Forty-one year old professional stunt driver Vesa Kivimäki recently teamed up with tire manufacturer
Nokian Tyres to attempt to break the world record for the Fastest side wheelie in a car -
a record that has remained unbeaten for 19 years.
The new record was achieved in a BMW 330 Diesel fitted with Nokian tyre, with the speed measured over
a set distance of 100 meters.
Vesa broke the previous record of 181 km/h (112 mph) set by Göran Eliason from Sweden on the two wheels
of a Volvo 850 Turbo in Såtenäs, Sweden back in 1997.
