Britain has a new World Record holder after Lloyd de Boltz-Miller set a new World Record for driving a kart solo for twenty four hours.
The 25-year old from Norwich broke South African Myk Prescott’s benchmark distance of 1,152.54km at 7:36am with three hours remaining on the clock. By 10:37am (1 October), a full twenty four hours after he started out, Lloyd had eclipsed Prescott’s 2008 achievement and established a new record distance of 1,289.12km (801.38 miles).
JLF Designs made sure Lloyd looked good as he pounded out the laps, with a special design especially for the event which featured holographic flake, prismatic and dayglo colours which really showed up under the Whilton mill floodlights.
