We live in a world full of records. From the tallest Lego tower to the most extensive carved pumpkin collection, you can find plenty of wacky records set by enthusiasts who want to be the "best." When it comes to racing records, though, it's easy to revert to the plain-old fastest lap or strongest engine titles. But, stuntman Terry Grant defied the norm when he set a remarkable world record at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in West Sussex, England, for an incredible feat. Now the holder of the "Fastest Mile Traveled on Two Wheels in a Four-Wheeled Vehicle" record, Grant shares the spotlight with the speedy Juke NISMO RS that completed the task on the first try with a time of 2 minutes 10 seconds.
The task of driving a Juke on two wheels is no new deed for Terry Grant, as he previously set the world record mile time in 2011 with a time of 2 minutes 55 seconds. When asked how he shaved a full 45 seconds off this go-round, Grant said he was "shocked at how much faster the Juke NISMO RS was."
While he may have stunned the world with his expert driving skills, the Juke NISMO RS is guaranteed to wow buyers with its exceptional blend of crossover utility and racing-grade power. Not only does this phenomenal model utilize the practical aspects compact SUV buyers seek, but it also adds aerodynamic accents, a NISMO-tuned suspension system, sporty front bucket seats and a turbocharged engine for performance that will leave speed enthusiasts drooling.
