A new video series from the makers of the Legends: The Series, CompetitionPlusTV presents the best stories of drag racing as told by the legends themselves. In this episode, veteran nitro tuner Nicky Boninfante tells the story of the day Bob Gilbertson, with a bit of encouragement from Boninfante, not only destroyed a pit bike, but also a rental car, pavement at Las Vegas drag strip and the team owner's wallet. It's the story which never ceases to amaze many.
