2015 The Year Ahead (Nish Motorsports)
« on: March 24, 2015, 06:59:58 PM »
Just finished sitting down with Terry Nish and talking about the upcoming racing season.
Terry has decided to release the footage of the near disastrous run of the #998 streamliner during the 2014 World of Speed. (It's not for the faint of heart!)

In addition he talks about the plans for Royal Purple Streamliner and what he hopes will be "The Year We Hit 425mph!"

With Terry, it's always an interesting and frank discussion and I hope you enjoy it!!

It worked great. Mike's time in sprint cars must have helped because that's sure what it looked like. Great save!
