Uwe Nittel said his hands and feet were falling asleep at times during his five hours going around in circles.
Five hours? That's right, a first attempt ended just shy of the record when sensors failed on his Mitsubishi Evo X. Not one to be denied, Nittel jumped back into the car once it was fixed and went back out for the record on a new set of Kumhos.
45.63 km sideways later, Uwe did admit being a tad queasy but presumably, happy.
The record was achieved on an irrigated skid pad at the Sachsenring, Germany.
