The fastest speed for a car driven blindfolded was 292.89 km/h (182.03 mi/h), achieved by Metin Senturk (Turkey), president of the World Handicapped Foundation, in a Ferrari F430 at Urfa airport, Urfa, Turkey, on 31 March 2010.
Metin Senturk is a popular Turkish folk singer, who has had no vision in both of his eyes since the age of three.
On one of the practise runs, Mr Senturk also reached a top speed of 303.62 km/h (188.7 mi/h).
The airport runway measured at 4,000 m (13,123.33 ft) long by 45 m (147.64 ft) wide. The event was organised to mark the opening of the World Handicapped Foundation, which was set up by Mr Senturk just a few month earlier.
The speed was measured with the help of Mark Hargreaves of Datron Technology (UK), by using the MicroSat speed sensor 20-227.
