Josh Herrin Sets Guinness World Records® title for the Fastest Motorcycle Elbow Drag

On December 20, 2020, AMA Superbike Champion, Josh Herrin, set out to do what has never been done: set the world’s record for the fastest motorcycle elbow drag. Combining sheer speed and graceful precision, an elbow drag occurs when a racer balances his bike around a tight turn. For this attempt at Buttonwillow Raceway Park (CA), the pressure was on Herrin to do one like the world has never seen - make the breathtaking move of holding his elbow down for 30 meters at the lightning speed of at least 161kph.
