Exclamation New World Record "J-Turn" in a Twingo by Terry Grant


More pics here...

Yesterday we told you about stunt driver Terry Grant setting a Guiness World Record by performing a J-Turn through a narrow gap of just 378 centimeters. A J-Turn is basically reversing a car in a straight line, throwing it into a 180-degree turn and driving away on the same same line. We bemoaned to ourselves that there was no video available at the time, but ask of the internet and ye shall receive. Watch Terry Grant's world record J-Turn after the jump, and note that the diagonal length of the Twingo used by Terry Grant in the stunt is 370 centimeters, so at some point during his record there was just 4 centimeters between car and barrier on either side.
