YES, Ian MacKay CAN set new Guinness World Records!
How did these work in sync to provide Ian with a durable and efficient ride over the 23.5-hour long journey?
G-Trac: Helped Ian stay on his path with less course corrections and fatigue along the Sauvie Island course.
Durawatt High Speed Motors: Allowed Ian to capture the world record of driving 184.40 miles in a power chair in less than 24 hours, beating the past record by more than 10 miles.
SureStep Suspension: Absorbed many of the bumps and uneven terrain he encountered on the course.
LED Lights: Ian did not sleep during this record breaking attempt, which meant he needed to travel at night. The LED lighting system illuminated his path in the dark.
Ultra Low Maxx: Allowed Ian to find multiple comfortable positions so he could stay in the chair for over 24 hours.
LiNX Controls: Supported navigation on a windy road with small adjustments
Many congratulations to Ian and look out for more stories coming soon on this amazing record set by him!
