Having set sights on the Isle of Man TT lap record, rally ace Mark Higgins has managed to successfully better his current lap record in a heavily modified Subaru WRX STI.
Specially developed with Prodrive, the modified WRX STI features a body kit that includes a new front bumper with wide air dams, side skirts, a rear air diffuser, flared fenders and a massive wing.
He completed the 60.7km course in 17:49.75, which equates to an average speed of 204km/h, smashing his previously held record of 19:15 seconds that he set back in 2014.
The record-setting run is the first of four attempts Higgins is scheduled to make on the course record.
