. Mohammad Al Falasi, managing director of the Prodrift Academy, said: “Drifting has been a very popular sport among young people in the region and we are extremely proud to be able to develop this sport further among the fans in a safe and authorised environment, thanks to Nissan Middle East. Our professional instructors are dedicated to transforming young talents into world class performers with the help of the iconic Nissan Z due to its controlling power.”
