This week’s ‘Mini’ edition of the V8 Sleuth Podcast powered by Castrol features Nathan Pretty sharing a couple of tales from his rookie season in Supercars.

In this snippet, Pretty talks about a wild moment in the early laps of the first race at the 1999 Winton round, where he and sister Nicole used an old Thunderdome trick to avoid a host of crashing cars to vault, Steven Bradbury-style, from the back of the field to the front!

He also shares his side of the Bathurst practice crash later that year that led to Larry Perkins’ now-infamous synopsis: “Young bloke, cold tyres, f***ed up.”

This Mini came from Episode 212 back in 2020, the first of a two-part chat with Pretty about his career. To listen to the rest of the chat, tap this link >> https://bit.ly/4iIf1Dh
