Michel Disdier (Chevrolet Silverado n°07 – SS-Green Light Racing ):
“I am more than ever enthusiastic with the idea to again drive and control the car on Daytona circuit! Taking part of such an event represented already a big step in my career, returning to Florida for the third time announces being the perfect symbol of the passion which exists around our participation. A French in America, it is not banal in such closed and competitive discipline such as NASCAR! Since I began my American adventure, I unceasingly fought to conclude my projects and to prove with all the observers my level of performance. I am really delighted to collaborate once more with SS-Green light Racing team of Bobby Dotter. After a first participation in 2014 full with encouragements, it is the perfect combination to retry our chance and to invest durably the beds of the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series. The confidence and trust the team granted to me two years ago and the performances which we had displayed for a first experiment in the Truck pays off and opens to us very bright prospects on the entire race season. To conclude this fabulous project, which would be a first for a tricolor pilot, we work with partners of reputation, extremely engaged, motivated and moved by this amazing adventure which is as human as sporting. We are proud to represent them and to give our best to develop their image during one of the most popularized car race of the World! ”
