There have been plenty occasions where blind persons took part in driving vehicles, and even trying different tricks and stunts.

There is even a land speed world record for a blind person, and it belongs to Mike Newman, who managed to reach 300 km/h in a Porche 911.

Now he decided to up his game and broke his previous record with a 323 km/h run on the Elvington airfield. The new car he drove was a Nissan GT-R tuned to some serious heights. Litchfield handled the prep work on the GT-R which now develops 1.200 Hp.

Other specifics on the car we don’t have, but even the power alone would deter many from stepping into the car. Even the standard Nissan GT-R is a scary beast. The blind Mike Newman was alone in the car during his record run, his only aid being radio directions received from his stepfather.
