A 16-year-old girl broke the slalom Guinness record with the Porsche 718 Spider

Guinness World Records for "Fastest Vehicle Slalom"

It's amazing.

A 16-year-old girl runs on the 2020 model Porsche 718 Spider, running from side to side between 50 straight cones, breaking the past record with slalom running time, September 2020 It was certified as a Guinness record on the 2nd.

The condition for the measured Guinness World Records challenge this time is "to get the fastest slalom running time without hitting one cone with 50 cones arranged at 15.05 meters intervals".

By the way, the record so far is "48.11 seconds" owned by the Chinese.

The 16-year-old girl set a new record of "47.45 seconds", which is more than 0.5 seconds.

The girl who set this record, Chloe Chambers, is said to have grown up in the Hudson Valley in NY.

He grew up watching F1 with his father and autocrossing with the Porsche 944 Turbo, which was finished to race specifications by his dad.

And she herself was already a regional champion at the age of eight, and three years later she was also a state champion. very! You probably have a sense of manipulating a car! !!

Of course, Chloe seems to like driving a car very much, and also likes to compete, and it seems that she enjoys being at the top of something.

The Porsche 718 Spider used this time is the most powerful in the 718 lineup, and the following specifications:

  • 4-liter horizontally opposed 6-cylinder NA engine
  • 420 horsepower @ 8,000 rpm
  • 6-speed manual, rear-wheel drive
  • 0-100km is 4.4 seconds
  • With Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) / Adaptive Bumper, the vehicle height is reduced by 30 mm from the normal 718 Boxster.
  • Tires are Michelin Sports Cup 2

In order to achieve a record in slalom driving, it is said that the driver needs to find the right balance so as not to lose momentum while driving.

In order not to slow down the driving speed, it is necessary to handle the car super-appropriately, even if it becomes oversteer too much or understeer too much.

I watched the video when I actually achieved this record, but at first

"Oh, this, in fact, once you get a feel for it, you can just repeat it."

I thought it was easy to see (too rude), but when I passed a few corns, it became "Oh, I can't do it". ← Naturally.

How much concentration, patience, and skill to have to run at this pace and the feeling of manipulating the car from side to side with 50 cones far away without a single mistake. ..

I was impressed ... I was almost drunk when I saw it ^^

And when I first saw it, I thought that it was too rude at first glance, but I immediately remembered the Porsche Truck Experience, a program like a Porsche driving class before.When I was allowed to run slalom..

At that time, of course, there weren't 50 cones lined up in front of me, only a few, but still ... oh, I remembered.

My slalom driving was a mess, and if I couldn't speed up at all, I couldn't run around the cone without waste (laughs). This is ↓

I remembered the slow heroic driving when I did it, and even more, I realized the awesomeness of this slalom running time record that she achieved ^ ^

Speaking of 16 years old in New York, I think the United States is the age at which you can get a regular driver's license to drive on public roads (unless the laws I know have changed).

Chloe-chan, I'm sure that she finally got a normal driver's license when she was 16 years old, and it seems that she will be able to drive in a car in her daily life.

I don't know what she wants to do in the future, but it seems that her skills in driving cars will continue to improve.

This is a slalom running record when it was certified as Guinness.

After driving, did you get drunk after all? I thought, but no, it's not me (laughs), so it's not. I think it's a relief from tension and a sense of relief and joy.

Anyway, congratulations on setting a new record ^^ It's amazing!
